Special Event Preparation

When it comes to a special event, we often think about the perfect outfit, flawless makeup, and immaculate hair. However, one crucial aspect that often gets overlooked is the condition of our skin. Glowing, healthy skin serves as the ideal canvas for any look, and achieving this takes time and dedication. Prepping your skin with the right treatments and skincare routines well in advance of a special event is essential. In fact, it's best to start preparing your skin 6-12 months ahead, depending on your goals. Here’s why and how you should prioritize your skincare regimen before a big occasion.

WHERE DO I START?

1. Consult a Professional

   - The first step in your skin prep should be a consultation to determine what you want to achieve before your event. During your consultation, a thorough treatment plan and homecare routine will be developed specifically to meet your needs and budget.

2. Establish a Tailored Daily Skincare Routine

   - Develop a consistent daily skincare routine that incorporates ingredients to support your concerns. Consistency is key to seeing long-term benefits and using the correct skincare is an essential part of your treatment plan. Think of skincare and in-clinic treatments like diet and exercise- they work in conjunction with each other to get you the best results possible!

3. Commence Targeted In-Clinic Treatments

   - Schedule professional treatments well in advance as these often require certain time frames between sessions and may have downtime. This can include treatments such as muscle relaxers, volume enhancers, bio-remodeling treatments, skin needling or various peels and Healite II LED.

4. Healthy Lifestyle Choices

   - Glowing skin isn’t just about what you apply on your face. A healthy diet, adequate hydration, regular exercise, and sufficient sleep all contribute to skin health. Incorporate these habits into your lifestyle to enhance your results.

TIMELINE FOR SKIN PREP

- 12 Months Before: Begin with a thorough skin assessment and establish your skincare routine. Start any long-term treatments like retinoids or professional therapies that require several sessions. Some treatments require 4-6 weeks between appointments so planning ahead is key!

- 6-9 Months Before: If you are thinking about cosmetic enhancements, this is your time. Treatments that address volume of the face or relaxing muscles should not be performed for the first time less than 6 months prior to your event. This is also the time to adjust your skincare routine based on any changes in your skin condition.

- 3-6 Months Before: Focus on maintaining and enhancing the results achieved. Continue with your routine and treatments and avoid trying new products to prevent adverse reactions.

- 1-3 Months Before: Do not try any cosmetic treatments for the first time during this period! Schedule any final professional treatments that require recovery time. Keep up with your routine and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

- 1 Week Before: Opt for calming, hydrating and plumping treatments such as Healite II with infusion to give the skin a Lucious luminescent glow!

By starting your skin preparation 6-12 months in advance, you give yourself the best chance of achieving radiant, healthy skin that will enhance your overall look for any special event. Investing time and effort into your routine pays off in dividends and not only boosts your confidence but also ensures that you look and feel your absolute best!

So, plan ahead, stay consistent, and enjoy your special occasion!
