As wedding season approaches, filled with the anticipation of a joyous celebration, it’s time to prepare and enhance your appearance for the special day. At Rejuvenation Clinics of Australia, we are dedicated to helping you care for and support the unique you. In this guide, we’ll explore a timeline of the most sought-after cosmetic treatments before weddings and when to begin them to ensure you radiate confidence on your big day.
12 Months
Non-Invasive Fat Reduction
Non-invasive fat reduction treatments like CoolSculpting or Ultrasound Fat Reduction can help you get rid of stubborn pockets of fat that don’t respond to diet and exercise. Treating your arms, thighs, abdomen or flanks can be helpful for getting that perfect fit in a tightly-tailored dress.
These treatments can also help reduce a double chin to bring out your natural jawline in a collared shirt.
Most people require 2-4 treatments, and you need to wait 6 weeks in between treatments. After your final treatment, it can take up to 4 months to see your total result, so it’s best to give yourself some time.
6 Months
Non-Invasive Skin Tightening
Enhance your wedding day glow with our cutting-edge HIFU treatments, performed using Ultraformer, Ultherapy, or Thermage technology. These innovative procedures harness the power of energy waves to penetrate deep within your skin, kickstarting the rejuvenation of collagen fibers. As these fibers rebuild and regenerate, they restore a youthful elasticity and firmness to aging or sagging skin, earning HIFU its reputation as the ‘non-surgical facelift.’
For mature brides, grooms, or even the mother of the bride seeking optimal results, our experts may recommend multiple sessions. In such cases, it’s advisable to commence your treatment journey approximately one year in advance, as it typically takes 3-6 months to witness the full transformation in your skin’s appearance.
3 Months
bio remodelling injections
Bio-stimulator injections offer several advantages for your wedding day. They provide a natural and gradual enhancement, helping you look refreshed, plump, and radiate with a youthful glow while avoiding sudden changes. These long-lasting results can extend throughout your wedding events and honeymoon, requiring minimal downtime. The injections enhance your natural appearance by stimulating collagen production, giving you the coveted radiance and plumpness. For optimal results Dr Garry Cussell recommends two initial treatments, 4 weeks apart through-which you will see full results 4-8 weeks after 2nd treatment.
Skin Care Routine
Skincare is an essential complement to your professional treatments. It keeps your skin healthy and helps you prolong your results. It can also help protect your skin from congestion and keep the surface looking plump and dewy so that it doesn’t crease as much when the skin folds with various facial expressions.
If you don’t already have a skincare routine, this is a good time to start. Your skin cell cycle renews every four weeks, and it can take a full cycle to see your routine making a difference. Each subsequent cycle builds on the results of the previous one.
If you’re using actives like Vitamin A, you may also need to introduce it slowly and let your skin get used to it before going into daily use.
1 Month
Anti-wrinkle injections
Achieving wrinkle reduction for your wedding day requires careful planning and timing. For optimal results, we advise scheduling your anti wrinkle injections two weeks in advance. To maintain a natural appearance, our clinical experts recommend starting with a conservative amount. Following your initial treatment, we encourage you to return for a complimentary follow-up consultation after two weeks to assess the results and make any necessary adjustments. This approach allows you to ensure your desired look is achieved while also giving the effects ample time to settle, ensuring you look radiant and refreshed rather than overly treated in your wedding photographs.
Dermal Fillers
Whether you’re considering fillers for fuller lips, youthful volume or jawline contouring, we recommend coming in for treatment about a month in advance. This will leave more than enough time for any swelling to go down, and if you tend to bruise easily, it will allow time for the bruising to go away.
It also gives you time for a little tweak if you need it after the first treatment settles..
Most importantly, getting your filler done early will give it time to settle in and become part of your skin. This is when it starts to look the most natural.
1 Week
Facials
Treatments such as Facial Peels and HydraFacials are great way to get your skin glowing before a big event.
Reactions are very rare, but when you have a lot going on right before your wedding day, and you’re potentially feeling a bit stressed, you want to give yourself a few days grace period just to be safe, but not so much time that your post-facial glow wears off. 4-7 days is usually the sweet spot.
PhotoTherapy
Between planning, fittings and catching up with relatives, things can get a little hectic close to the big date. Phototherapy, also known as Omnilux or LED Light Therapy, is one of our most relaxing facial treatments. Shut off the outside world and enjoy a half hour of me-time while you rest under a skin-rejuvenating light.
PhotoTherapy uses different wavelengths that stimulate cellular activity to calm inflammation, fight bacteria or stimulate collagen, so you come out feeling calm and refreshed with a healthy, glowing complexion.
Wedding Packages
To celebrate the upcoming wedding season, we’ve launched some exciting new wedding packages. Choose the treatments that you want to pamper yourself with, and be rewarded with bonus vouchers that you can share with members of your family or with your wedding party!
We also recommend coming in for a consultation to discuss your treatment options and work out a plan with your Clinician to have you looking and feeling your best.
