CLEARWATER,FL (PRWEB) June 03, 2013
For many brides, looking and feeling their best on their wedding day is just as important as the venue or dress. As a result, cosmetic procedures are often making the wedding to-do list. As cosmetic procedures become increasingly popular among todays brides, many cosmetic facilities are now offering bridal packages to help women look their best on the big day. Skinspirations, a non-surgical cosmetic center in Tampa Bay, explains which procedures are essential for brides-to-be.
According to a recent survey, brides are now taking more time to plan their weddingsmany start over a year before the big day, which leaves them ample time to achieve a perfect wedding day look (1). But for women with less time to plan, Skinspirations suggests considering the following minimally invasive options that require little or no downtime:
1.Botox
a.Benefits: Smooth, wrinkle-free skin and/or higher arched eyebrows (if requested).
b.When to start: Begin six months prior, and repeat as recommended.
2.HydraFacial
a.Benefits: Detoxified and rejuvenated skin, resulting in a smoother appearance.
b.When to start: Can be done up to the day before the wedding.
3.Latisse Eyelash Treatment
a.Benefits: Doubled eyelash fullness.
b.When to start: Four months before wedding.
4.Regular Skincare Treatments
a.Benefits: Clearer, smoother, more even skin.

5.Detox/HCG Diet

Beauty Versus the Beast: Common Mistakes to Avoid
While the above procedures can do much to improve the quality of the skin, Dr. Elliott warns against the following common mistakes that can undo the effectiveness of the procedures:
Avoid the sun and wear SPF every day. Too much UV radiation can lead to wrinkles and uneven skin pigmentation.
Dont pick at your skin. Picking can cause blemishes to worsen.
If you have sensitivities, alert your practitioner before any procedures. Allergic reactions can cause unsightly side effects on the big day.
Dont get too many treatments at oncebombarding your skin with several products wont give you faster results, and could potentially cause an adverse reaction.
Dont have unreal expectations. Fillers and facial treatments can only do so much to change the quality of your skin.
When it comes to pre-nuptial procedures, Dr. Elliott also cautions against waiting until the last minute.
Time is of the essence, said Dr. Elliott. You want to ensure that you make a full recovery in time for the wedding dayfor the best possible results, schedule a consultation before deciding on any procedures.
