If your social calendar is not filled to the brim this holiday season, and you actually have more time on your hands than you know what to do with, it could be great timing for plastic surgery or other large cosmetic procedures. It is hard to find time during the year to devote to resting and healing following a large surgery or procedure, but many people have a few weeks around the holidays that would provide them with all the time they need. We do find that for certain people, the holidays can be an extremely convenient time to have cosmetic surgery or strong laser procedures performed, as they have enough time in their schedules to accommodate the downtime that comes with larger, more aggressive treatments.
Depending on the individual patient’s desires and needs, any facial plastic or reconstructive surgery could be performed over their holiday break. At Kalos, we find that many patients choose to undergo larger cosmetic procedures such as face lift, rhinoplasty, and blepharoplasty surgeries. They enjoy the fact that they can relax at home during their recovery period and attend follow up visits with their physician without having to attend other social or work engagements.
As well, many patients choose to have fractional CO2 laser treatments done over the holiday break. Specifically, we are referring to the Cutera Pearl Fractional laser treatment, which is an aggressive laser procedure designed to deliver extreme anti-aging and resurfacing effects. Every patient’s recovery period can differ slightly, but most patients are fully healed in about 7-10 days. During this time, extra care is taken to ensure proper healing, and the patient plays a large role in caring for their skin over the recovery period. The results are phenomenal after this procedure, and once they are healed and return to normal activities, they will stun with their refreshed, rejuvenated complexion.
If you have time this holiday season to undergo a big cosmetic procedure that you have been wanting to do but maybe haven’t had the time for yet, consult with the experts at Kalos to find out more information. We are always dedicated to helping you put your best face forward!
