The Best Aesthetic Treatments for the Thanksgiving Season

Fall is here, our favorite season for strolling through the autumn leaves, sipping hot chocolate, and getting excited about the holidays. The colder weather months are a perfect time for certain kinds of aesthetic treatments, such as hair restoration. Thanksgiving is the biggest day on the calendar this season, and as with many holidays, the pressure is on to look your best. Below, we’ve compiled the best treatments to get before you dive into the holiday, as well as which ones to get after (just in case you overindulge!).    

Before Thanksgiving 

Going into the long weekend, put your focus on the skin and face so you can show up looking bright, refreshed, and beautiful. As well as keeping up your regular skin care routine (boosted with a DIY spa mask or two), here are the aesthetic treatments that will have you looking amazing in time for Thanksgiving dinner:  

For a bright, even-toned complexion, photofacials are a gentle but effective way to safely treat signs of aging, sun damage, and other skin irregularities in one comprehensive treatment. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology penetrates deep into the skin’s layers to resolve fine lines, wrinkles, sun spots, broken capillaries, rosacea, discoloration, and skin laxity, stimulating the natural production of collagen and elastin, the two elements that are responsible for keeping skin looking firm, youthful, and refreshed. The technology is safe for all skin types, and can also treat the neck and chest area safely and effectively. 

If you really want to make an entrance, a non-surgical anti-aging treatment is the way to go. Wrinkle treatments use Multi-Polar Radio Frequency and Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields to produce uniform heat under the skin’s surface. This process helps to naturally increase collagen by triggering skin’s natural production of the fibers, resulting in smoother, firmer skin that looks noticeably more youthful. Best of all, they’re safe for all skin types, including darker skin.

Microdermabrasion and chemical peels are popular ways to rejuvenate one’s appearance, but the long period of redness and peeling afterward is no good when you’re pressed for time. To get glowing without the downtime, Venus Glow™ facial renewal treatments extract and remove dirt, excess oil, and impurities from below the skin’s surface, resulting in a more radiant, refreshed complexion. It’s a fast, safe, and effective way to leave skin feeling noticeably healthier, cleaner, and more hydrated. And boosted by our new, innovative line of Glow Serums, your Venus Glow™ treatment can be tailored to treat any number of other skin concerns, such as acne, rosacea, or premature aging.

After Thanksgiving  

Overindulgence goes hand in hand with the holidays—when the table is full of so much delicious food, it’s impossible to say no to second helpings. After Thanksgiving, you can get back in shape in a snap by resuming your usual fitness routine and opting for one of these body treatments:  

Body slimming treatments work to shrink fat cells below the skin’s surface while boosting skin elasticity to restore a smoother, firmer silhouette. They also minimize the appearance of cellulite and sagging skin by reducing fatty tissue in stubborn areas, such as the flanks and abdomen, and by tightening skin. The result is a toned appearance in as little as one 15-30 minute session, with no downtime.   

For more targeted fat reduction, Venus Bliss™ uses patented diode laser technology to break down and destroy fat cells in a process known as lipolysis. The treatments are an effortless, non-surgical solution for melting unwanted body fat in a short timeframe. The diode laser and radio frequency technologies combats hard-to-beat fat, reduce cellulite, and create a leaner appearance painlessly and without the recovery time a more invasive procedure would require. Comfortable and quick, the treatments can be done in 15-30 minute sessions, and you can go back to normal activities immediately afterward because there’s no downtime. 

The Best Gift to Give for Thanksgiving 

In addition to treating yourself, your loved ones might appreciate the gift of self care this holiday season. A gift card to a med spa can be especially welcome if you have a friend who’s been thinking about getting an aesthetic treatment but doesn’t want to splurge on themselves. If you know someone in your life who’s been admiring your amazing results, now you know the perfect thing to get them. 

With options for all skin types, concerns, and budgets, it’s a perfect time to get your favorite aesthetic treatment, or to try one you’ve never had before. Use our search below to find the clinic nearest to you, and have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
