Skin Care for your Wedding Day

Wedding season is coming up and whether we’re working with the bride or groom, a member of the bridal party, or a guest, we’re on hand for advice and treatments to prep the skin.

Planning your Skin Care leading up to the Wedding or other Special Event

A pre-wedding skin care regimen can be customized to your skin care goals, ranging from boosting hydration and glow to a targeted facial program to help reduce the appearance of acne or pigmentation. Many brides are seeking a skin care plan to ensure a healthy radiant appearance on the big day. Depending on your goals, you can choose one of these wedding skin care plans.

Hydration + Glow —

the month before and week of the event
If you are pleased with your skin health and are looking for a lighter care plan for glow, radiance, and relaxation, we recommend booking a minimum of two facials. The first facial should be a month or more before the wedding to do a consultation and confirm your skin care needs and goals.

Improve the appearance of acne —

start 3-6 months before the event
We have several specialized facial treatments to help reduce the appearance and recurrence of acne, minimize the appearance of scarring, and smoothing the skin surface. It will also help reduce inflammation and prevent further breakouts. Treatments include clinical extractions followed by an anti-inflammatory mask to calm the skin. For best results we recommend monthly facial treatments for 3 to 6 months leading up to the wedding date.

Reduce pigmentation —

start 3-6 months before the event

Some women are affected by melasma, irregular patches of tan or brown pigmentation that appear on the face and body often as a result of hormonal changes, pregnancy or medications. The appearance of the pigmentation can be lightened and reduced through a series of treatments that may include enzyme facial peels, microneedling, and/or specific skin care products. Your esthetician will be able to guide you to the best facial treatments and skin care products for you skin type and needs.
