Holiday Skin Prep: Your 3-Week Countdown to the Jo Glow 

The holiday season is here — and your skin deserves to shine as brightly as your calendar. Thanksgiving is around the corner, and the December festivities will be here before you know it.

If you’re waiting until the week before your events to “do something” for your skin… stop right there. 

Real transformation takes time. The most effective treatments — like microneedling, BioRePeel, and our Environ DF Facials — work with your skin’s natural renewal cycle. The sooner you start, the more luminous your results. 

Here’s your week-by-week roadmap to glowing, healthy, photo-ready skin this season — straight from Newport Beach’s luxury skincare destination. 

 

Week 1: Build the Foundation (Nov 8 – 12) 

Priority: Book your primary treatment — today. 

If your main concern is texture, fine lines, or scarring:
Treatment: Microneedling + Exosomes 

  • Stimulates collagen, firms skin, and smooths pores. 
  • Results peak in 2 weeks — just in time for Thanksgiving. 

If your main concern is dullness or uneven tone:
Treatment: BioRePeel

  • Reveals brighter, more even skin tone with minimal downtime.
  • For best results, schedule two peels about 10 days apart. 

If you want instant rejuvenation and hydration:
Treatment: Environ DF Growth Factor Facial  + Vitamin C Peel

  • Uses sound + current technology to push peptides, vitamins, and growth factors deeper. 
  • Immediate glow, long-term results.

  • Add LED Light Therapy or Lymphatic Massage to boost results 
  • Drink plenty of water and get your beauty sleep
