We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Alexandra Carvajalino a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Alexandra, so good to have you with us today. We’ve always been impressed with folks who have a very clear sense of purpose and so maybe we can jump right in and talk about how you found your purpose?
I found my true purpose in my three daughters, who are not only my greatest blessing but also my partners in creating a MedSpa filed with love, passion and family values, working with my three daughters makes our space more than just a business, it’s a sanctuary where care, connection and dedication come together to offer our clients a truly heartfelt experience.
I have a passion for skincare, beauty, and overall well-being. Over the years, I’ve seen how the right treatments can transform not just skin but also confidence and self-esteem. My journey started with hands-on experience, constantly learning, and perfecting techniques, but it envolved into something bigger-helping others grow in this industry through education and business ventures.
Whether it’s through my medspa, training aestheticians, or developing new concepts, my purpose is to make a lasting impact by enhancing both beauty and wellness in a meaningful way.
Let’s take a small detour – maybe you can share a bit about yourself before we dive back into some of the other questions we had for you?
I’m a master aesthetician with over 16 years of experience in skincare, specializing in advanced treatments like microneedling, facials, and rejuvenation therapies. I’ve performed over 10,000 microneedling treatments with excellent results, and I also offer specialized training for aestheticians through my microneedling master class. My gol is to help both clients and professionals achieve the best skin possible while elevating the beauty industry with innovative techniques.
What excites me most about my work is the power of transformation-not just in how people look, but in how they feel. skincare isn’t just about beauty; it’s about confidence, self care, and overall well-being. I love seeing the glow on my clients’ faces, not just from their skin improving but from the renewed sense of self assurance they gain.
Beyond treatments, I’m passionate about education and business. I run a successful medspa in For lauderdale, which won the “Best of Florida” award in 2023, and I’ve expanded into teaching through my microneedling courses. My brand is growing beyond skincare as well. I’m also working on a clothing brand designed for people who want to feel confident and confortable from the gym to the beach to a night out.
There’s always something new happening! Whether it’s launching innovative treatments at my medspa, expanding my training programs, or growing my brands, I’m committed to bringing high-quality products and services that elevate both beauty ad wellness. Stay tuned for upcoming events, products launches, and exciting new ventures!
If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
Looking back on my journey, three qualities and skills have been the most impactful: resilience, continuous learning, and passion for helping others.
1. Resilience – My journey wasn’t always smooth. I struggled with acne in my younger years, and it deeply affected my confidence. That personal struggle fueled my determination to find real solutions, not just for myself but for others going through the same challenges. Acne caused me a lot of suffering, but it also gave me a purpose—it made me relentless in my pursuit of skincare knowledge and effective treatments. For anyone just starting out, my advice is to embrace your struggles because they can become your biggest strengths. Your challenges will help you connect with clients on a deeper level.
2. Continuous Learning – After finishing school, I was fortunate to work with Dr. Shino Bay, who was a true blessing in my life. He was my first and only job before I opened my own business, and he taught me everything I know. To this day, he continues to be a mentor, guiding me through different stages of my career. The knowledge and experience I gained working alongside him shaped the way I approach skincare and aesthetics. My advice? Find a mentor—someone whose expertise you admire, who challenges you to be better, and who genuinely wants to see you grow. Learning never stops in this industry, so always stay curious and open to new techniques, technologies, and innovations.
3. Passion for Helping Others – Skincare is not just about treatments; it’s about transforming lives. Seeing people regain their confidence and feel beautiful in their own skin is what keeps me motivated every day. That passion also led me to teaching, where I now help other aestheticians refine their skills and build their own success. If you’re starting out, focus on your clients—listen to them, understand their concerns, and genuinely care about their results. When you prioritize people over profits, success follows naturally.
For anyone at the beginning of their journey, my biggest advice is to stay patient, stay dedicated, and never stop learning. Find a mentor, embrace your challenges, and let your passion guide you—because when you truly love what you do, success is just a matter of time.
One of our goals is to help like-minded folks with similar goals connect and so before we go we want to ask if you are looking to partner or collab with others – and if so, what would make the ideal collaborator or partner?
Yes, I’m open to collaborations! I love working with individuals and businesses that align with my vision in skincare, wellness, fashion, and aesthetics. Here are a few ways we can collaborate:
•Skincare: I’m interested in partnering with skincare brands, aesthetic professionals, and wellness influencers who are passionate about high-quality treatments and education.
•Open to collaborations with fitness influencers, swimwear retailers, gyms, wellness studios, and content creators who align with an active lifestyle.
• Education & Training: As a master aesthetician with 16+ years of experience, I offer training programs for skincare professionals. If you’re in the beauty industry and want to collaborate on workshops or courses, let’s chat!
We also love collaborating with all types of businesses, including clothing brands, restaurants, and wellness spaces, to create fun and beautiful events that bring people together. Our events are all about sharing clients, cross-promoting brands, and creating unforgettable experiences for our communities.
