Seen & Supported: A Different Approach to Aesthetic Care
Aesthetic care doesn’t have to feel pressured or performative. Nurse Practitioner Roxanna Barzegar shares how her mental health background informs a nervous system-aware, honest, and empowering approach to injectables—one that helps you feel like you, not someone else.
When I first stepped into the world of aesthetics, I’ll be honest—I was intimidated. Not by the medicine or the technique (I’m a dual-certified Family and Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, after all), but by the pressure. The pressure to look perfect. The pressure to keep up. The pressure to erase any sign of age, exhaustion, or softness from a face that’s been through real life.
But here’s the truth: your face isn’t a flaw to be fixed. It’s a story to be honored.
My approach to aesthetic care is deeply informed by my mental health background. I don’t just see skin or structure. I see the whole person—nervous system and all. I listen for what’s really driving the desire for change. I pace sessions so they feel calm and grounded. And I design treatments that enhance, not erase, what already makes you you.
Because how you feel during your appointment matters just as much as how you look afterward.
This is a space where you don’t have to perform or pretend. You don’t have to know all the lingo or have an "ideal" feature in mind. Maybe you just want to look a little more rested. Or a little more like you after a hard season. That’s enough.
I use FDA-approved products like Botox and dermal fillers with precision, intention, and transparency. And I’ll always tell you if I think less is more.
My treatments are shaped by real conversations, not trends. They’re paced to support your nervous system, not rush it. That’s not just a vibe—it’s actually backed by research. Studies have shown that a regulated nervous system improves our ability to heal and feel safe in clinical environments (see Porges' Polyvagal Theory).
Also, let’s be real: this stuff can be fun. Seeing a client light up in the mirror because they feel like themselves again? That’s the magic. No ring lights or filters required.
In a world that often tells women to do more, fix more, chase more—I’m here to offer a different message:
You can pause. You can soften. You can be seen.
And you can feel at home in your own skin again.
