How to Refresh your Look for the Holidays

When the leaves change color, and the breeze gets colder, we realize another year is about to go by. The holidays are just around the corner. This time of the year is all about resolutions and getting ready to face new and exciting challenges, but it’s also when we realize how tiring the past months have been.

At Gale Facial Plastics, we want you to be the best version of yourself to receive this new year, so we offer several treatment alternatives to freshen up your look just in time for the upcoming holidays.

  • Botox® & Dysport® Injections: These two minimally invasive alternatives are amongst the most popular and effective cosmetic procedures. The injections contain botulinum toxin, an active component that inhibits the neuromodulators that cause muscle contraction. As muscles are relaxed, they have no consequence on the superficial layers of skin, so all the wrinkles and expression lines in the area immediately vanish. This treatment is exceptionally effective for wrinkles on the forehead, between the brows, and around the eyes.
  • Dermal Fillers: Unlike Botox® and Dysport®, dermal fillers have no effect on muscle activity. These injections contain Hyaluronic acid, a substance that adds volume and contour to facial areas that have lost fat and tone. Dermal fillers are mainly used to smoothen signs of aging like wrinkles and fine lines, but they can also be applied to enhance facial features. HA injections can plump up the temples and cheeks, volumize lips, correct nose contours, and improve jawline definition.
  • Laser Skin Resurfacing: Laser skin resurfacing is another type of non-surgical, rejuvenating skincare treatment. It uses laser light to remove superficial layers of damaged skin, triggering the generation of new cells and skin components. Laser treatment improves skin texture and appearance, and it’s popular among patients with skin discoloration, mild scarring, wrinkles, and loose skin.
  • Chemical Peels: A chemical peel is an exfoliating solution that improves the appearance of the skin by improving skin cell turnover. When applied to the skin, it removes dead cells and stimulates the growth of new ones. This facial treatment can help with multiple skin concerns, including alterations in tone and texture, acne spots and scarring, skin hydration, and collagen production.
  • Microneedling: Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic treatment that helps repair your skin. During this procedure, the aesthetician uses thin needles to make tiny holes in the surface of your skin. This minor damage helps stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, two proteins critical to the skin’s healing process that maintain skin firm and smooth.
  • Facials: a facial is a set of non-invasive skincare procedures selected and performed based on your skin needs and condition. Our esthetician first examinates your skin carefully to detect what issues need to be targeted. Then, she performs treatments that aim to exfoliate your skin, remove impurities and dead skin, and, ultimately, recover your glow and radiant appearance.
