We are excited to announce the addition of two advanced treatments now available at Plaza Aesthetics & Wellness: the SkinPen® Precision Elite microneedling device and the ProGen PRP Eclipse system. These innovative procedures are designed to rejuvenate your skin, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, and enhance overall skin texture.

While we have offered microneedling for years, the SkinPen® Precision Elite is the new, world-class, gold standard and first FDA-cleared class II microneedling device, offering a safe and effective solution for facial acne scars and neck wrinkles. This non-invasive procedure stimulates collagen production, leading to smoother, more youthful-looking skin. Treatments typically take about 30 minutes, and have minimal downtime afterwards so you can return to your daily activities quickly.

Complementing the SkinPen® treatment, the ProGen PRP Eclipse system utilizes your body’s own platelet-rich plasma to enhance skin rejuvenation and accelerate healing. Applying during microneedling sessions helps improve results by harnessing the natural growth factors in your blood to promote tissue repair and regeneration, leading to healthier, more vibrant skin. But the best part is that the ProGen PRP Eclipse system increases platelet concentration up to 170% and provides more than 2.8 trillion exosomes per milliter of PRP which can then be injected directly into various areas to deliver an even deeper, more targeted treatment!

Experience the benefits of these cutting-edge treatments at Plaza Aesthetics & Wellness, where we are dedicated to researching the most effective, up-to-date treatments and helping you achieve your aesthetic goals.

Before

After

For Good Results: Plan to complete a series of SkinPen microneedling alone to improve skin texture and reduce scars, fine lines, and wrinkles.

For Better Results: Microneedling with PRP will enhance the treatments by utilizing platelet-rich plasma to promote faster healing and stimulate collagen production, leading to smoother, more radiant skin.

For the Best Results: Combine microneedling with PRP and injecting PRP into targeted areas to deeply enhance skin repair and rejuvenation. The PRP injections deliver growth factors directly to problem areas, such as deeper wrinkles or volume loss and provide a more comprehensive and long-lasting improvement. This approach maximizes the skin’s natural regenerative abilities, offering noticeable, transformative results.

The aesthetic industry has shifted in recent years to be all about natural, long lasting results that are backed by scientific research and help rejuvenate your skin at the cellular level. (And we couldn’t be happier!) In addition to these new services, keep an eye out for more exciting growth factor/exosome based treatments that we will be announcing soon! Including the implementation of a product with the highest concentration of growth factor available!

Wedding Skincare Prep

Your wedding day is one of the most special and memorable moments of your life, and you want to look and feel your absolute best. One key element to achieving that bridal glow is to prepare your skin well in advance. With careful attention and a consistent skincare routine, you can enhance your natural beauty and radiance which will decrease the need for excess makeup and allow what makeup you do wear to go on perfectly. Here are our tips to help you achieve a flawless complexion for your big day.

  1. Start Early and Be Consistent: The earlier you begin your skincare routine and the more consistent you are, the better the results.  Aim to get a professional consultation, ideally one year before your wedding day, but at the very least- three to six months. They will assess your skin type and help address specific concerns with a tailored skincare routine and/or treatments. This timeline allows your skin to adjust to new products and ensures that any potential issues are addressed well in advance.
  2. Get Monthly Hydrafacials: Regular Hydrafacial treatments each month before your wedding offer deep cleansing, exfoliation, and intense hydration for clear, radiant skin. The quick and customizable nature allows for a personalized approach to address short or long-term concerns including fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven texture. With immediate results and minimal downtime, Hydrafacials are convenient for busy brides looking for quick and effective skincare solutions. Additionally, the stress-relieving and pampering aspects of the treatment provide a holistic approach to achieving a glowing and youthful appearance for your special day.
  3. Consider Injectables: Starting neuromodulators (Botox, Dysport, etc.) and/or fillers at least 6 to 12 months before your wedding is recommended for optimal results. Neuromodulators require time to take effect and settle, smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles, while fillers need a gradual approach for natural-looking results. Initiating these treatments well in advance ensures that any touch-ups or adjustments to the treatment plan can be made, allowing brides to achieve a refreshed and youthful appearance that enhances their natural beauty on the wedding day.
  4. Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day because proper hydration helps maintain skin elasticity and reduces the appearance of fine lines. Consider also incorporating hydrating masks into your routine to give your skin an extra boost.
  5. Protect Your Skin: Sun protection is crucial. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 every day, even on cloudy days. Sunscreen protects your skin from harmful UV rays, preventing sun damage and premature aging.
  6. Watch Your Diet: A balanced and nutritious diet contributes to healthy skin. Include fruits, vegetables, and foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, like salmon and flaxseeds. Limit the intake of processed and sugary foods, as they can contribute to skin issues.
  7. Adequate Sleep: Make sure you get enough sleep each night. Quality sleep allows your skin to repair and regenerate, leaving you with a fresh and vibrant complexion. Aim for 7-9 hours of sleep per night in the months leading up to your wedding.
  8. Stress Management: Wedding planning can be stressful, but chronic stress can take a toll on your skin. Practice stress-reducing activities such as yoga, meditation, or deep breathing exercises to keep your mind and skin calm.
  9. Trial and Error: Avoid introducing new products too close to your wedding day. Test any new skincare products well in advance to ensure they don’t cause irritation or breakouts.

Achieving radiant skin for your wedding day requires a combination of early planning, a consistent skincare routine, and healthy lifestyle choices. With dedication to self-care and a mindful approach to skincare, you’ll be on your way to glowing with confidence as you walk down the aisle.
