Founder + Licensed Aesthetician

Meet Julie, the mastermind behind Alchemy Aesthetics! Born into a medical family, she has always been passionate about skincare and healthcare, and that's why she created Alchemy Aesthetics – to bring the two worlds together. With her clinical background and Summa cum laude in Aesthetics, Julie's treatments are not only effective, but they're also personalized to each client's specific needs.

Growing up in the Philippines instilled in her a strong sense of ethics and social responsibility, which is evident in her practice. After emigrating to New York at a young age, she's lived and worked in different parts of the US and finally, settled in Cary, North Carolina with her husband, son and her adorable guinea pigs.

At her downtown Cary practice, she's dedicated to helping her clients achieve their best skin ever, and that's not just about treating their "skin pain points", but also about alleviating the mental and emotional anguish that can come with common skin issues. Her goal is to educate and empower her clients to make informed decisions about their skincare journey. Come, visit her and see for yourself how she can transform your skin, and in turn, your confidence!
