The holidays are approaching, which can be stressful if you're unhappy with your appearance. You want to look and feel your absolute best for work gatherings, family get-togethers, and formal dinners.
If you're unhappy with sagging skin, uneven breasts, or a tummy bulge, plastic surgery is a fantastic option for stunning results. But how do you know when to schedule your procedure so the results coincide with your holiday plans?
Dr. Aisha Baron and our team at Breast, Body, Beauty Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery in Atlanta, Georgia, offer breast augmentation, tummy tucks, liposuction, and rhinoplasty to help you feel your best.
Plastic and reconstructive surgery is an option for people who are unhappy with their appearance. It comes in many forms and allows you to get the body or face you've always dreamed of, but it requires decent recovery and downtime.
With the holidays just a few short months away, figuring out when to schedule your procedure can be daunting. There's no better time than the present, allowing yourself plenty of time to heal and recover before the invitations start coming in.
If you're only looking to freshen up your skin with neurotoxin injectables, microneedling, or radiofrequency skin tightening, you just need a few days to weeks to recover before your first event of the season. These options provide fantastic results with minimal side effects and recovery time.
Surgical procedures like a facelift, breast augmentation, or a mommy makeover take a little longer to recover from, especially if you want to be picture-ready for the holidays. Although you may be ready for parties within a few weeks, it’s important to give yourself enough time to heal adequately.
You'll need to avoid certain activities during the healing process, including lifting, excess sun exposure, and strenuous activities. Keep this in mind when scheduling your procedure.
If you're looking for a quick and easy solution to flabby skin, wrinkles, and fine lines, or a loss of volume in your face, opting for a minimally or noninvasive procedure is your best option. We provide a variety of nonsurgical procedures, which include:
Wrinkles, fine lines, and other signs of aging are common causes of embarrassment, but neurotoxins offer months of tight skin with minimal downtime. You can see significant results within a week of your injection, making it the perfect option for holiday photos.
Facial fillers give you a fuller look when your cheeks sink in or you live with embarrassing wrinkles and lines. Hyaluronic acid fillers only require 24 hours of downtime and provide results for up to nine months.
Let's say you lost weight for the upcoming festivities but still need to improve in some areas. Skin tightening offers tighter skin throughout your body without going under the knife. It utilizes radiofrequency energy to eliminate fat cells and tone up areas of the body.
Other procedures that prep you for the holiday festivities include microneedling and facial rejuvenation. These procedures only take a week or so to recover fully, so you get stunning skin quickly and just in time for a family get-together.
Looking your best around the holidays lives on through photos and videos, and there's no better way to achieve a fabulous look than plastic and reconstructive surgery. The good news is you still have plenty of time to schedule your procedure.
Dr. Baron offers facelifts, brow lifts, rhinoplasty, and chin augmentation for stunning facial results. These procedures usually require at least two weeks of recovery to allow the swelling to go down, although you may need a few more weeks for a full recovery before the parties start.
Body procedures like breast augmentation, tummy tuck, and mommy makeovers also require at least a few weeks before you can lift your nieces and nephews or indulge in too much delicious food. Dr. Baron suggests scheduling these procedures sooner rather than later to be holiday-ready in the upcoming months.
It's a good idea to speak to Dr. Baron about your specific procedure, needs, and plans to get an idea of when to have your surgery. She can give you specific recovery times and expectations for each procedure so you're prepared for the holidays.
