Founder

Founder and Medical Director, Skin Works Medical Spa
Dr. Matt Tahsini founded Skin Works Medical Spa in Torrance in 2014 and has practiced medicine for more than 20 years. He sees patients at the Torrance location and speaks English and Persian.
Under his medical direction, Skin Works has grown into a physician-led aesthetic practice with a shared clinical standard across injectables, laser and energy-based treatments, skin rejuvenation, medical wellness, and regenerative services. The same clinical environment also supports professional education for licensed medical providers entering or advancing in aesthetic medicine.
Skin Works does not perform surgery. When a patient’s goal is better met surgically, we say so and refer.
Professional Education
Skin Works is also a hands-on training center for licensed medical professionals entering or advancing in aesthetic medicine. Training takes place in the same Torrance clinical environment where our team treats patients, so education is grounded in real workflow, safety standards, treatment planning, documentation, and patient communication.
Our professional education includes injector training in neuromodulators and dermal fillers, as well as cosmetic laser training. Programs emphasize practical technique, anatomy, candidacy, live-model or hands-on experience where applicable, complication awareness, and the clinical judgment required to use aesthetic treatments responsibly.
For patients, that role matters for a simple reason: Skin Works is not only a place where aesthetic treatments are performed. It is also a place where medical professionals come to build the skills behind them.

Explore Laser TrainingSome goals are better served surgically than by anything a medical spa can offer. We tell patients when that is the case rather than selling them a series of treatments that will not get them where they want to go.
For those patients we refer to Adonis Plastic Surgery, our affiliated practice next door in Torrance. Adonis is staffed by board certified plastic surgeons and operates in a Quad A accredited surgical facility. Surgeon profiles, credentials, and accreditation details are on their site.
Most of this industry will not tell you what a treatment costs until you are sitting in the room. We publish our prices on our treatment pages instead. If a price is not listed, ask and we will tell you.
You can also get a written quote without coming in. Send photos and a description of what you are considering by text, email, or social message, and we will send a price back.
In more than a decade we have not gotten every treatment right. What we decided early on is that a patient who is unhappy should never have to fight for a response.
If something is not right, tell us. We bring you back in for a follow-up assessment with a provider at no charge, and we work with you until it is resolved. Tell any member of our team, or text us at (844) 759-6757. Dr. Tahsini owns this practice and stands behind it personally.
This is a promise about how we respond, not a promise of a particular medical result. No provider can guarantee a clinical outcome, and any medical spa that tells you otherwise is telling you something untrue. What we guarantee is that you will not be left on your own with a result you are unhappy about.

Authenticity
Please verify you are visiting an official Skin Works location. Some offices may attempt to imitate our name. For your safety and the best results, trust only official Skin Works locations. Skin Works has two locations: our flagship medical spa in Torrance and one other in El Segundo.
Careers
The standards we apply to patient care also shape how we build our team. Skin Works welcomes medical and aesthetic professionals who value clinical judgment, clear communication, continued learning, accountability, and long-term professional development.
For the right professionals, Skin Works offers more than a shift or treatment room. It is an environment where providers can deepen their skills, learn from an established aesthetic practice, develop areas of specialty, and contribute to a team that has served the South Bay since 2014.
