Meet Alice

For more than three decades, Alice Panayotti-Duff has been helping clients feel confident in their skin.

As a licensed medical aesthetician, Alice brings years of hands-on experience, extensive skincare knowledge, and a refreshingly personal approach to every appointment. She believes great skincare isn't about chasing every new treatment or trend. It's about understanding your skin, choosing what actually works, and creating a plan that makes sense for you.

Alice began her career in aesthetics in 1989 and has spent decades working in skincare, medical aesthetics, and alongside professionals in medical spa and plastic surgery settings.

Over the years, treatments and technology have changed tremendously. Alice's philosophy has stayed remarkably simple: listen first, understand the client's goals, and recommend treatments thoughtfully.

That experience allows her to look beyond a single concern or treatment and consider the bigger picture of your skin's health, history, and changing needs.

An appointment with Alice begins with a conversation.

What are you noticing about your skin? What bothers you? What are you already using at home? What are your goals? And, importantly, what actually fits into your life?

From there, Alice can recommend treatments and professional skincare based on your individual needs rather than a predetermined package or whatever happens to be trending online.

Her goal is for clients to understand their skin and feel confident about the choices they're making for it.

No pressure. No endless list of things you suddenly "need." Just knowledgeable, personalized care.

Skin changes. Life changes. Your skincare can change with it.

Alice works with clients across different ages and stages, addressing concerns such as texture, tone, dryness, sun damage, signs of aging, and overall skin health.

Her approach isn't about trying to make skin look twenty years younger. It's about helping your skin look healthy, refreshed, and beautifully cared for now.

What began as Alice's skincare practice has grown into a welcoming destination for beauty and wellness in South Pasadena.

Alice Aesthetics is home to a small group of independent professionals offering aesthetics, massage and bodywork, beauty services, and mental health care.

Each professional operates their own independent practice, while sharing a common space designed to feel comfortable, personal, and a little different from the traditional spa or clinical experience.

At the center of it all is the philosophy Alice has built her career around: expert care should still feel personal.

Whether you've been seeing Alice for years or you're walking through the door for the first time, you don't need to know exactly which treatment to book.

Come in, talk about your skin, and start from there.
