Put your best face forward
With the wedding venue secured , guest list finally agreed and dream wedding dress chosen , now is the time to turn your thoughts to planning how to achieve your best glowing wedding day skin ! We asked Dr . Christine Or , an award-winning Aesthetic Doctor in Tunbridge Wells , to share her top tips for putting your best face forward on the Big Day
1 . Start with the basics . Eating a healthy diet , low in sugar and full of leafy greens , will provide vitamins and antioxidants to reduce inflammation in the skin . Aiming for 8 hours sleep a night and keeping the skin well hydrated , drinking around 2 litres of water a day , will help skin repair . Collagen stimulating drinks such as Skinade are great for rebalancing the skin and optimising skin health .
2 . Establishing a consistent pre-wedding skincare routine is key to help strengthen the skin barrier , brighten the complexion and reduce pigmentation . You should seek advice from an experienced Aesthetic Doctor who will be able to assess your skin and create a tailored medical grade skincare regime for you . This may include introducing a retinol at night and a vitamin C serum in the mornings .
3 . Ensure you use an SPF 30 to 50 sunscreen every day to protect the skin … even on those rainy cloudy days !
4 . If you are considering any aesthetic treatments to bring out your best glowing skin , it is essential to begin planning your skin treatments at least 6 to 12 months before the wedding date , as it can take several months for the full cumulative benefits of skincare and treatments to show . So book your consultation now !
5 . Top treatments for wedding preparation often include a course of chemical peels to treat sun damaged dull skin , pigmentation and acne , a course of collagen boosting Profhilo to hydrate and plump the skin , and wrinkle-reducing injections to reduce frown lines , forehead lines and crows feet . But remember , these treatments will need to be timed just right to ensure your skin is at its peak glow when it ’ s time to say “ I do !”. Create a treatment plan together with your Aesthetic Doctor , putting treatment dates in your diary working backwards from your wedding date .
