Skin Synthesis' Medical Receptionist & Patient Coordinator, Danielle Vargas, shares her aesthetic secrets and must-have treatments!

"I have struggled with sensitive, red, and irritated skin my whole life. No matter what products I tried, I have never found a skincare regime that I felt was effective and worth the price and effort.  Only recently after working with Jenny did I learn about rosacea and how difficult treating it can be. She started me on a new calming skincare regime with Epionce products and prescription strength azelaic acid cream with a future treatment plan for combatting my rosacea with BBL laser treatments.  After just a couple months of using my new skincare products, the redness has calmed, and the texture of my skin is much smoother. I have received compliments from my friends and family that my skin is looking much healthier and that my rosacea is noticeably better than before!

My skincare regimen involves double cleansing morning and night with the Epionce Gentle Foaming Cleanser, then applying the prescription azelaic acid cream, then applying a mix of Epionce’s Renewal Calming Cream and Priming Oil. For sun protection I use ISDIN’s Eryfotona Actinica SPF and occasionally as an added boost of moisture I use Epionce’s Enriched Firming Mask.  

I started my aesthetics journey with Botox for my very prominent forehead wrinkles that I was very self-conscious about. My makeup would always crease and leave lasting lines. Once I got Botox to smooth out the lines, I felt more comfortable and confident with my skin and was able to wear less makeup. 

After seeing Jenny a few times for Botox, I told her about my interest in lip filler. It was life changing! With just one syringe of Juvederm filler I felt like I looked more mature and feminine. As a hobby I sew costumes and attend cosplay conventions often. After these treatments, I could really see a huge difference in my confidence in the photos taken of me at events.  

When I started working with Jenny, I learned that there are many other areas and uses for filler besides lip injections. We created a comprehensive treatment plan for me with a goal of restoring my facial shape to a heart shape using botox and filler. My masseters were injected with Botox Cosmetic to help slim my lower face. Then Juvederm filler was added to my cheeks, jawline, and chin to lift, define, and contour my face. I am SO happy with my treatments. Although I know none were a necessity, these subtle enhancements have greatly improved my confidence and understanding of preventative measures for aging."
