Aki (Akiyo) Contreras

State Board Licensed Esthetician

Originally from Japan, Aki’s passion for skincare began with her own journey through eczema and sensitive skin. After years of struggling with skin flare-ups, she became determined to better understand the connection between skin health, lifestyle, and overall well-being.

Through holistic living, mindfulness, meditation, and professional skincare, she discovered that even reactive skin can improve with the right care. This experience inspired her to pursue esthetics and help others navigate their own skin concerns with confidence.

Aki’s approach combines gentle, personalized treatments with a calming Zen-inspired experience. She believes skincare is not only about improving the skin, but also about creating a moment of relaxation, balance, and self-care.
