Aivee Parqal: ‘It started as a dream’
A destination where treatments heal, rituals restore—and retail is truly therapy.
“What started as a simple dream has now become a reality we’re incredibly proud of,” says Dr. Aivee Aguiar-Teo, founder and medical director of the multi-awarded Aivee Clinics, of Aivee Parqal in Parañaque, the group’s seventh and newest clinic.
“When we started in 2009, clinics were very straightforward—focused on treatments, but not necessarily on the overall experience. We wanted to create something more human, more thoughtful, where patients felt truly cared for from the moment they walked in,” adds the well-travelled Aivee. “That idea stayed with us through the years and now, Aivee Parqal blends clinic, skin spa, and retail into one seamless, elevated experience.”
Aivee Parqal includes the Aivee Skin Spa, Aivee Clinic, and Aivee Skin Boutique. The latter is the brand’s first-ever skin retail space, providing premium skincare products to complement professional treatments.
“It was a dream because we were trying to build something we hadn’t seen before,” elaborates Dr. Z Teo, CEO of the Aivee Group. The couple has also seamlessly blended family, faith, work, and self-care in their lives—I see them as the true ambassadors of their brand. Seeing them, I think their dream was to share in a space like Aivee Parqal their own secret formula to a fulfilling life.
“We wanted to combine science, safety, and results with a sense of ease, warmth, and refinement. That vision became our foundation. And over time, it grew into something bigger than we initially imagined,” says Aivee, a devoted mother to three and daughter to Las Piñas Vice Mayor Imelda Aguilar and the late Mayor Nene Aguilar.
“I think the timing felt right because the dream had matured,” says Aivee. “Aivee Parqal reflects both our roots and where we see the future of aesthetic medicine.”
“When we first started, we had a dream, but not yet the full understanding of how to bring it to life in its most complete form,” continues Z. “Over the years, every clinic, every patient interaction, every lesson helped shape that vision more clearly. At the same time, the landscape changed. Patients became more discerning; they wanted more than just good results. They wanted a journey.”
Aivee Parqal is their response to that need for a journey, not just a treatment.
“It brings together everything we’ve built—the clinic, the skin spa, and retail—into one integrated experience that reflects where aesthetic medicine is today, and where it’s going,” concludes Aivee.
The glamorous grand opening welcomed over 200 guests—family, friends, “Aivee Leaguers” and celebrities, including Sharon Cuneta, Maricel Soriano, Judy Ann Santos, Heart Evangelista, Nadine Lustre, Bea Alonzo, Sarah Lahbati, Carla Abellana, Jake Cuenca, Singapore Ambassador Constance See and Tourism Assistant Secretary Sharlene Batin.
One of the highlights of the evening was the dramatic fountain reveal at the heart of Parqal Mall. A majestic tree adorned with glowing orbs stood at the center as the Aivee Parqal logo—a sleek four-petal design in luminous white—illuminated the fountain floor in a stunning display of light and water.
“This is more than just a new clinic—it’s our vision of bringing world-class aesthetics, wellness, and lifestyle together in one exceptional space,” says Z.
