The Best Holiday Skin Doesn’t Start in December. It Starts in September.

The Best Holiday Skin Doesn’t Start in December. It Starts in September.

By the time most people start thinking about their skin for the holidays, it’s November. The events are on the calendar, the photos are coming, and suddenly they’re looking for something that can help in three weeks.

The problem is that the treatments making the biggest difference aren’t built for three weeks. They’re built for three months. Corrective treatments like laser, microneedling, and XERF work by triggering collagen production. Collagen remodels slowly, and that’s actually what makes the results look real. The patients who walk into December looking genuinely great are almost always the ones who started in September.

Why the Timeline Actually Matters

This isn’t about being early for the sake of it. Each corrective treatment has a biological timeline, and compressing that timeline produces weaker results.

  • Microneedling stimulates collagen that continues remodeling for 4 to 6 weeks after each session

  • CoolPeel CO2 resurfaces texture and tone, with results improving as fresh skin develops over several weeks

  • XERF builds lifting and firmness progressively, with meaningful improvement at 3 months and full results at 6

  • IPL clears pigmentation and tone, with the natural shed cycle taking 1 to 2 weeks post-treatment

A September start gives each of these treatments the room they need to do their job properly. Start in November and you’re seeing early results on New Year’s Eve, with full results arriving in February.

What a Holiday Skin Plan Looks Like

The approach at Avi Aesthetics isn’t a one-size-fits-all package. It’s a treatment sequence built around what your skin actually needs. Here’s the general framework:

Corrective Phase: September Through November

Three targeted corrective treatments selected based on your skin assessment. Depending on what your provider recommends, that might be CoolPeel CO2 for texture and tone, microneedling for scarring and collagen, XERF for lifting and laxity, or IPL for pigmentation and redness. Treatments are spaced to give skin enough time to respond between sessions.

Finishing Phase: Closer to the Holidays

A HydraFacial or OxyVerve treatment in the final stretch brings everything together. The result is immediate brightness and hydration that photographs well and holds through a full day of events.

The Holiday Countdown Skin Packages

 

All packages are paid in full upfront and offer flexible scheduling, so treatments do not have to be used during the month listed. If you are unable to use a treatment in a particular month, you can simply save it and use it at a later date.

Avi Aesthetics is now offering a Holiday Countdown Skin Package for patients ready to commit to a progressive plan through December. The package includes approximately three corrective treatments, selected in consultation with your provider, followed by a HydraFacial or OxyVerve treatment closer to your events.

There isn’t a discount on individual treatments. Instead, it’s a structured plan with a clear goal: skin that looks genuinely healthier, clearer, and more even by the time the season matters most..

September’s Additional Offers

Complimentary CoolPeel CO2, September Only

Book a qualifying Virtue RF, IPL, or XERF treatment in September and receive a complimentary CoolPeel CO2 treatment during the same appointment. That’s a $550 value, and a highly effective way to address both structural and surface concerns in a single visit.

OxyVerve and Botox Package

50 Units of Botox & Oxyverve or HydraFacial (on the same day) for only $699. Save $175. OxyVerve and Botox together address skin quality and muscle movement in one appointment, which is a practical combination for patients who want both.

Is September Too Early?

No. It’s actually pretty close to perfect. Here’s how the timeline plays out:

  • September: first corrective treatment, skin assessment and plan confirmed

  • October: second treatment, early improvements starting to show

  • November: third treatment, results building noticeably

  • December: HydraFacial or OxyVerve finishing treatment, skin at its best for the season

Patients who wait until October or November end up compressing that sequence in a way that doesn’t allow for proper healing and collagen response between sessions. The results are still there, just not as refined.

Start With a Consultation

The right plan depends on your skin. A consultation at Avi Aesthetics will look at your specific concerns, whether that’s tone, texture, laxity, or pigmentation, and build a treatment sequence that makes the most of the time between now and the holidays.

September appointments are filling. The earlier you book, the more time your treatments have to work.
