If you are reading this, odds are you have mastered a skincare routine, wash your face every day, and may have even visited us for a facial or two. But did you know that you should be showing your body the same love as your skin?
Joanna specially crafted new body treatments, now offered at both our Los Angeles Spa at the Sunset Tower Hotel and our New York City Salon on Fifth Avenue. The Supernova Body Treatment is one of our newest treatments that shows love to your skin from shoulder to toe.
Inspired by our celeb-favorite Supernova Facial, we incorporate the same skin-loving steps and techniques to bring out a hydrated glow all over.
The Supernova Body Treatment Includes:
- A full body aqua peel which gently removes dead skin cells and softens skin’s surface. This aqua peel contains glycolic acid and helps infuse various vitamins and nutrients into the skin. Your skin will feel baby soft!
- Next we use a nourishing body oil that helps calm the skin after the exfoliation from the aqua peel and hydrates all over.
- We then follow with (our personal favorite) full body Cryotherapy. Cryotherapy soothes inflammation, reduces redness and tightens the skin in a flash by boosting cellular activity.
- Lastly, we then finish up with a brightening Oxygen treatment. This infuses the skin with Joanna’s special blend of green tea, vitamin, aloe and hyaluronic acid serum to nourish the skin for an extended and revitalized glow.
The results after the Supernova Body Treatment are softer, more glowing, dewier skin with next-level hydration that makes the skin shine all over.
“The Supernova Body Treatment is for people who want a quick exfoliation and super hydration into the skin, and is especially good for those with sensitive skin.”, Joanna

Can You Combine XERF with Botox, Filler, or Lasers?
Yes, XERF may be incorporated into a treatment plan with Botox or other neuromodulators, dermal fillers, biostimulatory injectables, lasers and selected ultrasound procedures. XERF uses noninvasive radiofrequency energy to heat tissue and support skin tightening, while neuromodulators address expression lines, fillers restore volume, and lasers may target pigmentation or texture. However, these treatments are not automatically safe to perform together or on the same day. Radiofrequency heating may affect certain existing fillers, and sequencing depends on the product, treatment area, settings and medical history. At Joanna Vargas in New York City, medically guided consultations help determine whether XERF belongs in a personalized approach to skin rejuvenation.

XERF vs. Thermage vs. Ultherapy: How They Compare
XERF and Thermage use monopolar radiofrequency energy to heat tissue and support collagen remodeling, while Ultherapy uses microfocused ultrasound with visualization to target selected tissue depths. XERF uses dual-frequency RF technology (6.78 MHz and 2 MHz), while Thermage FLX uses a single RF frequency of approximately 6.78 MHz. Ultherapy can target specific depths, including 1.5, 3.0 and 4.5 mm, depending on the treatment area and protocol. All three are non-surgical options for selected skin-laxity concerns, but they differ in energy delivery, comfort, clinical evidence and treatment planning. No device is universally best; the right choice depends on your anatomy, skin laxity, goals and medical evaluation.

Why the DEJ Holds the Secret to Younger Skin
The dermal-epidermal junction (DEJ) is the structural foundation where the epidermis meets the dermis, and its deterioration drives visible aging. Clinical biopsy data from a 63-year-old male patient treated with E-50 Skin Booster after microneedling showed a 17% increase in rete ridge density, 52% increase in epidermal thickness, and 61% increase in basal keratinocyte density, demonstrating that targeted exosome delivery can restore the DEJ architecture that gives skin its density and firmness.
