Get Glowing for the Holidays: Top Med Spa Services that You’ll Love
- Posted on: Dec 18 2024
The holidays are getting closer and closer, and it seems like the holiday cheer is taking over. Some people are even busting out their Christmas decorations, and why wouldn’t they? After all, this time brings a specific glow in our hearts that we only experience once a year.
That said, your complexion should also get that festive glow. Fortunately, there are plenty of treatments out there that can hold great benefits for your skin without the lengthy recovery. Keep reading to find out more about them!
Why Get a Med Spa Treatment Before the Holidays?
Due to the relatively low humidity, cold weather has the potential to dry the skin, causing it to look quite dull by the time the holidays come around. Summer likely did not make matters easy for you either, as the excess UV exposure damaged your collagen and led to pigmentation spots.
By getting the right procedure before the holidays, you can exfoliate and nourish the skin, all while promoting a new production of collagen. It’s an excellent quick fix for various skin concerns, from fine lines and winkles to uneven skin tone and dryness.
Still, keep in mind that even a fast-recovery treatment might have some initial side effects, so make sure you give your skin enough time to heal. Two weeks before your first event is ideal, but the earlier you get the treatment in December, the more time it will have to work its magic.
Top Procedures that Make the Skin Glow
In terms of glow-boosting treatments, there are multiple options out there that can revitalize tired-looking skin. With a good skincare routine that includes a moisturizer, sunscreen, and perhaps some vitamin C, the treatments below can keep your skin glowing:
1. HydraFacial®
HydraFacial® is one of the treatments that you can never go wrong with. This gentle yet effective procedure cleanses, exfoliates, and then deeply hydrates the skin. It usually involves no downtime, and you can see a change in your skin’s health from the moment you step out of the office.
HydraFacial® treatments come in different forms, depending on what serum is used at the end. It can reduce the signs of aging, control your acne symptoms, reduce pigmentation spots on your skin, and more. It’s an all-in-one treatment that can help smooth and plump the skin.
2. DiamondGlow™
For those who seek a deeper exfoliation benefit, the DiamondGlow™ treatment may be a suitable alternative. Using a diamond-tipped wand to exfoliate and remove the dead skin from the surface, the DiamondGlow™ treatment is more effective against skin texture issues.
The treatment is finalized with a specialized serum that can address numerous imperfections, from collagen loss to excess melanin and visible pores. One session about a week or two before the holidays can reduce visible imperfections and skin dullness.
3. Chemical Peels
A chemical peel can be a great rejuvenating solution when you can’t wait for the skin to naturally shed off from your face. Superficial peels are generally recommended the days before the holiday, but if you have at least two to four weeks before your event, then you can also choose to schedule medium to deep peels.
In essence, chemical peels use an exfoliating solution like glycolic or salicylic acid to trigger a peeling process. Over time, the damaged cells will flake off, revealing the healthy cells underneath. The right strength can help with pigmentation, wrinkles, and acne scars.
4. Laser Rejuvenation
Last but not least, laser rejuvenation treatments like MOXI™ or CO2 laser resurfacing use concentrated light to penetrate the skin. This breaks down pigment and stimulates a new production of collagen. It effectively reduces the signs of aging like wrinkles, fine lines, and age spots.
While the recovery time of laser treatments does not last more than a few days, you should get the treatment at least two to four weeks before your first event. This should give the new collagen and elastin cells enough time to form and mature.
