Well, hello, hello, hello, guys. You're listening to Beauty Bites with Dr. K. Secrets of a Plastic

Surgeon, and it's time for a five-minute

Friday. This week I'm going to talk all about bridal beauty and your bridal beauty countdown.

If you are a bride, it's so important to get started on the little tweaks and treatments that you want to do

well ahead of the wedding. We don't want anyone

getting bruised or swollen or feeling like they did something too soon to their face. It's so

important to think about your bridal countdown. And your wedding is one of the biggest events of your

life. We know that wedding planning's not easy, just like flowers,

dresses and venues, your face takes time as well. I encourage all brides to maintain a natural look.

People love you for who you are, including your groom, including his family, your friends. You don't

have to do dramatic and drastic changes in preparation

for a wedding. Of course, you're going to eat right. Don't starve yourself. Do start exercising.

And then take a look at your face and think about what are the things that you'd like to tweak

or improve upon and do some enhancements. The goal is really bringing out your best features.

The goal, I think, is to look charismatic and beautiful and photogenic on your wedding photos,

which are such an important thing that are preserved for life. So, one year before your wedding,

what should you do? Let's start with major changes.

So start with fixing dental imperfections, perhaps, braces or invisibleine. Think about facial

asymmetry. If there's anything you want to work on with hair growth, sometimes hair also can take

six to 12 months to really grow in thick and nice.

So a year before your wedding would be great for dental work as well as hair issues and maybe

laser hair removal, which takes four to six sessions and gradual improvements occur.
