Month 1-2: Consultation and Assessment
Consultation with a dermatologist or other trained skincare specialist should absolutely take place before beginning any sort of skincare regimen. They will examine your skin, note any problems, and then make recommendations for a treatment regimen that is individualized to meet your specific requirements. This first phase lays the groundwork for the following months’ worth of work.

Make sure to pick skincare products that are formulated for your particular skin type, and stick to your program religiously.

Month 5-6: Introduce Targeted Treatments
Now that you’ve got a grasp of the basic, it’s time to start incorporating targeted treatments into your routine. These may consist of serums, exfoliants, or specialist masks, among other options. Be careful to follow the instructions given to you by your professional and pay attention to how your skin reacts. If you have not already started on monthly facials, now would be a great time. Avoid introducing new invasive or targeted treatments nearer to the date of your wedding to avoid adverse reactions that for some, may take time to heal.
