Every bride, groom, or spouse-to-be wants to look their best on their wedding day, and a good skincare routine can help achieve just that. Here are some tips for skincare for those getting ready to walk down the aisle:
Start early: It is always a good idea to start a good skincare routine at least 6 months before your wedding day to give your skin time to adjust and see visible improvements. This will also give you time to address any skin concerns or issues that may arise.
Consistency: Consistency is key when it comes to skincare. Stick to a regular routine that includes cleansing, toning, moisturizing, and sunscreen to ensure that your skin stays healthy and hydrated. We always say that 20% of progress happens in the treatment room, while 80% happens at home, so don’t slack on the home care!
Professional help: Consider consulting a skincare professional like an esthetician to help create a customized skincare routine that addresses your specific concerns and skin type. They can also recommend treatments like facials, chemical peels, or microdermabrasion to help improve your skin's texture and appearance.
Diet and hydration: What you put into your body can also affect your skin's appearance. Eat a healthy, balanced diet rich in vitamins and antioxidants, and drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated from the inside out.
Sleep and stress management: Lack of sleep and high levels of stress can lead to dull, tired-looking skin. Make sure to get enough sleep and practice stress-management techniques like meditation or yoga to help keep your skin looking its best.
Avoid new products: Avoid trying new skincare products or treatments too close to your wedding day as they may cause adverse reactions or unexpected results. Stick to what has worked for you in the past and avoid any potential risks.
Let’s dive a bit deeper into skincare procedures that are always a hit with our spouses-to-be!
Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life, and it is natural to want to look and feel your best. Pre-wedding facials and procedures can be a great way to achieve a radiant and glowing complexion for your big day. Let’s explore some of the most popular pre-wedding facials and procedures and discuss their benefits.
Tox & Fillers
If you're looking for a quick and easy way to refresh your appearance before your big day, consider neuromodulators and fillers.
Neuromodulators (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin) is a popular treatment that can smooth out wrinkles and lines on the face. It's especially effective on forehead lines, crow's feet, and frown lines. The treatment is quick and virtually painless, and the results can last for up to six months.
Fillers (Juvederm, Restylane, Radiesse, Scuptra), on the other hand, are used to add volume and contour to the face. They can be used to plump up lips, smooth out deep lines and wrinkles, and enhance cheekbones. The treatment is quick and the results are immediate, making it a popular choice for brides-to-be.
Why Choose Neuromodulators and Fillers for Your Pre-Wedding Procedures?
Quick and easy: Neuromodulators and fillers are both quick and easy treatments that can be done in a single session.
Immediate results: The results of neuromodulators and fillers are immediate, so you can see the effects right away.
Non-invasive: Both treatments are non-invasive and require little to no downtime, so you can get back to your wedding planning right away.
Natural-looking results: When done by a skilled injector, neuromodulators and fillers can provide natural-looking results that enhance your features without looking overdone.
Customizable: neuromodulators and fillers can be customized to your individual needs and goals, so you can achieve the exact look you want.
At our clinic, Brittany Blank, RN and owner of of Resting Bitch Face PDX specializes in neuromodulators and fillers. She’ll work with you to create a treatment plan that addresses your unique concerns and helps you achieve your desired look.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels are another popular pre-wedding facial option. This procedure involves applying a special solution to the skin to remove the outermost layer of dead skin cells. Chemical peels can help to reduce the appearance of acne scars, sun damage, and hyperpigmentation, and can also stimulate collagen production for firmer, more youthful-looking skin. We offer a wide variety of chemical peels such as: Epionce Refresh Peel, Epionce Sal-E & Mal-E Peels, The Perfect Derma Pro-Clinical Peel, Cosmelan Peel, Elaine Brennan Get Glowing Micropeel, and many other custom percentages/strengths of glycolic, mandelic, salycilic, TCA, and Jessners Peels. Chemical peels are a popular pre-wedding procedure but there are some things to consider if you are interested in getting a chemical peel before your wedding day:
Timing: It's important to schedule your chemical peel treatment at least a few weeks before your wedding day to allow your skin enough time to recover and see the full benefits of the treatment. The exact timing may depend on the type of chemical peel you receive, so be sure to discuss this with your esthetician.
Benefits: Chemical peels can help improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, acne scars, and other skin imperfections. They can also help improve the overall texture and tone of your skin, leaving it smoother and more radiant.
Sensitivity: Chemical peels can cause some temporary redness, swelling, and sensitivity, depending on the intensity of the peel. It's important to discuss any skin sensitivities or allergies with your esthetician beforehand, so they can adjust the intensity of the treatment accordingly.
Aftercare: After your chemical peel, it's important to follow the recommended aftercare instructions to help your skin heal properly and maintain the results of the treatment. This may include avoiding direct sunlight, using gentle and fragrance-free products, and staying hydrated.
Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning is a popular pre-wedding procedure that involves using a surgical blade to gently exfoliate the skin and remove dead skin cells and fine hair. Here are some things to consider if you are interested in getting a dermaplaning treatment before your wedding day:
Timing: It is recommended to schedule your dermaplaning treatment at least a week before your wedding day to allow your skin to fully recover and see the results of the treatment. It is also important to avoid any other facial treatments, like chemical peels, in the days leading up to your wedding.
Benefits: Dermaplaning can help improve the texture and tone of your skin, leaving it smooth and radiant. It can also help improve the absorption of skincare products, making them more effective. Makeup also applies FLAWLESSLY!
Sensitivity: While dermaplaning is generally safe for all skin types, it is important to discuss any skin sensitivities or allergies with your esthetician beforehand. They can help adjust the intensity of the treatment to ensure your skin stays healthy and happy.
Aftercare: After your dermaplaning treatment, it is important to follow the recommended aftercare instructions to maintain the results and prevent any irritation or sensitivity. This may include avoiding direct sunlight, using gentle and fragrance-free products, and staying hydrated.
Hydrodermabrasion Facial
Hydrodermabrasion is a popular pre-wedding procedure that involves using a special device to exfoliate the skin and infuse it with hydrating serums. Here are some things to consider if you are interested in getting a hydrodermabrasion facial before your wedding day:
Timing: It is recommended to schedule your hydrodermabrasion facial at least a week before your wedding day to allow your skin to fully recover and see the results of the treatment. It is also important to avoid any other facial treatments, like chemical peels, in the days leading up to your wedding.
Benefits: Hydrodermabrasion is a gentle and non-invasive procedure that can help improve the texture, tone, and hydration of your skin. The exfoliation process removes dead skin cells, while the infusion of hydrating serums can help plump and firm the skin.
Sensitivity: While hydrodermabrasion is generally safe for all skin types, it is important to discuss any skin sensitivities or allergies with your esthetician beforehand. They can help choose the appropriate serums and adjust the intensity of the treatment to ensure your skin stays healthy and happy.
Aftercare: After your hydrodermabrasion facial, it is important to follow the recommended aftercare instructions to maintain the results and prevent any irritation or sensitivity. This may include avoiding direct sunlight, using gentle and fragrance-free products, and staying hydrated.
RF Microneedling
RF microneedling is a popular pre-wedding procedure that combines the benefits of traditional microneedling with radiofrequency energy. The procedure involves using a device that contains tiny needles to create small punctures in the skin, which stimulates the skin's natural healing response and promotes the production of collagen and elastin. The addition of radiofrequency energy helps to further stimulate collagen production and tighten the skin, resulting in a firmer, more youthful-looking complexion.
There are many benefits to choosing RF microneedling as a pre-wedding procedure. Here are just a few:
Improved Skin Texture: RF microneedling can help to improve skin texture by reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars.
Reduced Pore Size: The procedure can also help to reduce the size of pores, resulting in a smoother, more even skin tone.
Tighter Skin: RF microneedling can help to tighten loose or sagging skin, resulting in a more youthful-looking complexion.
Minimal Downtime: While there may be some redness and swelling immediately following the procedure, most patients are able to resume their normal activities within a few days.
Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is a popular pre-wedding procedure that can help to enhance your smile and boost your confidence on your special day. There are several options available for teeth whitening, ranging from at-home treatments to in-office procedures. Here are a few things to consider if you are thinking about teeth whitening as a pre-wedding procedure:
Timing: It is important to plan your teeth whitening procedure in advance to ensure that your teeth have enough time to heal and settle into their new shade. In-office treatments can take anywhere from one to three appointments, while at-home treatments can take several weeks. Be sure to discuss your timeline with your dentist or dental hygienist to ensure that you have enough time before your wedding day.
Sensitivity: Some people may experience sensitivity or discomfort during or after teeth whitening procedures. This can be managed with desensitizing toothpaste or by using a lower concentration of the whitening agent. Be sure to discuss any concerns or sensitivities with your dentist or dental hygienist before undergoing the procedure.
Maintenance: Teeth whitening is not a permanent solution and will require maintenance to keep your smile looking its best. This can include regular brushing and flossing, avoiding foods and beverages that can stain your teeth, and touch-up treatments as needed.
Cost: The cost of teeth whitening can vary depending on the type of procedure and the provider.
In conclusion, pre-wedding facials and procedures can be a great way to achieve a radiant and glowing complexion for your big day. With the right pre-wedding facial or procedure, you can feel confident and beautiful as you walk down the aisle. Overall, a good skincare routine that includes consistency, professional help, a healthy diet and hydration, and proper sleep and stress management can help you achieve glowing, radiant skin on your wedding day. Start early, stick to what works, and don't forget to take care of yourself both inside and out.
