Valeriya Semenyuk founded Skinnovation after moving to San Francisco from Ukraine. The business has operated as an advanced skincare clinic since 2014, and it added medical aesthetic treatments after years of skincare services. According to the site, the clinic has treated more than 5,000 clients, and its Yelp listing shows a 5 out of 5 rating from more than 90 reviews.
A first visit typically begins with a free 60-minute medspa consultation, where the team reviews the skin and builds a treatment plan around the client's needs. Facial services run from short mini treatments to 90-minute first-time sessions that include a VISIA skin analysis. Many treatments can be combined, such as HydraFacial with microcurrent or DMK enzyme therapy, and the clinic offers flexible scheduling and online booking.
The site describes DMK as its specialty and says the clinic has been recognized as Northern California's top DMK clinic for seven consecutive years, with awards listed for 2017 to 2024. It calls itself the pioneer DMK provider in San Francisco. For HydraFacial, the site claims more than 10 years of expertise and notes that treatments can be adjusted to the client.
Medical director Dr. Nazira Mojadidi provides medical oversight for the treatments, according to the site. The clinic offers the Aerolase Neo Elite laser, which the site says is FDA-cleared for 36 conditions and is the first laser of its kind offered in San Francisco. SkinPen microneedling, also FDA-cleared, is offered for skin texture and acne scars.
The studio is at 1618 Union Street, between Franklin and Gough streets. It is open Tuesday to Saturday from 10:00 AM to 6:30 PM and closed Sunday and Monday. Clients can call 415-857-3995 or email appointments@skinnovation.care. Street parking is available on Union Street and nearby side streets, and a public garage is two blocks away. Private treatment rooms and complimentary beverages are included.
Builds a custom plan for each client and aims for skin that strengthens over time rather than quick fixes, combining medical expertise with spa-style care and science-based European techniques.
The studio is calm and carefully planned, with a restful feel.
