Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life. So why not go the extra mile with life-changing treatments to assure you’ll look your absolute best? With the hectic schedule of wedding preparations it’s easy to neglect your skincare regimen, which is where we come in. In today’s trending treatments the ultimate goal is all about achieving flawless and glowing skin. Here at Lifestyle MedSpa we pride ourselves on guiding clients to achieve these goals through laser skin care and super charged facials, such as the HydraFacial MD®.
When it comes to brides looking for healthy clear skin throughout their bridal journey, our recommended protocol comes down to two things: instant results and no down time. Enter your new best friends…Clear + Brilliant and HydraFacial MD®. Not only are these our two most popular skincare treatments, but they are loved by celebrities like: Drew Barrymore, Christie Brinkley, Brittany Snow, Kate Winslet, and many more. HydraFacial MD® is your pre-party treatment, where technology meets lifestyle. With no downtime, a deep cleansing exfoliation, painless peel and extractions, this treatment is part one of our signature protocol. Part two, is our “red carpet facial.” This mini Fraxel treatment shrinks pores, evens tone, and hits all those troublesome dark spots. These treatments together are unstoppable and will leave any bride feeling nothing but confident and beautiful.

We welcome brides to schedule a ’trial style’ a few weeks prior to the big day to get a sneak preview.
The entire team works together to be sure your morning runs smoothly. From group scheduling and follow up communications by the receptionists to that final mist of hairspray, the team is in-tune with the flow of your day. We’ll offer coffee, tea and orange juice as well as space and supplies in case you’d like to bring snacks—and champagne. Many brides have their photographer join them at the salon. After all, it’s part of the day and you’ll certainly want all the fun documented.
Helping a bride and her entourage enjoy the day right from the beginning is incredibly rewarding for the headstrong team—and a great start to a fabulous day for the bride and her entourage.
