It’s the holiday season and time for the spirit of gift-giving! The question is: What type of gifts do your loved ones want? Read on for your holiday gift guide to skincare and MedSpa services they’ll love (and so will you!)!
Your Holiday Gift Guide for MedSpa Treatments and Services
Many love a trip to their favorite MedSpa for Botox and other skin care and cosmetic treatments. You can treat dry skin, chapped lips, acne, fine lines and wrinkles, and more at your local MedSpa.
Many MedSpas also offer fat loss treatments, like CoolSculpting Elite. And with the New Year right around the corner, many are ready to meet their fat loss goals!
Below is a list of gift ideas, from winter skincare to cosmetic treatments to fat loss reduction options, that the special someone in your life might love to receive for the 2020 holiday!
Botox to Improve the Appearance of Fine Lines and Wrinkles
When it comes to popular minimally invasive cosmetic treatments, Botox is #1. A Botox injection treatment is the perfect gift for individuals who want to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Botox is a neuromodulator that is FDA-approved to treat crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines.
Individuals also get Botox injections to treat cobblestone chin, bunny lines across the bridge of the nose, lifting of the eyebrows, and lines around the corners of the mouth. These treatments are considered off-label uses of Botox.
Botox results take 5 to 12 days to see and last for about four months.
Dermal Fillers for Lines, Wrinkles, Volume Loss, and Contouring
Dermal fillers are the second most popular minimally invasive cosmetic treatments available. Dermal fillers, like Juvederm, are the perfect gift for individuals looking to turn back the hands of time. A dermal filler treatment is also an excellent complementary treatment to Botox. Botox is most often used to treat the forehead region of the face. Dermal fillers are most often used in other areas of the face.
A dermal filler treatment can help to fill in lines and wrinkles and add volume to the face. Chin contouring and facial balancing are common dermal filler treatments. Many turn to dermal fillers for lip augmentation, as well. Depending on the filler used, the area being treated, and individual body chemistry, dermal fillers can last anywhere from six months to two years after injection.
Many professionals prefer ones made of hyaluronic acid (HA), like Restylane and Juvederm, when selecting dermal fillers. HA is a substance naturally produced within our bodies that helps to plump and hydrate the skin. A benefit of HA dermal fillers is that they can be dissolved after injection. If someone doesn’t love their results (though with a professional injector, they hopefully will!), HA fillers can be dissolved with an enzyme.
CoolSculpting Fat Loss Treatment
CoolSculpting is a popular fat loss treatment. Many love it because it provides impressive results without needles, downtime, or anesthesia. Millions of individuals have met their fat loss goals with CoolSculpting.
CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared to treat exercise- and diet-resistant fat in nine areas of the body, including the:
- Stomach
- Outer and inner thighs
- Arms (goodbye “bye-bye arm”!)
- Waist
- Area under the jawline
- Area under the chin (bye-bye double chin!)
CoolSculpting is also FDA-cleared to treat fat underneath the buttocks (aka banana rolls), back fat, and bra fat.
Broadband Light (BBL) for Overall Skin Health
Laser treatments, like the BBL (broadband light), help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. They also help repair acne scars, reduce the appearance of age spots, and improve the skin’s overall health.
DiamondGlow Treatment for Skin Rejuvenation
DiamondGlow is an innovative treatment that cleanses, exfoliates, and hydrates the skin for a more youthful looking appearance. For a limited time, you can purchase a DiamondGlow voucher for only $125 (reg $175) at DermaTouch RN. A DiamondGlow voucher makes the perfect holiday gift!
Holiday Gift Guide to Winter Skincare Products for Various Skin Conditions
For dry skin
There are several options to treat dry skin, which is a common winter skincare treatment concern. A moisturizer and cleanser with moisturizing properties are good options. It is also essential to hydrate the skin with products containing hyaluronic acid. SkinMedica has some excellent moisturizing and hydrating products for all skin types. SkinMedica’s HA5 offers impressive hydrating results as one option.
A mild exfoliator can also help improve dry skin. A moisturizing exfoliator will help improve dry skin while also removing it. For dehydrated skin, it is recommended that individuals only exfoliate once or twice a week. Beta-hydroxy acid (BHA) and alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) products also work as great exfoliators to improve dry skin.
For chapped lips
A moisturizing lip balm or oil helps keep lips smooth and hydrated. An HA product for lips, like SkinMedica’s HA5 Smooth and Plump lip system, is also a great choice to hydrate lips.
For sun protection
Quality sunscreen makes the perfect gift. Sunscreen should be worn all-year-round to protect against sun damage and skin cancer. A sunscreen that provides UVA and UVB rays is best. Elta MD and SkinMedica both have sunscreens with UVA/UVB protection.
Acne Treatments
It is not fun to struggle with acne. Providing a gift that helps treat acne will surely make those struggling with it smile!
Clinical acne treatments are effective in eliminating chronic acne and acne scars. Effective acne treatments include Diamond Glow facials, Broadband Light, Halo laser therapy, Moxi laser treatments, chemical peels, and BHA skincare products, to name just a few.
