From Sofwave to Salmon Sperm: Every Pre-Wedding Skin Treatment to Know in 2025

Great news: Many of the above facial treatments can target skin on the body as well. Even if a professional doesn't technically offer body treatments in their practice, most will be open to back, chest, and sometimes even butt facials upon request. Below, find some specific treatments for smooth, glowing, sculpted skin from head to toe.

NECK

Most facials—such as microcurrent, cryofacials, and oxygen facials—will treat the neck in addition to the face, but when it comes to specific neck treatments, baby tox continues to be pretty popular. "We're doing a lot of what people are calling Barbie tox. I'll [inject] the trapezius muscle in the neck to soften that, so it looks really soft and elegant, especially if a bride is wearing something that's off the shoulders," Henry shares. She may also inject a few inches north in the platysma muscle to sharpen the jawline and reduce banding on the neck—a treatment she dubs the Nefertiti neck lift (named after the Egyptian Queen Nefertiti and her smooth, elongated neck).

BACK

Back facials are rising in popularity, especially HydraFacials that cleanse, extract, and hydrate the skin in one fell swoop. Some brides might even opt for a targeted laser, especially if they struggle with sun damage or congestion in the area. "Halo, Fraxel, Clear + Brilliant, BBL, Laser Genesis… All those lasers can be done from temples to toes," notes Blancato. "Chemical peels can be used all over, too. We just might adjust the one we're picking and how long it's staying on the skin."

ARMS

Again, lasers can be helpful for specific areas of concern, but Kim has specifically seen an uptick in Sofwave body treatments. "A lot of people are now doing it, not just on their face, but on their body as well. They'll do it on their arms, on their abdomen, and on their neck, and they'll do it a few months prior to the wedding to get the best results." Henry also suggests baby tox on the underarms for sweating purposes, mainly for those with outdoor weddings.

DÉCOLLETAGE

"It's hard to wear makeup on your chest (it gets on the dresses), so that's where lasers really help," advises Chang. Rather than covering up sun damage with concealer, she recommends some skin-planning beforehand with lasers like Fraxel, Pico, or Clear + Brilliant. "For both texture and pigment, I use the Clear + Brilliant Permea [a more superficial version] which helps shed that dark pigment through the surface gently," adds Henry.
