The pre-festival countdown always seems like magic. The atmosphere is charged with excitement, houses light up, wardrobe and makeup get a new makeover, and social diaries are packed with festivities. But let's be realistic—between shopping, cooking, and non-stop prep, skincare suffers the most. And then one fine day, a couple of days before the festival, the mirror jolts us: "Your skin needs some love too!" So, here’s your ultimate guide to skincare for festival season.
If you wish to walk into the celebrations looking radiant, flawless, and ready for the cameras, dermatologist-recommended quick-fix solutions to skin care can do the trick. Ditch the idea of depending on heavy makeup alone, let your skin radiate its natural glow. At Estique Clinic in Gurgaon, treatments suggested by dermatologists can get you that picture-perfect festive glow, safely and efficiently.
Why Dermatologist Treatments Before Festivals?
Festivals bring long days, late nights, and loads of sweets, but also breakouts. A good dermatologist will always recommend a skincare for festival season that makes your skin not only superficially bright but deepened rejuvenated. Unlike facials done at home, in-clinic treatments address deeper issues such as dullness, pigmentation, dehydration, and fine lines—giving your skin an instant yet healthy pick-me-up.
Top Dermatologist-Recommended Treatments for an Instant Glow
Here are some of the best picks to make your skin festival-ready:
HydraFacial for Glowing Skin
This is your trusty pre party glow facial. HydraFacial cleanses, exfoliates, removes impurities, and delivers hydrating serums to your skin all in one session.
Best for - Dull, exhausted-looking skin
Sessions required - Only one, done 3–4 days prior to the festival
Results - Instant glow, smoothness, and deep hydration
Chemical Peel for Glowing Skin
If pigmentation, tanning, or irregular skin color is your top issue, a peel is the solution. Estique dermatologists utilize safe, specially tailored peels that shed dead skin and enhance cell turnover.
Best for - Uneven tone, pigmentation, sun damage
Number of sessions required - 1–2, scheduled a week or more in advance of celebrations
Outcome - Clearer, brighter, more even-toned complexion
Laser Treatment for Radiant Skin
Need a quick and dramatic change? Laser treatment for glowing skin targets pigmentation, sunspots, and dullness, in addition to stimulating collagen.
Ideal for - Lasting glow, pigmentation, and anti-aging advantages
Number of sessions required: Depending on your skin, 1 session a few weeks prior to the festival can make all the difference
Outcome - Natural glow, better skin texture, and minimized fine lines
Dermatologist Facial Treatments (Medi-Facials)
Unlike salon facials, dermatologist facial treatments are result-driven. These can include oxygen facials, hydrating infusions, or collagen-boosting facials tailored to your skin type.
Best for - Customised, instant rejuvenation
Sessions needed - Just one, ideally 3–5 days before the event
Results - Plump, fresh, and healthy-looking skin
Skin Boosters (Injectable Glow)
If you’re open to advanced options, skin boosters like hyaluronic acid injections can deeply hydrate your skin from within.
Best for - Fine lines, dry or dull skin, deep hydration
Sessions required - 1 session, improvements seen after 1–2 weeks
Outcome - Soft, luminous, youthful-looking skin on which makeup goes on smoothly
Festive Selfie Season Quick Botox & Fillers
For a more contoured, young appearance ahead of all the festive selfies, low doses of Botox or dermal fillers are an option. These are being guided by dermatologists and offer subtle but effective outcomes.
Best for - Fine lines, under-eye hollows, smile lines
Sessions required - Single sitting, at least 7–10 days prior to event
Outcome - A refreshed, smoother look
Beauty Tips for Face Along with Treatments
Even with the most effective treatments, straightforward routines help your glow last:
Stay hydrated - your skin will thank you.
Use a dermatologist skincare routine with sunscreen and moisturizer.
Sleep enough—your skin heals at night.
Don't try out new products at the last minute before the festival.
