Meet the Masters

Jennifer Salerno, FNP-C, FMACP

Owner and Founder

Intuitive, Artistic, & Science-Led

Jennifer Salerno founded Skin Savvy in 2003 alongside Dr. Simona Arcan. After 13 years as an ER nurse at Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles, Jennifer was inspired to heal her own skin after years of stress from long shifts and life as a single mother.

With over 23 years of experience in medical aesthetics, Jennifer has built a career defined by innovation, intuition, and results that honor each patient’s natural anatomy. She has spent decades refining her signature technique – a philosophy rooted in balance, artistry, and an authentic approach to skin rejuvenation.

Today, Jennifer’s expertise extends far beyond technique. Her deep understanding of anatomy and biology allows her to design personalized, long-term treatment strategies that help her patients feel their best. She believes aesthetics should enhance how you feel in your skin, not change who you are.

Now expanding into the fields of functional medicine and longevity, Jennifer’s passion lies in uncovering the root causes of cellular aging and bridging the gap between skin and biological health. Her mission is to help people reclaim their power over their own health and well-being.

As a mentor and educator, she has trained countless providers to approach aesthetics with intention, confidence, and empathy. At her core, Jennifer remains an intuitive healer guided by science, artistry, and genuine connection.

Co-Founder and Medical Director

Technical, Empathetic, & Integrative

Born in Romania and raised in Chicago, Dr. Simona Arcan discovered her passion for medicine early on, inspired by her uncle, a general surgeon, who made a lasting impact on his community.

As the Co-Founder and Medical Director of Skin Savvy, Dr. Arcan brings her extensive surgical background and scientific expertise into a more integrative space of functional medicine and longevity. Her approach focuses on treating the whole person, not just the symptom, and empowering patients to take an active role in their long-term health.

Dedicated, genuine, and deeply skilled, Dr. Arcan embodies the values Skin Savvy was built on – innovation, empathy, and results that support both internal and external well-being.
