We had the good fortune of connecting with Alexis Renda and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Alexis, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I was new to Miami and saw a void in the aesthetic skincare space. I wanted to marry the concept of injectables and bespoke skincare treatments in an ultra-luxe environment. No more stale doctors offices or facial studios with long menu items and add-on costs. My goal was to offer clients what is best for them without the paradox of choice. We eliminated confusing options and curated a tailor-made for you experience. We offer the most in-demand devices, with highest quality skincare and injectables in a sanctuary of self-care. It was all from being a client myself and wanting what is best for those who come in our door every day.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
When we were designing ALEXIS LAUREN, we knew we wanted to create a unique space unlike any other. We are a small business, owned and operated by a husband and wife, medically backed beauty collective. We cater to our clients and their needs with highly curated treatments in a space you can feel relaxed. We want people to feel good about their skin and confident their needs and concerns will be met when they enter ALEXIS LAUREN. We have an abundance of services including injectables, custom facials, microneedling, chemical peels and skincare products you can shop in-store or online at alexislauren.com

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
My husband and I are true creatures of habit and repeat the same things over and over. We have friends from out of town visit often, as I moved to Miami from Orlando. We live in Coconut Grove, very close to ALEXIS LAUREN, which is why we chose this location.

We order from Pura Vida daily, so this would be a must for breakfast! We have so many amazing workout studios by us. My husband goes to Anatomy daily and I am a lover of classes, Breakfree Movement, Pure Barre and Tremble. We would start our day with a workout 🙂

I would obviously take them to ALEXIS LAUREN for a treatment, what guest doesn’t love to come to a self-care sanctuary! They also need to load up on some sunscreen for their travels!

Miami is the best for outdoors, sun, boating and the water. We would take our friends boating for a few hours and enjoy the best of Miami on the water.

For dinner, CocoWalk is incredible! It is so lively, we always see our amazing neighbors and the best places around! What better way to end a day on the water than at your local restaurants. I love walking around our neighborhood.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?

I am a true believer in if you want to make something happen, with the right mindset, positivity, and incredible work ethic, you can do it. There is nothing we cannot learn from someone or online now, but with the right support system, we can achieve more. My husband Michael is this support system for me. He has never doubted any idea or plan I have and is always there to encourage my dreams and help me to follow through with them.
