12 Months
Before the Wedding: PLANNING & FOUNDATION

The earlier you start, the better the results. This is the time to consult with our aesthetic provider at MEDSPA 33 to build your custom plan. We will evaluate your skin, goals, and timeline—and help you decide what’s realistic and worth doing.

Popular services to consider include:

• Botox/Dysport

• Dermal fillers (lips, cheeks, jawline)

• Laser skin resurfacing

• Facials

• Microneedling

• Facial balancing

• Medical-grade skincare

9–6 Months
Before the Wedding: TREATMENT BEGINS, TREATMENT SERIES & REFINEMENT

This window is all about getting into the groove of treatments.

Think of this phase as laying the foundation:

• Botox (3-4 month results): Try it now so you can tweak your look later, if needed.

• Laser treatments: Target acne scars, sun damage, or uneven tone.

• Microneedling: Boosts collagen and smooths skin texture over time.

• Fillers: Subtle volume restoration or enhancement can be done here, with time for adjustments.

• Bio-stimulators: Stimulate the body’s natural collagen production to rejuvenate skin over time.

For grooms: now’s the time to explore skincare, address ingrown hairs or acne, and even consider subtle fillers for under-eye hollows or jawline definition.

3–1 Months
Before the Wedding: PERFECTING & POLISHING

This is when you refine, retouch, and maximize the glow.

Consider:

• Hydrafacials or DiamondGlow for luminous skin

• Botox - schedule your final neurotoxin treatment about 4-5 weeks out to allow peak effect and settling

• Small amounts of filler for lips or cheek tweaks

This is also the time to stop experimenting—stick to what you know works.

1 Week
Before the Wedding: THE FINAL GLOW — KEEP IT LIGHT

You’re in the home stretch. Stick to calming, non-invasive treatments.

Think:

• LED light therapy

• Hydration facial

• Dermaplaning

• Oxygen facial (instant glow/radiance)

• Under-eye masks or lymphatic drainage massage

Avoid anything that could cause swelling, bruising, or a breakout. No new skincare products or harsh treatments. No impulse enhancements. The goal is to feel refreshed—not panicked.

Pro Tip: Aesthetic Timeline Isn’t Just for Brides

More grooms are stepping up their skincare and aesthetic routines than ever before.

Common requests include:

• Botox for a relaxed, confident expression

• Filler for jawlines and under-eyes

• Skincare for shaving irritation or acne scars

The key? Keep it subtle, and give yourself time to adjust.

The Key Takeaways

• Start your aesthetic timeline 9-12 months out for best results.

• Introduce treatments gradually to avoid surprises or stress.

• Brides and grooms alike can benefit from Botox, filler, and skincare.

• Finalize all major treatments at least one month before the wedding.

• Focus on confidence, comfort, and glowing naturally—not transforming.

The FAQs

1. When should I start getting Botox or fillers before my wedding?

Start Botox 6–9 months in advance to see how your face responds. For fillers, aim for 3–6 months out so there’s time for adjustments and natural settling.

2. Are aesthetic treatments safe before a wedding?

Yes, if done with proper planning. Stick with our licensed professionals and follow a timeline that avoids last-minute treatments that could cause swelling or irritation.

3. Can men benefit from this timeline too?

Absolutely. Grooms are increasingly investing in skincare, injectables, and treatments like laser or microneedling to look fresh and confident in photos.

4. What’s the biggest mistake people make before their wedding?

Doing treatments too close to the big day—or trying something new last-minute. The safest route is to plan ahead and trust what’s already working for you.

5. What treatments give the biggest “wow” results?

Botox and filler (if needed) offer high-impact results. Combine them with consistent facials and quality skincare for the full glow-up effect.
