When you prepare for a vacation, you don’t just pack your bags and leave. You also take the necessary steps to ensure you look your best because, after all, this is a time for you to enjoy yourself. And the best way to do that is to pack your confidence as well, usually in the form of a beauty treatment.
There are numerous cosmetic procedures out there that can help you look and feel your best. You just need to determine which ones suit your aesthetic needs. In this blog, you will learn about the best beauty procedures to help you prepare for your next getaway!
Top Procedures to Get Ready for a Vacation
Plenty of procedures and treatments can help you prepare for your next vacation, regardless of the body area that concerns you. Below are the most popular options:
-
CoolSculpting® Elite
Stubborn body fat can make anyone self-conscious, especially when your vacation takes you to the beach or a pool. Excess belly fat and love handles make you hide underneath a swimsuit you don’t like, and your activities may be limited when you don’t feel confident. Procedures like liposuction can be effective but often involve a fair amount of recovery, which you might not have time for.
An excellent alternative to get ready for your vacation would be to opt for CoolSculpting® Elite. Using a process called cryolipolysis, this procedure freezes the fat cells underneath the skin without affecting the nearby skin and muscles. Within the next few weeks, your body will flush out the damaged fat cells, offering you a better-contoured physique. This treatment coupled with a good, healthy diet and exercise can boost your confidence and get you ready for your trip!
-
Injectables
Injectables are a great option if you want a quick fix before your vacation. It is ideal to get the injectable at least two weeks before your vacation to help reduce the intensity of wrinkles and offer you a more youthful aesthetic. You just need to find the best injectable for your needs.
For instance, BOTOX® Cosmetic injections use botulinum toxin type A to temporarily stop excess muscle contraction under the skin. This can help reduce the intensity of dynamic wrinkles like crow’s feet or forehead lines. For an extra volume boost, hyaluronic acid fillers like JUVÉDERM® can help restore plumpness. Not only can they be used to reduce wrinkles, but they could also add extra volume to the lips and cheeks.
-
Chemical Peels
A chemical peel can be beneficial if you have excess pigmentation, acne scars, wrinkles, or any other type of skin imperfection on your face. This procedure uses an acid to trigger a skin resurfacing process, making the top layer peel off and allowing the healthy cells underneath to come to the surface.
Bear in mind that this procedure, while bringing stunning results, comes with a certain recovery period during which your skin will peel. It can take a few days or up to two weeks, depending on the type of peel. We recommend that you book the peel appointment in advance and not on the day before your vacation.
How to Make the Most of Your Results
Preparing for or going on a vacation can make it seem like time has slowed down, but your skin might not agree. Indeed, the beauty procedure that you recently received could have reversed some of the aging signs, but natural aging is inevitable. This is why you need to give them a helping hand to make the most of the procedures.
First things first, make sure that you follow a thorough skincare routine. If anti-aging is your purpose, using skincare that incorporates hyaluronic acid can slow the aging process. Make sure also to use sunblock during your vacation, as UV rays can break down collagen and speed up aging. A good tip would be to use medical-grade skincare, as they have a higher concentration of active agents.
Indulge in what makes you happy during a vacation, but not too much, especially if you underwent a body-sculpting treatment. To maintain the results as long as possible, schedule regular maintenance treatments. This way, you can be ready for any event, no matter when it may be.
