A Complete Guide to Care 3 Months, 1 Month, and 1 Week Before Important Events







"I suddenly got an interview scheduled,

if I get a lifting treatment now,

will it still be effective?"



If you have an important event coming up, such as a wedding, wedding photoshoot, interview, family photo session, or graduation ceremony, it is natural to pay extra attention to your skin condition.



So people often try something suddenly in hopes of doing something good for their skin, but in fact, there is no such thing as cramming when it comes to skin care. Consistent care is the most ideal approach.



However, when I see people rushing in for the bright, shining moments of their lives, I sometimes empathize during consultations, and then I start thinking about the most effective methods based on the time that remains.



So today, I will talk about what kind of care may be effective based on how much time is left before an important event.



That said, since this post is intended for many readers and therefore covers only very general information, I recommend that when you actually receive care, you first consult and proceed with a method suited to your own skin condition and physical state.

If you have more than 3 months left?

If you still have at least 3 months or more, you may want to consider lifting procedures.



Typical lifting procedures include Ulthera, Thermage, and Onda Lifting. First, let’s briefly look at what each procedure is.

Ulthera Prime

Ulthera is a procedure that delivers high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) energy into the deeper fascial layer of the skin to create coagulation points through heat.



As the body goes through the process of healing these thermal coagulation points, new collagen is produced and the elasticity of sagging skin is restored.



Since this method pulls up the fascial layer that supports the skin, it is effective for skin that has lost a lot of elasticity and has sagged.

Thermage FLX

Thermage is a procedure that delivers focused heat into the dermal layer of the skin using radiofrequency (RF) energy. This heat causes the existing collagen to contract, producing an immediate tightening response.



After that, new collagen forms to fill in the area, helping improve skin texture and fine wrinkles.

Onda Lifting

Onda Lifting uses radiofrequency to generate heat within the skin, inducing improvements in skin elasticity and a reduction in fat cells.



The effect varies depending on the handpiece used. If energy is delivered to the dermal layer, it can help restore skin elasticity; if it is delivered to the subcutaneous fat layer, it can help reduce fat.



A common feature of lifting procedures is that after energy is delivered into the skin, time is needed for collagen regeneration and structural reorganization.

So this process needs enough time to take place before a noticeable effect can be seen, and the point at which the effect usually begins to be felt is around 1 month after the procedure.



Considering that the effect is felt most strongly after about 2 to 3 months, it is difficult to recommend lifting when an important event is too close.



For reference, which lifting method is best for you depends on your current skin condition and concerns.



Therefore, the most accurate way to determine which method best addresses your concerns and would be helpful is to confirm it through an in-person consultation.

If you have 1 month left?



If you have about a month left before the event, injectable treatments such as muscle-relaxing injections or skin boosters may be helpful rather than lifting procedures, which take relatively longer to show effects.



• Muscle-relaxing injections (botulinum toxin)



This procedure temporarily blocks the nerves to the muscles, preventing repeated muscle use.

It is used for wrinkles caused by frequent facial expressions or for enlarged muscles.



Depending on the concern, it can be used for fine wrinkles around the eyes, horizontal forehead lines, glabellar lines, or to contour a square jawline. It can also be used on the body, such as the trapezius muscles or calves.



Although there are individual differences, the effect usually begins to appear gradually about 3 days after treatment.



You can feel the effect more fully after 1 to 2 weeks, but considering individual differences and skin reactions, it is good to receive it about 1 month before the event.

• Skin booster



A skin booster is a treatment focused on improving the skin’s texture and providing hydration.



There are various types, such as Rejuran and Juvelook, and the right one should be selected based on your skin condition and the desired effect.



In general, it helps smooth the skin and bring out a healthy inner glow, so it can be a good option before a day when you want your photos to turn out well.



The effect is usually felt gradually about 1 to 2 weeks after treatment.

In the case of skin boosters, you can usually return to daily life right away, but there may be an embossed appearance (a normal reaction in which the injected medication creates raised bumps).



Depending on your skin condition, swelling or bruising may occur, so it is better to receive treatment about 1 month before the event, allowing time for these to subside and for the effect to appear.

If you have 1 week left?



Now it is truly urgent. You have only 1 week left before the event.



In this case, rather than starting something new, it is more effective to focus on stabilizing your current skin.



If you newly start an energy-based treatment with strong stimulation or an injection-based procedure at this point, there is a chance that the effects will not yet appear and you may reach an important day before your skin condition has recovered.



At this stage, there are broadly two suitable directions.

First, gentle dead skin cell care.



Old dead skin cells on the skin can make the skin tone look dull and can also cause makeup to sit poorly or pill.



Just basic exfoliation care, such as skin scaling or Aqua Peel using AHA/BHA solutions, can help refine skin texture without placing much burden on the skin.



Next is focused soothing and moisturizing care.



The more stable the skin barrier is, the more naturally makeup applies and the slower it is to break down.

Moisturizing and soothing care through ultrasound, such as Sonocare, is also a good option. (Effective for dry or redness-prone skin)



Care like cryo treatment, which cools skin that has become overheated, is also good. (Effective when used for soothing after low-intensity procedures such as Aqua Peel)



To summarize, when an event is imminent, it is appropriate to avoid repeatedly doing new things to the skin and instead focus on complementing its current condition and keeping it stable.







If you are looking for a dermatology clinic near Jamsil Station before an important event, I recommend first calculating how much time is left.

No matter how good a treatment may be, if it does not suit your skin condition and schedule, it may be useless.



Also, as mentioned at the beginning, the time-based guidelines in this post explain a general direction.



Because the speed and degree of results can differ depending on each person’s skin condition, elasticity, and muscle distribution, please make sure to receive an accurate diagnosis of your current skin condition first, and then proceed after making a plan.
