Skin Boosters Before Christmas: When to Book for Party Season Glow

Every year the same thing happens: early December, my diary fills with people who want to glow for the Christmas party next week. Some treatments work that fast. Many need a few weeks. Here is when to book so your skin is at its best for party season.

Book now (early November): skin booster courses

Hyaluronic acid skin boosters draw moisture into the skin, giving that plump, dewy glow. Results start to show at around 2 to 4 weeks and improve with each session, so starting in early November means your skin is looking its best by mid December.

  • Skin boosters: from £99 a session
  • Course of 3: £279

Book now: Profhilo

Profhilo is given as 2 sessions, 4 weeks apart, so it needs the most notice. Start in the first half of November to finish before the festive rush.

Book now: tired eyes

Under-Eye Peptide Revive is a 5-week course, so starting in November means you finish in time for party season. Read more.

Late November: microneedling

Microneedling boosts collagen and improves texture. Allow at least 2 weeks before a big event for any redness to settle completely.

The week before: facials

A medical-grade facial or glow facial is perfect 3 to 7 days before your event. Instant brightness, no downtime. See our facials.

What not to do

  • Do not try a brand new treatment the day before a big event
  • Do not start a strong retinol or peel in December if you have never used one
  • Do keep using SPF, even in winter
