2 Years Ahead of Your Wedding Date
Sofwave
An advanced ultrasound treatment designed to stimulate collagen production deep within the skin for natural, long-term lifting and tightening. It’s ideal to begin further out for collagen banking and results that build gradually over time, improving skin laxity along the jawline, brows, and neck. Starting early allows you to achieve a subtle, sculpted look that feels refreshed and refined by your wedding day.
Sculptra
A biostimulatory injectable that works beneath the surface to rebuild your skin’s collagen framework over time. Rather than immediate volume, it creates gradual, natural-looking fullness and improved skin quality that continues to improve over several months and lasts years. Getting a head start ensures long term, undetectable enhancement that lasts until you walk down the aisle.
1 Year Ahead of Your Wedding Date
PRFM for Skin Rejuvenation
Start early with a PRFM series for the undereyes, as results will continue to improve for 6–12 months. This treatment uses your body’s own growth factors to stimulate collagen and restore delicate skin. Expect improvement in dark circles, puffiness, hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and volume loss for a brighter, well-rested look by your big day.
PRFM for Hair Rejuvenation
From your own blood draw, a platelet-rich fibrin matrix is processed and injected into the hair follicles to promote thicker, healthier hair growth over time. Beginning a year in advance allows for multiple sessions and gradual improvement in density and shedding. By your wedding, your hair will appear fuller, stronger, and glossier in every photo.
HALO TRIBRID
A next-generation laser that combines HALO, Moxi and Erbium wavelengths to target texture, tone, and laxity in a single session. It improves wrinkles, acne scars, pigmentation, sagging and overall skin quality while stimulating long-term collagen production. Starting a year out gives your skin plenty of time to heal, regenerate new collagen and elastin, and reveal a smoother, more radiant complexion. Available at JECT's West Village location.
6 Months Before Your Wedding
BBL + Moxi Series
The most comprehensive laser duo on the market, this pairing treats redness, hyperpigmentation, enlarged pores, uneven skin texture, dullness, and scarring—all with minimal downtime. Three treatment sessions are recommended, spaced one month apart. By the final session, your skin will look clearer, brighter, and photo-ready with a noticeable glow.
Facial Balancing
Facial balancing is the use of wrinkle reducers and dermal filler to enhance proportions and create overall facial harmony (so every angle is your best angle). This is the time to subtly refine areas like the lips, cheeks, or jawline while maintaining a natural look. Six months ahead of your big day allows for any necessary adjustments and time for the product to settle.
2 Months Before Your Wedding
Microneedling with Salmon DNA
This powerful combination stimulates collagen while delivering regenerative ingredients that support deep skin repair. Microneedling helps reduce pore size, fine lines, and scarring, while Salmon DNA strengthens the skin barrier for smoother, healthier-looking skin. At two months out, you’ll still be glowing strong on wedding day.
Botox and Other Wrinkle Reducers
6–8 weeks is the perfect timeline for pre-wedding wrinkle reducers like Botox, leaving enough time for results to settle beautifully. This ensures a smooth, refreshed appearance without looking overdone. It also allows time for any small touch-ups so everything is perfectly in place.
1 Week Before Your Wedding
Aquagold
The ultimate pre-event glow, Aquagold delivers a customized blend of wrinkle reducers Botox, hyaluronic acid, and vitamin C just beneath the skin’s surface. It instantly refines pores, smooths texture, and boosts radiance with minimal downtime. Results peak right at 7-10 days, giving you that lit-from-within glow just in time for every photo and celebration.
