The holidays are coming at us fast, and if your goal is to look your best at work parties and family gatherings, now is the time to pay special attention to your skin texture, tone and more. While there isn’t time for surgical procedures, last-minute med spa treatments can fit the bill.
Luckily, there are plenty to choose from, allowing you to achieve your signature holiday glow in the manner that works best for you. So, what are your options? Let’s take a look.
BOTOX®
If you want to look better before the holiday season, there are procedures that can help you.
Botox® is one of the most popular med spa options available. It is used to immobilize the facial muscles to reduce the visibility of wrinkles and prevent new ones from developing.
Baby BOTOX is ideal for addressing dynamic wrinkles just in time to kick off the holiday season. Baby BOTOX uses less product to create a more subtle look while still giving you a wide range of expression.
Injectable Fillers
Injectable fillers, or dermal fillers, are used to fill out areas in the skin where there is sagging, wrinkles or drooping. They can also be used to add volume in specific spots, such as the cheeks or lips.
Fillers are quick to administer, and recovery should be complete before the first big holiday event, making them a good option last-minute med spa treatment for younger-looking skin.
Microneedling
Through the process of microneedling, natural collagen production is stimulated, resulting in a more youthful appearance. It also allows for topical skincare products to penetrate deeper and deliver better results. Microneedling can help treat active acne, acne scars, wrinkles, stretch marks and signs of aging.
Nanofractional Radio Frequency
This type of treatment combines microneedling with radiofrequency to achieve noticeable results in minimal time. In addition to fine lines and wrinkles, nanofractional radio frequency (RF) also addresses skin tone and texture. By stimulating collagen production, it encourages long-lasting, natural results.
Dynamic Variable Depth Radio Frequency (DVDRF)
This is another treatment option that uses both microneedling and radiofrequency. However, with DVDRF, we can control the targeted depth of the treatment. This allows for precise treatment on your skin’s texture and tone which can help you turn back the clock.
Fractional CO2 Technology
This type of technology uses scattered energy, which allows for a highly targeted application. Healing is quick, but fractional CO2 technology is better for mild to moderate wrinkles than deep lines. However, it is a great option for a last-minute med spa treatment heading into the holiday season.
Ultimately, if you don’t feel like you are looking your best, you still have time to schedule your med spa treatment and head into the holiday season feeling confident.
