7 Treatments for a Quick Pre-Holiday Glow-Up
The holiday season is upon us, and with it, you can expect a whirlwind of festive fun. From office parties to family dinners, catching up with friends, and hitting the town for cocktails, your calendar is getting packed.
With all those photo ops and face-to-face moments, it’s only natural to want radiant skin. Feeling like your glow could use a boost? Shantique Med Spa in Torrance, California, has you covered with six treatments that’ll have you holiday-ready in no time.
Chemical peels
Chemical peels are an age-old secret that can greatly improve the nature of your skin. Shahinaz Soliman, MD applies an acid-based solution to your face, neck, and/or hands, which encourages your skin to peel and reveal a more youthful layer.
Skin benefits include:
- Reduce wrinkles and fine lines
- Improve skin texture
- Reduce melasma and hyperpigmentation
- Even your skin tone
Not to mention, this treatment supercharges your skin’s collagen and elastin for the ultimate revamp. Chemical peels are a great option whether you have a moderate degree of skin concerns or are just seeing the effects of aging,
Halo laser™
The Halo™ laser is a noninvasive way to take years off your complexion. This comprehensive system involves a hybrid fractional laser to emit light energy to your skin to improve skin concerns like:
- Dark spots
- Pore size
- Scars
- Melasma
- Redness
- Wrinkles
You might have heard about some laser treatments being uncomfortable, but not this one! Halo treatments generally take under 30 minutes, and though they might feel like a warming sensation, most patients don’t find it painful.
Make sure to schedule your Halo laser appointment at least a week before a big event as redness and peeling are common.
BOTOX®
BOTOX is the number one minimally invasive procedure and for a good reason – it works. BOTOX is just one type of neuro modular product, an injectable that relaxes wrinkles, with over 9.5 million procedures performed in 2023.
By blocking certain nerve receptors, BOTOX relaxes wrinkle-causing muscles while still allowing you to show a wide variety of facial expressions. BOTOX can be used in areas like:
- Forehead
- Glabellar line
- Smoker lines
- Crow’s feet
- Bunny lines
BOTOX takes approximately two weeks to show its full results but keeps wrinkles at bay for three to four months. Here’s your reminder to make your appointment now.
Dermal fillers
Have you noticed areas of your face have lost volume? If yes, you may enjoy the results a dermal filler can provide.
Fillers, most commonly composed of hyaluronic acid, are used to plump up areas of your face that can use an extra lift due to the natural aging process. They can also be used to improve your facial symmetry.
Fillers can be used to:
- Improve drooping cheeks
- Plump your lips
- Improve scars
- Soften creases
- Fill in under eye hollows
Although the results are immediate, it’s best to undergo the procedure at least two weeks before a big event in case bruising and swelling occur.
Microneedling
Safe for all skin tones and types, microneedling involves administering tiny needles to your skin to improve age-related skin concerns like pigmentation, wrinkles, and large pores.
The secret behind microneedling’s effectiveness lies in collagen. By creating tiny micro-injuries, your body ramps up collagen to help aid in wound healing and increase cellular turnover. Over the next four to six weeks, your body will create new, healthy collagen while exposing smoother and tighter skin.
IV Hydration therapy
Did you know more than two billion people are deficient in essential vitamins and minerals? When you don’t have the essential vitamins you need, it can show in your appearance in dry, dull skin. Not to mention, it can plummet your health and lead you to feel tired, irritated, and experience brain fog.
IV hydration therapy replenishes lost vitamins and minerals to your bloodstream with a 100% absorption rate. Just sit back, while Dr. Soliman administers an IV to your arm as you get completely rehydrated and nourished in less than an hour.
Most patients notice a surge of energy after leaving our office and a variety of skin benefits over the next few days including reduced fine lines, pores, and overall glowing.
