I need to specify a synchronous reset in a counter. for that I have the two following descriptions:

ASYCHRONOUS RESET
ARCHITECTURE a OF prescaler IS
SIGNAL counter: UNSIGNED(22 downto 0);
BEGIN
Conteo:
PROCESS (Clk, Reset)
BEGIN
IF Reset = '0' THEN
counter <= "00000000000000000000000";
ELSIF (Clk'Event and Clk='1') THEN
counter <= counter + "00000000000000000000001";
END IF;
END PROCESS conteo;


SYCHRONOUS RESET
ARCHITECTURE a OF prescaler IS
SIGNAL counter: UNSIGNED(22 downto 0);
BEGIN
Conteo:
PROCESS (Clk, Reset)
BEGIN
IF (Clk'Event and Clk='1') THEN
IF Reset = '0' THEN
counter <= "00000000000000000000000";
ElSE
counter <= counter + "00000000000000000000001";
END IF;
END IF;
END PROCESS conteo;

However the sychrounous reset that I use occupies 10 Logic cells more than the other description according to rpt file.

Is there any other way to specify the sychronous reset tha makes for a smaller machine.?

Thanks
