Botox for your Wedding?

By Anne Fennell


As wedding season approaches, many couples are putting the final touches on their plans for this momentous occasion. Naturally, every person wants to look their best for the big day. Some men and women spend hundreds of dollars in the run-up to their wedding on beauty products and skincare treatments.

The lead up to a wedding can be stressful, so a back massage or facial is a good relaxation method. It can be very hectic doing all the planning, but if you get your nails done or have a spa day, it will help you unwind. In the wedding scene, another option is growing in popularity. To look their best, more and more brides and grooms to-be are turning to Botox. Making a good impression at the wedding is important; you want to feel great in your skin, especially as the photographs will be with you forever.

How long before your wedding should you wait before having Botox?

The Botox injections should be done one month before the big day, at least. It is always important to do a test-run; you may feel a little nervous if you have never had Botox before, but it is safe and quick. However, it can take about 7-14 days to see the full effects after the initial treatment which is why we advise you to have it done at least a month before.

Additionally, when planning pre-wedding events like bachelor parties, take into account that it's important to avoid alcohol, facial massages and extreme temperature changes like saunas and steam rooms for 1-2 days after the treatment.

You might experience slight tenderness and mild pain during the Botox injection, however they are relatively painless. There may be some minor swelling immediately after the injection; however this normally settles after about 30 minutes. It is relatively uncommon to experience slight bruising the day after, but this is another reason why advance treatment is recommended.

Generally, Botox works well for the frown, forehead and eye wrinkles. Your facial expressions may show how you are overwhelmed with emotions during the big day. Before your wedding, Botox can help you get rid of any unwanted horizontal lines across your forehead, frown lines between your eyebrows, or crows feet in the outer corner of the eyes.

Also popular as preparation for a wedding or other significant occasion is an excessive sweating treatment called hyperhidrosis. A likely problem on an important occasion, such as your wedding, is excessive sweating; some people are prone to it, in response to hot temperatures, stress or emotion.

If you are engaged to marry and you are considering Botox, make sure you get it done at least one month before to ensure your muscles have time to respond, and the treatment to take full effect.
