The Most Beautiful Bride

Every bride wants to look her best when she walks down that aisle to meet her groom.  When he lifts the veil, she wants him to see the most beautiful woman in the world.  After months of planning the wedding and all the stress that goes along with it, she does not want the effects of that stress to show on her face on her special day.

The solution is to have a plan that will allow enough time to meet her personal appearance goals.  The ideal time to introduce anything new to the skin is 3-6 months before the wedding.  There are many wonderful treatments available today, such as Botox, dermal fillers, microdermabrasion, chemical peels, photofacials, and skin care products that target specific skin care problems.  But all of these treatments have potential side effects, so lead time is necessary to ensure satisfaction.

So, what is the plan?

Botox –has been used on the face since the 1970’s for the treatment of wrinkles.  It is injected into the face, is virtually painless, safe and effective.  It can take years off the appearance of some people and lasts 3-4 months.  Never have the first treatment less than 3 months prior to the wedding in order to ensure the look desired.

Dermal Fillers – there are many types of dermal fillers which can be injected in the face to plump up deep lines, grooves, scars, and wrinkles.    The best approach is to have fillers injected that are short term first to test the look and the response the body will have. Then, a longer acting filler may be injected for more lasting results.  Always allow a minimum of three months lead time.

Microdermabrasion – a deep exfoliation performed by spraying a fine mist of sodium bicarbonate crystals or aluminum hydroxide crystals across the face.  The crystals are then suctioned off the face along with the surface dead skin cells.  This treatment leaves the skins smoother, tighter and brighter and is best done in series for optimal results.  A lead time of 1-2 months is feasible.

Chemical Peels – there are a myriad of peels and resurfacing agents available today.   Wonderful results can be achieved with little or no “down time”.  For optimal results a lead time of 3-6 months is best.  Always seek out a reputable medical spa or physician with experience.  Never mess around with a product sold over the counter for home use!  This can be a formula for disaster!

Photofacial – an intense pulsed light treatment that reduces acne, redness, fine lines and wrinkles and improves rosacea.  For optimal results, this treatment must be done in a series and a 3-6 month lead time is necessary.

Skin Care Products – a good skin care regime with products with the correct ph and active ingredients is the Foundation for a solid plan and should be implemented by everyone for beautiful skin everyday.

With planning and the same attention to detail as all the other wedding plans, any bride can walk down the aisle relaxed and confident that she is indeed, stunningly beautiful.  Improve the Skin you are In!
