Broker Biography

Introduction

John Bergano, Founder and CEO of Aesthetics Card, works through his venture to support businesses across the vast landscapes of healthcare, wellness, and beauty with resources for credit, financing, and advisory services. As a Director of M&A Services with TREP Advisors, John works through the firm as representation for sellers.

John began his career in luxury hospitality, moving from food & beverage operations to sales & marketing across hotels including The Ritz-Carlton and restaurants including Yamashiro Hollywood.

In 2015, John co-founded Pasadena, CA-based medical aesthetics practice Contempo Aesthetics with wife, Dr. Rachel Reyes-Bergano. As Director of Operations with Contempo Aesthetics, he saw the practice lifecycle through from bootstrapped start-up to acquisition by KKR-backed SkinSpirit in May 2023.

During that time, John partnered Contempo Aesthetics with L’Oreal’s SkinCeuticals to become a flagship location. The practice also achieved HydraFacial Black Diamond status every year from 2018 until 2023. John was invited to be founding faculty for Galderma’s GAIN Business program, served on Allergan’s MedSpa Advisory Board, and consulted with Allergan Data Labs.

Aesthetics Card was self-funded into existence and John holds a U.S. Patent (No.: 11924200) for his work underwriting healthcare credit card applications. The program has been issued by Affiniti Finance since 2023.
