Frequently Asked Questions

How far in advance should I start planning?

For the best results, start 6-12 months before your event. This gives time for surgical procedures to heal and for treatments like Sculptra to build collagen gradually. Even with just 4-6 weeks, we can make a significant difference with injectables and skin treatments.

Can I combine multiple treatments?

Absolutely! Most treatments can be safely combined. Your provider will create a coordinated plan that spaces treatments appropriately, avoiding scheduling conflicts between downtime periods.

What if my event is less than 2 weeks away?

We still have options! HydraFacial, AquaFirmeXS, and light facials can deliver instant glow with zero downtime. We recommend avoiding anything new that could cause swelling or bruising this close to your event.

Is this timeline personalized to me?

This planner gives you a smart starting point based on typical treatment timelines and recovery periods. During your consultation, Dr. McGovern's team will refine the plan based on your unique skin, health history, and specific goals.
