Pre-wedding Skin Care Isn’t Just for Brides

June 29, 2012 | Other, Skin Care, Wedding Skin Care

It doesn’t take much time scrolling through Facebook or thumbing through the mail to realize wedding season is upon us in Atlanta. Brides-to-be and their moms are running around town making sure every last detail has been taken care of and finalizing plans. The providers of AYA Medical Spa know how much time and thought goes into wedding planning, and that’s why we released Atlanta Bride’s Guide to Pre-wedding Skin Care last year to help brides prepare their skin in plenty of time before their big day. However, according to an article by the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, moms and dads of brides and grooms are also seeking cosmetic enhancement.

From non-invasive facial rejuvenation to cosmetic surgery, everyone wants to look their best for a wedding. AYA Medical Spa provides an assortment of services to meet everyone’s needs in your wedding party. See our tips for brides (and bridesmaids), grooms, and moms and dads below:

Brides – This is YOUR big day. Brides often want to look their very best on their wedding day without bothersome acne, uneven pigmentation, sun damage, or other cosmetic concerns. Treatments like microdermabrasion, chemical peels, and customized facials are popular among young brides and their bridesmaids, but it’s very important to schedule these appointments with plenty of time before the wedding to avoid peeling skin or redness. Other AYA services gaining popularity during wedding season are CoolSculpting® fat reduction and laser hair removal, but it’s important to remember CoolSculpting results take time to appear and laser hair removal requires multiple sessions. Be sure to allow plenty of time to get the results you are seeking. Some brides also begin using Latisse® prior to their wedding to help their natural eyelashes grow longer, thicker, and darker.

Grooms – Now a guy’s day at the spa might not sound like the bachelor party you’d planned, but many men are making pre-wedding visits to AYA as well. Men often enjoy a customized facial or chemical peel to get their skin looking great.  Some men start planning in advance and even seek pre-wedding laser hair removal for unwanted hair on their backs, chests, and faces—talk about a great gift for their future wives!

Moms and Dads – Although you’ve probably already had your big day, you still want to look your very best, and even though you will be celebrating the true source of your wrinkles (your son or daughter), you don’t want to remember them in the photos. While some parents of brides and grooms seek plastic surgery, others seek facial rejuvenation treatments like Botox® and facial fillers or wrinkle reducing laser treatments. Non-invasive skin tightening with ReFirme or Ultherapy® can also be a solution for lax facial skin.

If you’re getting ready for a summer wedding or planning one for the fall, be sure to consider your skin’s needs.
