Is it too late for me to get a facial??

I have 37 days to go!!! I've never had one and I'm scared of what might happen afterwards... should I just not take the chance at this point?

Really nervous about doing it and breaking out!!

How is your skin now? If it's not breaking out & seems to be stable, I probably wouldn't chance it this late in the game. That's JMO.

When I asked Cactus Salon they said they recommend 1 1/2 - 2 weeks before the wedding.

I would do it - but do it now! My makeup artist told me less than two weeks before the wedding is not good. Your fine now. Just tell your aesthitician when your wedding is.

I am getting married 10/30 and have one scheduled 10/16 if it makes you feel better.

I would do it...But i have never broke out because of a facial..
I started breaking out last week from all this stress and to be honest it cleared up for that following day! But of course the stress is back

Re: Is it too late for me to get a facial??

I've been breaking out like crazy for the past month or so and I'm getting desperate to fix my skin!! It's for two reasons in part:

1. my gyn changed my pill
2. STRESS!!!!!

I've NEVER broken out as bad as I am now and I feel like I have to DO something. I saw my dermatologist about a month ago and he prescribed Differen which turned my skin into a desert and I had to stop using it immediately.

I would get one. As long as it's at least 2 weeks before your day. You'll be fine.

Re: Is it too late for me to get a facial??

If I were you, I'd get one this week. And then if you don't have an adverse reaction, go again in 2 weeks.

I've been going every month and because my skin is used to it my facial technician even recommends going 1 week before wedding, which I will be doing.

The issue with going right before is when you skin is not used to the treatment.

Re: Is it too late for me to get a facial??

Oh, well if you're breaking out then YES, get one! I just wouldn't do a Peel or anything extremely strong, since you don't know how you'll react.

Not too late.

I think they say 7 to 14 days but check with the aesthesian doing the facial before booking.
