Top Cosmetic Procedures for the Wedding Day

As you prepare to walk down the aisle on your Big Day, a few cosmetic enhancements can help you go from looking “good” to looking “great”. 

When the wedding day event planning is over, cosmetic surgery can enhance your looks, help you squeeze into your wedding day ensemble and ensure you look picture-perfect for the upcoming events.  

From cellulite treatments to Botox injections, consider any of these popular procedures in preparation for your wedding day: 

Cellulite Treatments to Tighten and Tone the Skin

If you’re at a healthy weight but have a few stubborn patches of cellulite, a cellulite treatment can help sculpt, reshape and tone your figure.  Today’s popular cellulite reduction treatments include Body by Thermage and VelaShape, treatments that help tighten up the skin’s tissue and reduce the appearance of cellulite. Cellulite on the thighs or extra skin around the stomach can all be corrected with some of today’s innovative treatments – and your wedding outfit fit like a glove.

When to get cellulite treatments: A series of cellulite treatments can help tighten and tone up the skin weeks before your special events, and most people achieve lasting results after 6 – 8 treatments.

Liposuction for Permanent Fat and Cellulite Removal

If you’re more interested in getting rid of stubborn fatty deposits for the long-term, liposuction and liposculpture procedures present some options for you. Today’s innovative procedures are safe and can provide lasting results, but you will need some time to recover.

When to pursue liposuction:  If you want to head into your wedding months free of scars and discomfort, you’ll need to undergo surgery at least 3 – 6 months in advance.  This will vary depending on the type of surgery you pursue and the location of the incisions.

Facial Rejuvenation Treatments to Even Out Skin Tone

If your skin is looking dull or tired, the camera is sure to catch those premature signs of aging. Facial rejuvenation treatments including Photofacials, microdermabrasion and laser skin resurfacing can help brighten up a dull complexion and even out your skin tone. These treatments can also help eliminate acne scars and age spots, giving you an instant mini makeover without surgery.

When to undergo facial rejuvenation:  Facial rejuvenation treatments typically provide instant results, but the skin will need to adjust for at least 4 – 6 weeks to provide for a significant difference.

Botox and Injectables to Get Rid of Wrinkles

Frown lines, crow’s feet and sagging skin around the cheeks can give away your age. Avoid the wedding day blues by freshening up your appearance using dermal fillers such as Botox and Restylane.  Botox can be used to reduce frown lines and smooth out the forehead, while injectable fillers such as Restylane can get rid of crow’s feet and eliminate laugh lines. 

When to get Botox: Dermal fillers can be performed up to a month before the Big Day, and do provide instant results. Still, a series of treatments spaced out months before the wedding can help the skin adjust to the changes so the end result looks more natural.

Hair Transplants to Manage Hair Loss

If you’ve been suffering from hair loss or want your hair to be thicker and fuller, you may be a good candidate for hair transplants. Hair transplants trigger the natural hair growth process and can be used for both hair on the scalp and facial hair. 

When to plan for hair transplants: Hair transplant treatments can be booked between 6 – 12 months in advance of the wedding, and do require at least two months of treatment to see any results.
