Many people turn to professional treatments to help them look their best on special occasions. Presenting an attractive, positive self-image can be a major confidence-booster, especially for major life events like weddings.

Advancements in technology and less invasive techniques have made cosmetic treatments more accessible and appealing—there are plenty of options that are quick, involve minimal pain, and little to no recovery time while delivering major benefits.  

According to a report from RealSelf, wedding-related reviews posted on their site have increased by 30 percent in 2019—with nonsurgical treatments making up 46% of all wedding-related reviews in the past year. Their data also reveals the most popular types of nonsurgical cosmetic treatments among pre-wedding patients.

Here are the top three types of treatments people undergo before a wedding, according to the report:

Nonsurgical Fat Reduction

Nonsurgical fat reduction includes treatments such as KYBELLA and EMSCULPT.    

Kybella is the first and only FDA-approved injectable treatment for a double chin. It creates a noticeable reduction in submental fullness and leads to an improved chin profile. When injected into the fat beneath the chin, KYBELLA works by destroying the fat cells, without the scarring or lengthy recovery time of surgery. 

EMSCULPT is a popular nonsurgical body contouring option for both men and women that can eliminate unwanted fat in the stomach or buttocks, while improving muscle tone and definition. High-intensity pulses cause muscles to contract rapidly in a short amount of time, painlessly and effortlessly building muscle and burning fat, helping you quickly achieve a leaner more sculpted body.  

Toxins 

Botulinum toxins such as BOTOX and DYSPORT are another popular pre-wedding cosmetic treatment. These injections help to temporarily reduce the appearance of wrinkles. They are commonly used to treat horizontal forehead lines or furrows, frown lines between the eyebrows, and fine lines or crow’s feet around the eyes. The treatments cause the underlying facial muscles to relax, so skin becomes smoother and firmer, diminishing wrinkles and lines, and signs of aging skin. 

Injectable Fillers

Dermal fillers are used to address a variety of concerns in several different areas of the face. They deliver extremely natural looking results, but can also make a dramatic improvement in your overall appearance. You still look like you—only more youthful and revitalized. 

Among their myriad applications, injectable fillers can help address smile lines or parenthesis around the mouth, create plumper lips, and correct hollowness under the eyes for a more rested, healthier appearance. They restore lost volume, giving skin a fuller, smoother look. They can also add definition and enhance your features by sculpting and improving the contours of your face.
