Say “I Do” to the New, Natural You

It’s wedding season, a time when people come together for blissful celebrations of matrimony. Are you preparing to tie the knot with your significant other? Want to look as radiant on the outside as you feel on the inside? Before exchanging vows, give our team a ring; we can recommend several pre-wedding treatments for both the bride and groom-to-be. Enjoy happily ever after-ready skin when you visit Dr. J. J. Wendel Plastic Surgery in Nashville, TN!

For the Bride

Most brides that we talk to want to look effortlessly beautiful walking down the aisle. With Botox® injections, you can ditch the wrinkles before you get hitched! Botox and Dysport injections help erase the signs of aging, or stop them in their tracks, for smoother, softer, more luminous skin. Whether you have forehead creases, crow’s feet, a furrowed brow or bunny lines, Botox can help transform “something old” into “something new!”

Along with Botox injections, PRP facials are another great way to get youthful, rejuvenated skin. PRP (platelet-rich plasma) contains a high concentration of growth factors; we use microneedling to create tiny pathways in the skin for PRP to enter, stimulating cellular turnover and regrowth. Lori Lankford and Paige Hastings are experts at helping clients restore their skin, improve the appearance of scars and achieve an even complexion through PRP treatments.

Here are some other pre-wedding skin treatments you may be interested in:

Chemical Peels. If you need a quick skin fix before the big day, try a chemical peel! This non-surgical treatment employs specially formulated chemicals to remove layers of dull, dead skin in order to diminish fine lines and wrinkles, repair sun damage, and improve various skin conditions. As we age, our skin cycles slow down. By the time we’re in our 30s and 40s, we hold layers upon layers of dead skin cells on the surface. When you get rid of dead layers, new, healthy, vibrant skin can shine through. With fresh skin cells at the surface, light reflects differently on the skin, making way for that luminous look we all crave!⁣ Both our Illuminize and Vitalize peels are appropriate for all skin types, and patients can expect little to no downtime or discomfort. They are most effective when done in a series several times per year.

Dermaplaning. Like all blushing brides, you want your wedding photos to look flawless. That means prepping your skin for better skincare product absorption and makeup application. To achieve this, dermaplaning is the way to go! By removing the top-most layer of dead skin and vellus hair, dermaplaning exfoliates the skin for a smoother, brighter complexion.

Injectable Fillers. With the help of hyaluronic acid-based fillers like Juvéderm and Restylane, our board certified nurse practitioners can help enhance your appearance by adding volume where it’s needed most. This treatment is wonderful for brides who want to augment thin lips, define and sculpt the lip line, nose or jaw, erase lines around the mouth, improve the appearance of dark circles and under-eye bags, decrease scars, or lift sagging skin without surgery. 

Latisse. You don’t need eyelash extensions to enjoy longer, darker, more voluminous lashes on your wedding day. Latisse® eyelash growth serum helps grow your natural lashes so that you can say “I do” with confidence. Begin using Latisse several months before the ceremony, and use it consistently for best results!

For The Groom

While you’re standing at the altar in front of your guests, we know that you want to look just as good as the soon-to-be Mrs. At Dr. J. J. Wendel Plastic Surgery, Botox and Kybella® treatments can help you give wrinkles and chin fat the boot before you kiss the bride!

Want to save yourself from a wedding day shave? We offer laser hair removal treatment packages so that you can get rid of unwanted hair in hard to reach places, so it’s smooth sailing into wedded bliss! 

On the other hand, platelet-rich plasma can work wonders to grow hair where it has been lost! Through the magic of PRP, our aesthetic providers can inject your body’s best kept secret for hair regrowth so there’s no competition between you and your groomsmen.

For The Unwanted Tattoo

We know that unwanted ink can leave you feeling regretful or embarrassed before special events and job interviews, but you don’t have to feel that way forever. Dr. J. J. Wendel Plastic Surgery is highly sought-after for our 5-star rated laser tattoo removal treatment. Our office has given countless patients relief and restored their skin to its natural state.

For The Honeymoon

Once the planning and parties are over, make a vow to forever protect your skin with physician-grade skin care products! Our team thoroughly tests and vets each product before we bring it into the practice; we want to make sure it’s the best fit for our skin concerns before recommending it to our patients. From cleansers and moisturizers to sunscreens and serums, with brighteners and tighteners and masks galore, we have everything you need to maintain that newlywed glow!
