Re: facial
Honestly, if you've never had one before you have no idea how your skin could react. If you want to do it, I wouldn't wait until 2 weeks before the wedding. Even people who aren't prone to break out can break out after a facial..and your face can stay red or puffy for at least a few days. Not something you want to worry about.

Re: facial
I don't recommend that you do that. I suggest you get one 2 months before to see how your face reacts to it. I know that after I get a deep cleansing facial my face is red and irritated. It takes about a week before it looks great. Everyone's face is different. The rule of thumb, 'Don't try anything new before a big event!' They say this with hair cuts, colors and other things. Good Luck

Re: facial
I would definitely not do this - you need at leaste two months before for your first facial. Never try something new (whether it be to your hair, skin, etc.) right before your wedding.

Re: facial
I have had many facials, but my skin usually looks the best 3 weeks after I have had it done. If you have never had one before I would not start now since your wedding is so close. Sorry

Re: facial
I wouldn't recommend it, and I'm a practial exam away from my esthetics license (fancy way of saying facialist), I would give at least a month to tow months out depending on how severe your acne is, especially if you never had a service.
Is your skin behaving right now? If it is, I wouldn't risk it and just leave it alone, as experimenting before a big day such as your wedding is best to be avoided. FM me if you have something specific that is concerning, perhaps I can help.
