The holiday season will officially be here in just over a month. Between deciding where to spend the holidays, shopping, and the general busyness of the season, you may notice new problems with your skin. Or maybe you just want to give your skin a boost so you can look your best for a special holiday party.
Whatever you have going on, it’s important to remember to take good care of yourself and your skin this season. Additionally, there are many facial treatments you can schedule that will help give you the glow you want.
Don’t Let Healthy Habits Fall by the Wayside
Making time for exercise, getting enough sleep, and making sure to get adequate water intake every day can be challenging under normal circumstances. When you have extra things to do to get ready for the holidays, it can be doubly so. Don’t feel bad if you have one day where things didn’t go as planned. Just make it a point to be mindful of the need to take care of yourself the next day.
Your skin needs regular attention during this busy season as well. Using a high-quality moisturizer and taking extra precautions in the sun are among the most important things you can do for your skin. Even though temperatures are cooler during Georgia winters, it’s important not to relax your sun safety standards. Also, be sure to remove make-up each day and wash your face before applying moisturizer.
Give Your Holiday Skin a Boost
Sometimes your skin just needs a boost, even when you take excellent care of it. A chemical peel gives you the opportunity to literally peel away the old skin to reveal the healthier skin underneath it. This procedure is ideal for treating blotchy skin, sunspots, age spots, freckling, and other minor imperfections. You can even eliminate mild scars or certain types of acne.
Injectables and dermal fillers are additional outpatient procedures for you to consider. The most popular brands of injectables include Dysport, Botox, and Xeomin. They are primarily used to treat dynamic wrinkles. Bolterro Balance, Radiesse, Restylane, and Sculptra are the main families of dermal fillers. These products help to replace collagen for a fuller facial appearance. They also eliminate wrinkles, folds, and fine lines. Laser treatments are effective in treating a range of skin conditions, including freckling, uneven pigmentation, crow’s feet, and several others.
The holidays are for relaxing and bonding with family, not feeling self-conscious about your skin. Taking good care of your skin combined with one of these outpatient services will help you enter the season with confidence. Just click here to learn more about the various options available to you.
