Botox:
Go 2 weeks ahead of time. It takes that long top see real results, and there can be mild bruising at the injection site, which needs time to heal. Schedule your session for one week before the big day-especially if waxing facial hair. You want to allow time for any redness or tiny bumps to subside. Go in fall or winter. While any redness usually lasts only a day or so, you need to stay out of the sun after a prescription-strength peel. Home peels with a lower concentration of acid can be done 2 days ahead of the event for the most radiant results. Have your first session 3 months ahead of the date. There’s no downtime, but you’ll need several sessions before you start seeing real, lasting results. Dermatologists recommend a minimum of 4-6 treats spaced 2 weeks apart. And if you’re just going to splurge once, go a day or two before the even for maximum glow factor. Go one week before skin needs to look great to allow for recovery time from any postfacial breakouts.
