Holiday party? Check. Dinner reservations? Check. Family photos, festive cocktails, and at least one event you forgot you said yes to three months ago? Check, check, and check.
There’s a lot happening this time of year, and your skin deserves to have a little fun too. Whether you want that fresh-from-a-facial glow, a perfectly smooth canvas for your holiday makeup, or a little more serious skin renewal, there’s no single recipe for a holiday glow up. The best treatment depends on what you want to see when the camera comes out.
So, what are we going for?
I Want Hydrated, Glowy Skin
Your pick: HydraFacial
If your holiday skin goals can be summed up as fresh, hydrated, and glowy, it’s hard to go wrong with a HydraFacial.
HydraFacial cleanses, exfoliates, extracts, and hydrates while infusing the skin with nourishing serums. It’s a great choice when dull, dry winter skin starts creeping in or you simply want your complexion looking refreshed before an event.
The best part? There’s no real downtime, so you can get back to your holiday plans with skin that looks clean, plump, and refreshed. And if you want to step it up - add glow pen or nano needling to your appointment!
I Want to Peel Away the Dullness
Your pick: Chemical Peel
If dull skin has officially overstayed its welcome, it might be time to peel it away.
Chemical peels help exfoliate damaged outer layers of skin to reveal a smoother, brighter-looking complexion underneath. Depending on the peel and your individual skin, they can also help improve concerns like pigmentation, texture, and signs of aging.
Because different peels come with different levels of exfoliation and downtime, we'll help you choose the right option based on your skin and how quickly that holiday party is approaching.
I Want My Makeup to Go on Like Butter
Your pick: Dermaplaning
You know that feeling when your foundation sits just right?
Dermaplaning can help get you there.
This exfoliating treatment gently removes dead skin cells and fine facial hair from the surface of your skin, leaving behind an incredibly smooth canvas. The result is softer, brighter-looking skin and makeup that applies beautifully, making dermaplaning an easy addition to your pre-party prep.
I Want to Leave My Sun Spots Off the Guest List
Your pick: BBL
Brown spots and redness weren't exactly on your holiday wishlist.
BBL uses light energy to target visible signs of sun damage, including brown spots, uneven pigmentation, and redness. In the days following treatment, pigmented areas may temporarily darken before naturally fading, helping reveal a clearer, more even-looking complexion.
Consider this one a gift you'll want to unwrap a little early. Give your skin some time between your treatment and your holiday plans so the renewal process has time to work its magic.
I Want to Give My Collagen a Boost
Your pick: Microneedling
If you're thinking beyond one night of glowing skin and want to work on its overall appearance, microneedling may be more your speed.
Microneedling creates controlled microchannels in the skin to stimulate its natural healing response and support collagen production. Over time, it can help improve texture, fine lines, acne scars, and the overall quality of your skin.
This one requires a little more planning than your last-minute HydraFacial, so don't book it the afternoon of the office Christmas party!
But if your goal is skin renewal rather than just an instant glow, it's worth making room on your holiday calendar.
I Want to Smooth Things Over
Your pick: Moxi
If smoother texture and a brighter, more even-looking complexion are at the top of your wishlist, Moxi might be your pick.
This gentle fractional laser creates tiny treatment zones beneath the surface, encouraging your skin's natural renewal process and helping improve uneven tone, rough texture, pigmentation, and early signs of sun damage.
Your skin will develop a rough, sandpaper-like texture in the days following treatment as treated cells make their way to the surface and naturally slough away.
So don't save this one for Christmas Eve. Give yourself a little time before your holiday plans, and let smoother, refreshed-looking skin be the gift.
So What’s Your Holiday Glow?
Maybe you're a HydraFacial-and-go kind of person. Maybe you're ready to get serious about texture and pigmentation. Or maybe you want a combination that gives you a little bit of both.
That's where we come in.
Tell us what you want your skin to look and feel like this holiday season, and we'll help you choose the treatment that gets you there. Because between the parties, pictures, dinners, and everything else on your calendar, there's always room for a little extra glow.
