Left your wedding day skin prep to the last minute? Don’t worry, we’ve got you! While of course we prefer to work with our ‘brides to be’ at least three months out from their big day so we can tailor a treatment plan that’s going to really get them glowing, that doesn’t mean we don’t have a few tricks up our sleeve!
Enter Fraxel. In just one annual treatment, it effectively reduces wrinkles, acne scars, pigmented lesions, and improves overall skin tone and texture. It’s the perfect treatment to achieve glowing wedding day skin.
Fraxel Before & After
How does it work?
Fraxel is a fractionated laser treatment. It works by penetrating the top layers of your skin a fraction at a time via hundreds of thousands of microscopic columns. This stimulates the production of new skin cells and collagen. By leaving most of the surrounding skin intact, your skin’s natural rejuvenation process kicks in, smoothing wrinkles and scars, eliminating pigmentation and creating cleaner, healthier skin.
What results can I expect?
Results typically occur five days after treatment and continue to improve over time. So, the more time you allow before your big day, the better your wedding day skin will be.
Is there any downtime?
You will have a healing phase of seven days, of which the first three to four are the most obvious (this is where you want a few days of social downtime up your sleeve). You are extremely red post treatment, with a sunburnt feeling. Mild swelling starts post treatment and is at its peak the morning after, lasting a day or so. The skin will feel rough for up to a week, but this is actually a really positive thing as it is all the dead and damaged cells shedding off, leaving fresh, vibrant, healthy skin.
How many treatments will I need?
Most clients generally only need one Fraxel per year to experience results, which include dramatically reduced pigmentation, fine lines, wrinkles and scarring. So if you’ve only got time for one treatment before you’re big day, this is the one to choose!
