7 Pre-Wedding Skin Treatment for the Ultimate Glow – News18

Every bride deserves a radiant glow on her wedding day, and achieving that starts with an impeccable skincare routine. While a good home regimen is important, there’s no substitute for customizable in-clinic treatments to address your specific skin concerns.

Dr Shrilekha Shringarpure Co-founder & Head, The Preserve Clinic, Aesthetic Practitioner, Cosmetologist & Trichologist shares top picks for brides-to-be:

1. HydrafacialThis 7-step “super facial” uses patented technology for cleansing, extraction, and deep hydration with a nourishing super serum. Just one session leaves your skin noticeably healthier, cleaner, and more radiant. The fast results make it perfect for brides with tight schedules. Aim for monthly treatments starting 5 months before the wedding for maximum impact.
2. Skin BoostersThese injectable hyaluronic acid treatments deliver a natural-looking wedding glow with minimal downtime. Hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in our skin, helps retain moisture and plumpness. Injecting a precise amount of hyaluronic acid improves skin tone, texture, hydration, and overall radiance. This “skin-deep moisturizing treatment” is suitable for all ages and skin types. One session usually delivers natural-looking results; however, 1-2 sessions spaced 6-8 weeks apart are recommended for optimal results. You can get this treatment on your face, neck, décolletage, and hands for improved elasticity, hydration, texture, and glow.
3. Chemical PeelsThis is a highly effective option for brides with acne, hyperpigmentation, or uneven skin tone and texture. A chemical solution removes the top layer of skin, revealing a smoother, more even-toned, and radiant complexion. Popular choices include depigmenting peels like Cosmelan Peel, Yellow Peel, and Acnelan Peel. Allow enough time for peeling to complete before your wedding day to avoid any visible peeling on your big day.
4. Q-Switched Laser ToningFor brides with a tight schedule, this is the quickest and most effective treatment for dark spots, pigmentation, acne marks, and fine facial hair. This collagen-boosting laser treatment zaps away imperfections and lightly bleaches fine hair, leaving your skin with an instant glow and zero downtime. Plan for 4-6 sessions to ensure your skin looks its absolute best.
5. Microneedling Radiofrequency (MNRF)Brides-to-be with acne scars, enlarged pores, and a need for a collagen boost can benefit from MNRF. This treatment, using Morpheus 8 technology, creates tiny punctures in the skin with fine needles, triggering the natural healing process and growth factor release, resulting in increased collagen and elastin production. Schedule these sessions 6-12 months before your wedding for optimal results.
6. Forma RF Skin Tightening & LiftingNicknamed the “red carpet facelift,” this non-invasive treatment is ideal for brides seeking tightening and toning of the face and jawline. Radiofrequency energy heats the deeper skin tissues, promoting new collagen production. This translates to significant tightening, contouring, and lifting of the skin. Aim for 3-6 sessions for optimal tightening.
7. Hydra Body Polishing & Body PeelsTreat your whole body to a radiant glow! This combination treatment removes dead skin cells, promotes cell regeneration, and deeply moisturizes. Hydra Dermabrasion with gentle body peels like lactic and glycolic acid removes dead skin while micro-exfoliating the top layer. Schedule sessions at 2-3 week intervals for optimal results.By incorporating these treatments into your pre-wedding skincare plan, you can confidently step down the aisle with a radiant, healthy, and beautiful glow.
