ASAP
Daily Skincare Routine
If you have been slacking on skincare or have yet to find a good routine, now is the time! Incorporating quality products that are chosen based on your skin type can help remove impurities or correct concerns. Once you find the right products, it is important to stay committed. The Aesthetic Center carries the ZO® Skin Health product line that is a great option for an updated skincare routine. The Programs & Kits are designed for various skin types, and each kit comes with step-by-step directions that are sure to help you achieve your goals.
9-12 Months Before
Laser Hair Removal
Worry about one less thing on your wedding day by starting laser hair removal treatments nine months to a year in advance. Unlike waxing, which removes hair from the follicles and lasts a few weeks, or shaving, which is even less permanent, laser hair removal results last years. Laser hair removal uses highly concentrated pulses of light to safely kill the protein cells in your hair follicles from the treated area. Four to eight sessions are needed depending on the area of hair removal. Starting these appointments as early as possible allows you to reach optimal results, as sessions are spaced out every four to eight weeks.
CoolSculpting®
Don’t let anything distract you from feeling your best on your big day. If you have areas of stubborn fat that won’t go away, it might be time to consider CoolSculpting, specifically CoolSculpting Elite. This FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment uses fat reduction and body contouring technology to freeze fat cells and naturally eliminates them. Treatment areas include under the jawline, under the chin, upper arms, back fat, bra fat, the flank area, abdomen, thighs, and under the buttocks. There is little to no downtown after your appointment, and results can be seen as early as four to six weeks after the first session. These results are long-term and natural-looking. Regain your confidence with CoolSculpting Elite!
2–3 Months Before
Microblading
Consider scheduling a microblading appointment to receive the perfect camera-ready brows. This treatment is a semi-permanent makeup technique of applying fine, hair-like strokes to help you reach natural-looking brows that perfectly flatter the rest of your face. There is little to no downtime, with immediate results following your appointment. Plan to return four weeks later for a follow-up appointment for any touchup needs.
Halo® & BBL® Treatments
Laser and light treatments are highly effective in addressing a variety of concerns such as acne, scarring, skin discoloration, and so much more. The Halo treatment is designed to remove years of damage from your skin, while the BroadBand Light (BBL) is designed to help correct color and complexion issues. Our team can customize your laser treatment appointments to target your specific skin concerns. Laser treatments can help achieve any bride’s desired glow!
1 Month Before
Injectables & Fillers
Injectables and fillers, like BOTOX®, Dysport®, and JUVÉDERM® are great options to enhance your natural beauty before you say, “I do”. If you notice added worry lines from the stress of planning or feel like added volume will complete your look, schedule an appointment one month out. BOTOX and Dysport can help effectively improve the appearance of frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines. JUVÉDERM can help add volume to plump lips, smooth lines, lift and contour cheeks, and shape the chin. Fillers produce immediate results, while injectables may take four days to take effect. Booking your appointment one month before gives you the perfect amount of time for touch-ups if needed.
Chemical Peel
Refresh and renew your skin by treating yourself to a chemical peel. This treatment targets the outer layers of skin that may have been damaged by sun, aging, or acne. It can reduce fine lines and wrinkles, acne, scars, uneven skin tone, and other imperfections to reveal more youthful and radiant skin underneath. We offer two different chemical peels that are customized based on your skin concerns. Your skin will need some time to shed and recover after the chemical peel, so make sure to schedule this treatment early enough.
1 Week Before
Hydrafacial
Relax and destress the week before your wedding by scheduling a Hydrafacial. This multistep and customizable facial deep cleans, exfoliates, and extracts impurities from your pores. Tailored to your specific skin concerns, a Hydrafacial can address issues such as oily skin and acne, dryness, and flakiness, enlarged pores, fine lines, wrinkles, or hyperpigmentation. Immediate and visible improvements can be seen following your appointment.
