Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! As you start planning every detail of your special day—from the dress to the flowers—don’t forget about one of the most important elements of all: your skin.

Your wedding day is one of the most photographed days of your life, and glowing, healthy skin can make all the difference in how you look and feel. At Bella Medspa, we’re here to help you achieve luminous, makeup-ready skin through a strategic, customized skincare plan.

Here’s everything you need to know to get your skin wedding-ready—no stress, just results.

6–12 Months Before: Build Your Skincare Foundation

Schedule a Professional Skin Consultation

The first step to achieving your bridal glow is understanding your skin. Our expert providers at Bella Medspa will evaluate your skin type, concerns, and goals to create a personalized treatment plan. Starting early allows us to address deeper issues like acne scars, pigmentation, and uneven tone safely and effectively.

Begin a Consistent Facial Routine

A series of monthly facials—like our signature Bella Elite Facial—cleanses, exfoliates, and hydrates the skin. These treatments boost your skin’s overall health while providing that fresh, dewy glow you’ll love in your engagement and wedding photos.

Microneedling

These collagen-stimulating treatments are ideal for improving texture, minimizing fine lines, and reducing the appearance of acne scars or enlarged pores. A series of sessions spaced over several months will reveal smoother, firmer skin just in time for your big day.

Laser Skin Treatments (If Needed)

If you struggle with sun damage, dark spots, or redness, consider laser treatments like IPL Photofacial. These treatments help create a more even, radiant complexion. Because lasers may require some downtime and multiple sessions, this is the ideal time to start.

3–6 Months Before: Refine and Treat Targeted Concerns

Chemical Peels

Chemical peels gently exfoliate the top layers of skin to reveal a brighter, more even complexion. Depending on your skin’s needs, we may recommend a series of light to moderate peels to improve tone, texture, and clarity.

LED Light Therapy Add-Ons

Add LED therapy to your facials for a boost in skin healing, inflammation reduction, and acne control. Red and blue light therapies can target specific concerns and support your other treatments.

Maintain Your Facial Schedule

Consistency is key. Continue monthly facials to build on the progress you’ve made and maintain that wedding-worthy glow.

1–3 Months Before: Hydrate and Perfect

Gentle Exfoliation Treatments

At this stage, we’ll shift to gentler exfoliation methods to maintain radiance without irritating the skin. This ensures your complexion remains smooth and balanced.

Dermaplaning

This simple, painless treatment removes peach fuzz and dead skin, leaving your face ultra-smooth. It’s the perfect pre-makeup prep and enhances product absorption.

Soothing Facials for Radiance

As the big day approaches, we’ll focus on calming, hydrating facials that support the skin barrier and help you look fresh, glowing, and well-rested.

1–4 Weeks Before: Keep It Simple

No New Products or Treatments

Now is not the time to experiment. Stick with your trusted skincare routine and avoid any new products or procedures that could irritate your skin.

Microdermabrasion or Dermaplaning Touch-Up

A final touch-up treatment a week or two before your wedding can give your skin an extra boost—leaving it soft, smooth, and glowing.

Stay Hydrated and Well-Rested

Don’t underestimate the power of water and sleep! Staying hydrated and getting quality rest will help your skin stay clear and luminous.

Day of the Wedding: Your Skin is Ready

By this point, your skin will be in peak condition. On the day of, keep your skincare minimal. Use a gentle cleanser, lightweight moisturizer, and let your makeup artist take it from there.

For a little extra boost, try soothing under-eye masks or a refreshing facial mist to wake up tired skin and keep you feeling fresh all day long.
