Your Holiday Season Treatment Timeline

Address Cosmetic Symptoms & Love Your Party Pictures

As the holidays approach, it’s easy to focus on others and forget about yourself — how you want to feel, and how you want to look. Our holiday season treatment timeline is your guide to self-care during this busy time, offering structure as you prepare for travel, parties and the inevitable flood of photos.

PLAN AHEAD

Your Holiday Timeline:

Botox: 4 Weeks Before

For Wrinkles, Fine Lines & Crow's Feet

Botox is the most popular nonsurgical solution for softening fine lines and wrinkles — particularly around the eyes and forehead — for a smoother, more refined appearance. Results typically begin to appear within a week, with full effects visible after 14 days, making it an ideal solution to implement 4 weeks before your first holiday event.

Botox

Filler: 3-4 Weeks Before

For Volume Loss, Nasolabial Folds & Lip Enhancement

Filler provides facial balance while addressing common concerns like deep nasolabial folds and facial volume loss. Initial results may be visible immediately, but filler may take up to 2 weeks to fully settle. Receiving your treatment 3-4 weeks before the holidays gives you time to get your full results and saves time for a light touch-up.

Fillers

MOXI + Ariessence: 3-4 Weeks Before

For Melasma & Uneven Tone

MOXI lasers gently target the most common skin concerns in just a few sessions. Combined with the post-treatment rejuvenation of Ariessence’s Platelet-Derived Growth Factor, this treatment promotes collagen production, cell turnover and a radiant complexion — with minimal downtime.

MOXI Lasers

Halo Lasers: 3-4 Weeks Before

For Scarring, Texture & Enlarged Pores

Halo laser skin resurfacing tackles both surface-level and deeper skin concerns. Our providers use this science-backed treatment to stimulate long-lasting skin renewal, resulting in reduced scarring, smaller pores and a profound reduction in hyperpigmentation. Halo requires up to 3 weeks for optimal recovery, leaving your skin glowing as the season unfolds.

Skin Resurfacing

Lip Blushing: 2-3 Weeks Before

For Faded Lip Color & Asymmetry

Lip blushing is a semi-permanent cosmetic tattooing treatment that enhances the natural color and shape of your lips, creating a fuller, more defined aesthetic. By boosting pigment and symmetry, it elevates your lips’ appearance without the need for daily makeup. With 2-3 weeks to heal, lip blushing is an ideal pre-holiday treatment for a party-ready look.

Lip Blushing

CoolTone: 2 Weeks Before

For Enhanced Muscle Tone & Definition

CoolTone employs electromagnetic energy to strengthen and tone the abs, thighs or butt. Visible improvements can be noticed after just a couple of weeks of treatments. CoolTone empowers you to feel your best in your holiday outfits by refining muscle definition, ensuring a confident appearance in every pose, photo and outfit.

CoolTone

Eyebrow Waxing/Tinting: 3 Days Before

For Thin Brows & Lack of Definition

Artfully sculpted brows offer a frame for the eyes and can elevate all of your facial features. Eyebrow waxing and tinting are precise methods used to shape and color the brows, creating symmetry and balance. To ensure your tone has had a chance to fade into a more natural look, we recommend scheduling this service 2-3 days prior.

Misc. Medspa Treatments

DiamondGlow: 2 Days Before

For Dull Skin, Dry Skin & Congested Pores

This specialized spa facial exfoliates dead skin, extracts debris and infuses the skin with targeted serums, leaving your complexion brighter and smoother almost instantly. Within the relaxing setting of our medspa, DiamondGlow rejuvenates and hydrates the skin, while also allowing your makeup to settle more evenly and last longer into the night.
