05 Dec 5 Skin Treatments to Get Holiday Ready
Oops—did you forget to book your holiday treatments? Don’t worry, Parson Skin Center still has some slots available so you can get holiday ready quickly. We offer many treatments with little to no downtime and with results that happen fast. It’s easy to not only look your best this holiday season, but tick a few items off your 2023 resolution list. Here are our top 5 recommended treatments to get glowing now.
Chemical peels
Light and medium depth peels are an easy way to peel off superficial imperfections while kick-starting collagen production. Today’s peels are customized for you and do not necessarily require a lot of down time. In fact, light peels might flake for about one week or you might not notice any visible “peeling” at all (if this is the case, don’t worry—the peel is still doing its job). Peels are inherently a double whammy since they provide the instant results of removing surface-level issues like hyperpigmentation and light lines but they also keep working thanks to the stimulation of collagen production. There are peels available for men and women of any skin tone and type.
Facials
A facial is the topical application of products hand-selected just for you and your skin goals. In-office facials are the only way to gain access to the best ingredients at the highest concentrations. These are not the facials you can order online or pick up at the store. Plus, we will work together to determine the best facial combination for you. Our skin is always changing (especially in the winter months) so the ideal peel for you is also always changing. Facials require no downtime and provide immediate results. You can even schedule a facial the morning of your holiday party to ensure you’ll be looking and feeling your best.
Botox
No holiday party is complete without this popular injectable. Whether you want baby Botox for a more subtle outcome or “regular” Botox to put an end to those vertical lines on the forehead and crow’s feet, Botox injections should also be customized just for you. You can also use Botox to achieve a lip flip or subtle arch to the eyebrows. Botox takes about one week to work, so you’ll want to schedule that appointment right now. Avoid Botox the day of a big event, since swelling and bruising can occur (plus it is ill-advised to imbibe in the 24 hours after a Botox treatment).
Dermal fillers
Most dermal fillers are made with hyaluronic acid (HA), which gives immediate results. Fillers can restore volume that you’ve lost over the years, give you volume where you’ve always wanted it, and help you look years younger and healthier. We also offer Sculptra, which is an injectable that is commonly grouped into the filler family—but isn’t really a “filler” at all. It’s a collagen induction therapy, so results take time to show. Sculptra won’t give you a new look for the holidays, but can be a great way to start working towards your summer skin goals. It also lasts longer than HA fillers—up to two years—and plumps the skin by producing more collagen right where you want it.
HydraFacial
Hydrafacial is so much more than a facial and combines the three powerful steps of exfoliation, extraction, and infusion of the skin with medical-grade products in one luxurious half-hour session. HydraFacial requires no downtime and will leave your skin baby smooth and glowing with its wet vac technology. HydraFacial is an excellent choice for the morning of an event. Plus, one of the best parts of a HydraFacial is seeing just how dirty the water chamber is after your treatment—this is after your face is cleansed in prepared for treatment. You can also test out new-to-you medical-grade products in the third step to “try before you buy.”
