Pre-Holiday Skin Strategy: Look Snatched by New Year’s (Without Injectables)
Holiday Season: Where “Glowing” and “Panicking” Collide
The holidays are coming. You’re juggling parties, shopping, family, and photos, and suddenly realizing your skin hasn’t gotten the memo.
But don’t panic (or run to the nearest injector).
With the right timing and treatments, you can absolutely look refreshed, lifted, and luminous by New Year’s. No needles required.
At The Bare Effect, we help Scottsdale clients map out smart treatment timelines that deliver results without downtime.
When to Start: The Countdown
If your goal is to look your best for December parties and photos, September/October is your ideal time to start. But if you’ve waited too long, don’t panic! Here is what we suggest.
6-8 weeks out — Microneedling + UltraMD + Exosomes
Stimulates collagen, evens tone, fades pigment. Plenty of recovery time before events
3-4 weeks out — Microneedling + BioRePeel
Brightens glow, tightens pores and smooths fine lines with minimal to no flaking
1 week out — Facial Sculpting or Lymphatic Massage
De-puffs, lifts, and defines jawline + cheekbones
48 hours before — Hydration facial + Mini Peel + LED
The Bare Luxe was developed as our “Red Carpet” facial to give you that stellar glow. It smooths and tightens skin, reduces redness, boosts circulation, perfect for photo day
The result: firmer, smoother, glowing skin by New Year’s. No filters needed
Skip the Needles, Keep the Results
Injectables aren’t the only way to look lifted.
Our non-invasive combination approach works naturally with your skin to tighten, contour, and renew:
Tixel: Tightens + refines without downtime
UltraMD: Deep collagen and pigment resurfacing
Microneedling + Growth Factors: Smooths lines, boosts glow
Facial Sculpting Massage: Lifts + defines jawline naturally
Chemical Peels: Evens tone and texture safely
It’s like a seasonal refresh for your collagen.
The Bare Effect “Snatched Skin” Formula
Resurface (6-8 weeks out): Smooth pigment and lines, stimulate collagen
Rebuild (3-4 weeks out): Stimulate collagen, boost hydration
Refine (1 week out): Lift, sculpt, and calm skin
Protect (daily): SPF, antioxidants, barrier repair
And yes, our clients walk into holiday parties looking like they had something done—without actually having something done.
Skin-Healthy Holiday Habits
Because great skin isn’t just what you do on it. It’s what you do for it.
Hydrate: One glass of water for every cocktail.
Eat smart: Focus on protein + veggies; avoid high-sugar holiday treats that cause inflammation.
Sleep: Collagen regenerates overnight. No serum can fix sleep deprivation.
Use antioxidants daily: Vitamin C + niacinamide protect against environmental stressors.
FAQs
Can I do Tixel or UltraMD close to the holidays?
Yes! If scheduled 4–6 weeks out, you’ll be fully healed and glowing by New Year’s.
Will I peel or flake?
Maybe a little, but we’ll guide you through it, and plan your timeline so it happens before your big events.
Do these treatments replace Botox?
They can’t freeze muscles, but they do firm, smooth, and lift naturally. Ideal for anyone wanting to age gracefully, not drastically.
