Miami is making its claim as the aesthetic skincare capital of America with new spas, best-in-class doctors and of course, the clientele that can afford it all.
However, Alexis Lauren Collective - a new beauty hub opening next month in Coral Gables - doesn’t want to be your average quick fix destination. Helmed by husband-and-wife duo, Dr. Michael Renda and Alexis Renda, this medically backed collective marries the best of injectables and aesthetics set in a dreamy, neutral interior to truly be an escape with an experience that’s highly personalized.
Future guests can expect cult-favorite products like Biologique Recherche, Skinbetter Science, and iS Clinical with the finest devices for skin treatments, including celebrity-favorite Oxylight Ionix among others.
Below, an interview with co-founder Alexis Renda in anticipation of her new Miami business venture.
What inspired you to start your own beauty collective?
Alexis Renda: When we moved to Miami several years ago, I was looking for a place for injectables and facials and I couldn't find an experience I loved. So, Michael and I started discussing what was missing in the space and what it would take to open a beauty collective that was luxurious and also offered bespoke treatments that really catered to the client and their needs. We wanted to marry the concept of injectables with high-end, highly curated skincare treatments.
Have you always been passionate about beauty?
Yes, I have loved the beauty industry ever since I was a child! I was a ‘90s baby and read every copy of Seventeen and CosmoGirl magazine I could get my hands on—I even asked for retinol in middle school.
What was your earliest beauty obsession?
I had so many obsessions and they were not good (ha)! Do you remember Sea Breeze and St. Ives Apricot Scrub?
What can we expect at Alexis Lauren when doors open?
Our entire concept is built on serving others and making people feel good about their skin. We want people to feel relaxed, present, and confident that their individual needs and concerns will be met the second they walk into ALEXIS LAUREN. Our service menu is really tailored to serve the client—not overwhelm them—and our product lines are highly curated for maximum efficiency. You can expect a completely personalized experience without hidden add-ons.
