our team

Dr. Reyes-Villa

Daniel Reyes-Villa, MD
Medical Director & Owner

Dr. Daniel Reyes-Villa is the Medical Director and team leader at Cataleya Aesthetics. He earned his medical degree in 1996 in his native Colombia, where early in his training he worked closely with plastic surgeons and became inspired by the transformative impact aesthetic medicine can have on people’s lives.

After relocating to the United States, Dr. Reyes-Villa completed his residency in Family Medicine at AMITA Health Saints Mary and Elizabeth Medical Center in Chicago in 2008. He went on to practice with San Jose Medical Group and Evergreen Urgent Care before becoming an independent practitioner in 2018. In 2019, he partnered with his wife, Olga, a Registered Nurse, to found Cataleya Aesthetics.

Dr. Reyes-Villa believes in a holistic approach to care—one that supports both physical and emotional well-being. He emphasizes thoughtful assessment, open communication, and collaboration with each patient to develop personalized treatment plans that lead to meaningful, lasting results.

Outside of medicine, Dr. Reyes-Villa has a deep love for cinema and the fine arts. He enjoys playing multiple musical instruments, composing songs, and sharing his creative interests with his three children. During your visit, you may hear a movie quote or share a laugh—he believes humor and positivity are essential parts of connection and communication.

Dr. Reyes-Villa also founded the Norma Villa Foundation in honor of his mother’s legacy, supporting and encouraging folkloric artistic expression in Colombia.

Olga Dzhulay

Olga Dzhulay, RN, BSN
Owner | Aesthetic Nurse

Olga Dzhulay has been a Registered Nurse since 2004 and genuinely loves what she does. She’s passionate about helping patients feel confident and at ease, with an aesthetic approach that focuses on subtle, natural enhancements.

After beginning her nursing career in Labor and Delivery, Olga expanded her clinical expertise to include medical aesthetics in 2019. She enjoys building real connections with her patients, taking the time to listen, and guiding them through treatments so they feel comfortable every step of the way. Seeing her patients’ excitement when they love their results is one of the most rewarding parts of her work.

She also believes deeply in the importance of self-care — especially in the fast-paced Bay Area. While family and career often take priority, Olga values helping patients find balance and feel their best both physically and emotionally.
Outside of work, Olga enjoys traveling with her family, dancing and attending Zumba classes, cooking, and caring for her many plants. If there’s music playing, you may even catch her dancing along.

Earlier in her career, Yulia worked as a pediatric home health nurse, an experience that shaped her gentle, patient-centered approach to care. Today, she focuses on aesthetic nursing, helping patients feel confident, informed, and supported throughout their treatment journey.

Outside of work, Yulia loves spending time with her two sons. She’s also an avid reader and the organizer of a Russian-speaking book club in South San Jose—so if you’ve read a great book, feel free to mention it. She just might add it to her list.
