Often times, we have important events for which we want to “polish” ourselves not only with stylish clothing, shoes and styling of our hair. Weddings, reunions, religious events, parties and other special occasions motivate us to try to look our best. It is possible to do so in a relatively short time before the event, so even if you have left this part for last, it may not be too late. Try Botox or an injectible if your event is coming up in a few days, but if you have a bit of time and would like to change things more dramatically then your options are much more numerous.
The Manhattan lift is an office procedure that is performed under local anesthesia that provides long term results but reduces the risks associated with conventional facelift surgery. It involves a quicker recovery, less bruising and swelling and the results are apparent immediately after the procedure. A loose or saggy jaw line will become a sharply defined lower jaw, laxities and wrinkly looking neck skin will tighten and creases and folds between the nose and mouth (the nasolabial folds) will break and soften. All this may be done one month prior to your event.
Rhinoplasty surgery to correct a hump or a twisted crooked nose as well as eyelid surgery may also be performed one month prior to an event.
Implants to the chin and cheek may be placed as close as two weeks before an event.
Laser procedures vary in their effect. Laser tightening and resurfacing may be done one to two months prior to the event depending on the need for one or several treatments. Laser hair removal should normally be planned six months in advance. So, if you would like smooth bride legs or a gym slick back for the groom for your wedding you may want to plan six months to eight months in advance. Our exclusive all encompassing anti-aging laser treatments that combine laser tightening, rejuvenation and removal of aging spots should be done three to four months before an event.
