You’re getting married! Congratulations! Let the prepping and planning begin. Planning your wedding can take months, sometimes even a year or more to prepare for the special event. Between booking your venue, finalizing your guest list, and cake-tasting it’s important to also make time to rejuvenate your skin and contour your body, so you look smooth, radiant and toned in your bridal gown. We’ve taken the stress and guesswork out of the equation for you by compiling a list of 4 must-have pre-wedding beauty treatments to get before your big day, as well as when in the time line you should have these treatments scheduled.
1. Coolsculpting
- Wedding countdown: 1 year prior
- The Problem: Bulges of fat pockets, bra fat, love handles, saddle bags
- The Solution: Coolsculpting
- How it works. Coolsculpting uses freezing technology to sculpt and contour your chin and body.
- Pain: There is little discomfort
- Downtime: There is no downtime with the Coolsculpting treatment. Your skin may show a little redness, but you will be able to resume your normal activities.

2. Micro needling with RF AND PRP
- Wedding countdown: 6 months prior
- The Problem: Wrinkles, collagen loss and acne scars
- The Solution: Microneedling with RF and PRP
- How it works. The treatment involves using tiny insulated needles with Radio Frequency to permeate the skin to a controlled depth. This boosts the skin’s ability to generate collagen and heal blemishes, especially from acne. Using Platelet Rich Plasma therapy involves injecting the skin with the patient’s own blood to stimulate the cells, so more collagen is built and smooths out the wrinkles.
- Pain: The procedure is painless. Numbing ointment can be applied to the treatment area for sensitive skin.
- Downtime: There is no downtime. Patients can normally return to their usual activities after the procedures.

3. Fillers and Dysport
- Wedding countdown: 2-3 months prior
- The Problem: Wrinkles, lines and crows feet
- The Solution: Fillers and Dysport
- How it works: For the fillers, Hyaluronic acid is injected into the skin to give it more volume. For Dysport, Botulin toxin Type A is injected into the muscles to temporarily paralyze them, so wrinkles cannot form.
- Pain: There is little discomfort, but numbing cream with a topical anesthetic can be applied to the skin before the injection.
- Downtime: There is no downtime, so patients should be able to resume their normal routine after the injection.

4. HydraFacial
- Wedding countdown: 3 months prior to a week before the wedding
- The Problem: Wrinkles, large pores, sagging, dark spots, depletion of collagen and hyperpigmentation.
- The Solution: Hydrafacial
- How it works. A serum is used to shed the deadened skin atop the dermal surface. A combination of glycolic and salicylic acid is used for the chemical peel effect and the excess oil is suctioned from the skin. To preserve the skin, Antiox serum is added, along with Antioxidants, Peptides and Hyaluronic Acid to hydrate the skin,
- Pain: The procedure is painless.
- Downtime: There is no downtime, but some patients may experience minor irritation post procedure.
