About

Skincare expert and influencer who was named on Forbes' prestigious list of Top 100 Influencers in 2021. With over 900,000 followers on his alvaroplaton TikTok account, he has attracted his worldwide audience based on the breadth of knowledge he offers within his video uploads, which provide insight to dermatology, dermopharmacy, cosmetic and personal care products, ingredient awareness, and myths or facts about some of the cosmetics and cosmetic procedures available. 

Before Fame

Prior to commencing his college education, he earned scholarships in three different areas - publicity/marketing, communication/journalism, and audiovisuals. He initially wished to someday host a television program like The Ellen DeGeneres Show or El Hormiguero. However, when acne arrived both quickly and intensely, he pored himself into studying dermatology, cosmetic surgery procedures, and other potential solutions. He later earned his university expert degree in dermopharmacy and cosmetics. He launched his TikTok account in April of 2021 to help others learn about the products they used, their skin, and how to handle both.

Trivia

During a summer in college, he used all of his savings to travel to South Korea, as it is widely recognized as the "capital" of skincare, cosmetic surgery, etc. He ended up working in South Korea, which led him to earn several subsequent job offers and opportunities. Upon his college graduation, he became the recipient of the school's Best Student Award in the year 2019. He also later earned the Best Idea/Innovation from Sesderma and L'Oreal as well.

Family Life

From the ages of 15 to 18, he worked at his parents' jewelry store, where he initially learned about business and how to work with people.
