etting married is one of the most
exciting and important events in
your life.
You will spend months, if not years, planning
your wedding. But one thing that often gets left
until the last minute is your skin; not just the
bride’s but also the groom, mother-of-the-bride
and mother-of-the-groom.
INVEST INYOUR SKIN
It is not worth investing hundreds or even
thousands of pounds on wedding outfits if your
skin is not glowing, flawless and radiant on the
big day.
You need to think about investing in your skin
so you look and feel your best when you walk
down the aisle.
Skin health is not something you can start
thinking about a couple of weeks before the
wedding. Brides-to-be and mothers should
start thinking about their skin programme at
least six months before the wedding.
BOOK IN FOR A 3D SKIN ANALYSIS
A great place to start is with a 3D Digital
Analysis of your skin and a consultation at a
local skin clinic, where you can discuss what
issues you want to address. This enables skin
health experts to create a plan that will deliver
long-lasting, visible results that continue way
beyond the honeymoon.
INDULGEYOURSELF IN SOME
WELL-DESERVED PAMPERING
Of course the dress is important, but what
people really want to see is you. And if your
skin is tired, or your décolletage is showing
signs of skin damage, it’s going to detract from
your day. Do the dress, and yourself, justice
by setting time aside for some nourishing,
rejuvenating skin treatments like a luxury
prescriptive facial or the amazing ClearLift 4D
Laser Facelift, that will give you a beautiful
glow and reduce your reliance on make-up.
EAT SKIN-BOOSTING FOODS
If you’re embarking on a pre-wedding diet, it’s
worth knowing that significant dietary changes
in the months prior to your wedding can play
havoc with your skin. Whatever you decide
to do, make these four points central to your
plans:
n
Pick proteins
Protein from fish is considered to be the
most beneficial for helping to build and
maintain healthy collagen in skin, as well
as strong, healthy hair and nails
n
Get your vits
Vitamin C is a super-antioxidant, needed
for a strong immune system, healing of
blemishes and radiant skin
n
Moisturise your skin from within
Eat foods rich in Omega 3, 6 and 9, such
as oily fish, nuts and seeds for moisture
and anti-inflammatory agents
n
Don’t go thirsty
Drink at least two litres of still mineral
or filtered water daily to help plump fine
lines and wrinkles, as well as reduce the
appearance of dark circles under the eyes
TAKE ATAILORED APPROACH
In the same way that you expect your dress
to fit perfectly, your skincare regime should be
uniquely tailored to you.
You need a personalised, prescriptive
programme of skin treatments and products
designed entirely around your skin and your
lifestyle priorities.
So, whether you’re looking to repair, rejuvenate
or just refresh your skin, you’ll receive a
bespoke bridal skin service at skin clinics like
Andresa.
GET RID OF UNWANTED HAIR
Consider pain-free laser hair removal so you
don’t have to worry about daily shaving and
tedious plucking before the big day and on your
honeymoon.
This state-of-the-art laser technology
permanently reduces unwanted hair, targeting
the hair follicles with heat.

Andresa was featured in Brides
Magazine’s Cosmetic Beauty Guide in
November 2016 and their beauty editor
said that they were ‘A serious find’
rating their treatments as delivering
‘long-term effects that last way past
the honeymoon’.
They recommended Andresa’s
ClearLift 4D Laser Facelift for lifting
and tightening, and their DermaQuest
Stem Cell Facial for its ability to
deliver “baby-faced radiance”.
They went on to describe Andresa as
having ‘…enough machines to rival
the firepower of a top London clinic’.
