Why Start Now?
Many of these anti-aging treatments need time to show optimal results, which is why it’s important to start early. Whether you’re looking to smooth out wrinkles, tighten loose skin, or brighten your complexion, taking action today will have you looking fresh and fabulous by the time the holidays arrive.
1. Tox Treatments: Say Goodbye to Wrinkles and Fine Lines
Injectables like Dysport and Xeomin are popular choices for smoothing out wrinkles and fine lines in areas like the forehead, between the brows, and around the eyes. These neuromodulators work by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause expression lines, giving you a smoother, more youthful appearance.
Why Dysport or Xeomin?
- Dysport: Known for its ability to spread more evenly across large areas, Dysport is ideal for treating larger regions like the forehead.
- Xeomin: Often referred to as a more “natural” option, Xeomin is a purified neurotoxin, free from additives, which can make it a better choice for those who are sensitive to other tox treatments.
We also offer Daxxify, a longer-lasting tox that helps smooth wrinkles for longer!
When to Start:
The effects of these treatments typically take about 3-5 days to start showing and can last anywhere from 3 to 4 months. To ensure that your skin looks smooth and youthful during holiday events, it’s best to schedule your appointment at least four weeks before the season begins.
2. Fillers: Restore Volume and Enhance Facial Contours
Dermal fillers like Radiesse, Sculptra, and Cellenis Derma are key to restoring lost volume, plumping up areas like the cheeks, and smoothing out deep lines. As we age, our skin loses collagen and elasticity, which can lead to hollowing and sagging in the face. Fillers provide an instant lift and help redefine your natural facial contours.
Why Use Fillers Before the Holidays?
- Radiesse: This filler not only restores volume but also stimulates your body’s collagen production, resulting in long-lasting, natural-looking improvements.
- Sculptra: Known as a collagen stimulator, Sculptra gradually improves skin elasticity and thickness over time, making it ideal for those looking for subtle, ongoing improvements.
- Cellenis Derma: A newer option, Cellenis Derma is rich in growth factors and platelet-rich plasma, which can enhance tissue regeneration and improve skin texture.
When to Start:
You can see immediate results with fillers, but they can take about two weeks to fully settle and reveal the final outcome. For long-lasting volume and a youthful glow, we recommend getting fillers 6-8 weeks before the holiday season.
3. RF Microneedling: Tighten and Rejuvenate Your Skin
RF (radiofrequency) microneedling is one of the most advanced treatments available for skin tightening, reducing the appearance of fine lines, and improving overall texture. Devices like Pixel8 combine the power of microneedling with RF energy to stimulate collagen production deep within the skin, resulting in smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.
Why RF Microneedling?
Microneedling on its own creates tiny micro-injuries in the skin, triggering your body’s natural healing process. When paired with radiofrequency energy, the treatment penetrates deeper layers of the skin, promoting better collagen and elastin production, which helps tighten loose skin and improve texture.
Pixel8 RF Microneedling: This system is particularly effective for addressing skin laxity on the neck and face, making it perfect for women concerned about sagging skin.
When to Start:
Most clients see noticeable improvements after their first session, but for the best results, a series of 3-4 treatments spaced about 4-6 weeks apart is recommended. Starting your RF microneedling now ensures your skin is smooth and lifted by the holiday season.
4. Erbium Lasers: Resurface and Brighten Your Complexion
Erbium lasers, such as the Spectrum Erbium, are ideal for clients looking to treat age spots, sun damage, and fine lines. This fractional laser technology gently resurfaces the skin by removing the outermost layers of damaged skin, revealing a smoother, more even-toned complexion.
Why Erbium?
Unlike more aggressive laser treatments, erbium lasers have minimal downtime while still delivering powerful results. They target superficial skin layers, which means quicker healing times compared to other laser treatments, making it a perfect pre-holiday skin refresher.
Spectrum Erbium: This laser is excellent for treating surface-level imperfections like fine lines, wrinkles, and pigmentation without the prolonged recovery time of deeper lasers.
When to Start:
For optimal results, you may need 1-2 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart, depending on your skin concerns. Plan to get your first treatment 8-10 weeks before the holiday season to allow your skin to heal and reveal its fresh, radiant appearance.
5. Medical-Grade Skincare: The Foundation of Beautiful Skin
At May Aesthetics Boutique, we offer some of the best medical-grade skincare lines like Skinbetter and Neocutis to support your skin’s health year-round. These products are designed to penetrate deeper layers of the skin, delivering higher concentrations of active ingredients than over-the-counter options. They help maintain the results of your in-office treatments and prevent future signs of aging.
Why Medical-Grade Skincare?
- Skinbetter: Known for its award-winning formulas, Skinbetter products focus on hydration, anti-aging, and skin barrier repair.
- Neocutis: Famous for its growth factor technology, Neocutis products help stimulate collagen production and restore skin’s youthful glow.
When to Start:
Consistent use of medical-grade skincare is essential for maintaining long-term skin health. Start incorporating these products into your routine now to see glowing, hydrated skin by the time the holiday season begins.
Bonus Tip: Weight Loss and Hormone Replacement Therapy for a Complete Makeover
While glowing skin is essential for looking your best during the holidays, overall health and wellness play a huge role in how you feel. At May Aesthetics Boutique, we offer weight loss and hormone replacement therapy (HRT) to help you achieve a holistic transformation.
- Weight Loss Programs: Designed to help you lose stubborn weight, feel more energized, and regain confidence.
- Hormone Replacement Therapy: Balances hormones to help with symptoms like weight gain, low energy, mood swings, and more.
These programs complement your aesthetic treatments, ensuring that you look and feel amazing inside and out.
