Skin Savvy Medical Spa was founded by Jennifer Salerno, RN in partnership with Dr. Simona Arcan in 2003 in Hermosa Beach, California. Skin Savvy has grown from an adorable and casual medical spa by the beach to Southbay’s premier and most distinguished medical aesthetic location!
Skin Savvy has also grown roots in Westlake Village, California after opening in 2017 bringing the experience and expertise into the beautiful Conejo Valley!
Jennifer started Skin Savvy as a single mother of three while working at Cedar Sinai as a full time E.R. Nurse. Her passion for healing herself was the driving force to shift into aesthetic medicine.
With 20 years devoted to mastering her craft as an aesthetic provider and nurturing a dozen thriving aesthetic nurses, Jennifer is on the cusp of an exciting new journey – the launch of Skin Savvy University. This unique initiative is aimed to train both novice and experienced nurses, arming them with the expertise to thrive in their careers. Jennifer’s influence will extend beyond our walls as she collaborates with other medical spas to elevate the industry as a whole
