Whether it’s a wedding, reunion, vacation, or a major work milestone—you want to look and feel your absolute best when the big day arrives. The right aesthetic treatments can enhance your natural beauty, refresh your appearance, and give you that radiant confidence that turns heads and lights up every room.
At Renewed Radiance, we’ve carefully curated both laser and aesthetic services that will give you a synergistic glow up!
We believe in glow ups that feel effortless, authentic, and like an enhanced version of the beauty you already radiate. That’s why we’ve rounded up our Top 5 aesthetic services that deliver fast, visible results with little to no downtime—so you can walk into your next event glowing from the inside out.
Top 5 Aesthetic Services That Instantly Boost Confidence Before an Event
1. Glow-Boosting Facial (Like a Deep hydration facial or Radiance Facial)
If your skin’s feeling dull, congested, or just “blah,” a glow-boosting facial is your first-class ticket to radiance. We’re talking deep cleansing, exfoliation, hydration, and antioxidant infusion all in one.
Why it’s perfect before an event:
Our Deep Hydration Facial or Radiance Facial deliver an instant glow with zero downtime. They help refine pores, even out tone, and give your skin a plumped, luminous finish that looks amazing with or without makeup.
Best timing: 3–5 days before your event
✨ Pro Tip: Add an Eye Treatment or LED light therapy to boost your results!
2. Laser Hair Removal Touch-Up
Nothing boosts body confidence like smooth, stubble-free skin—especially when you’re rocking a sleeveless dress, swimsuit, or open-back outfit. If you’ve already started laser hair removal, a quick touch-up can leave your skin silky and event-ready. Or, if you haven’t yet begun your laser hair removal regimen, now is the perfect time to start. And, make sure you check in about what to do before and after laser hair removal with pre- and post-care instructions and our post about 5 Things to Expect After Laser Hair Removal.
Why it’s perfect before an event:
No razor bumps, no stubble, no waxing pain, and no last-minute shaving stress. Just soft, hair-free skin that makes getting dressed a breeze.
Best timing: 1–2 weeks before your event for laser hair removal touch ups, or 6-12 weeks if you’re just beginning your laser hair removal regimen
✨ Pro Tip: Focus on high-visibility areas like underarms, legs, or bikini line depending on your outfit.
3. SkinPen® Microneedling for Next-Level Radiance
If you’re looking for a treatment that delivers serious results—think smoother texture, minimized pores, softened scars, and a firmer feel—SkinPen® Microneedling is your go-to. This FDA-cleared collagen induction therapy uses tiny, controlled micro-injuries to kick your skin’s healing response into high gear, resulting in fresh, rejuvenated skin over the following days and weeks.
Why it’s perfect before an event:
SkinPen® helps improve overall tone, texture, and tightness—especially helpful for those battling acne scars, fine lines, or dullness. While it’s not an instant-glow treatment like a facial, clients often report noticeably smoother and more even skin within a few days post-treatment, and results continue to improve over time.
Best timing: 7–10 days before your event

4. Bright & Even Peel for Instant Glow-Up
Goodbye dullness, hello glow! The Bright & Even Peel is your shortcut to luminous, photo-ready skin. This gentle-yet-effective resurfacing treatment is designed to improve skin radiance, fade discoloration, and refine texture—leaving your complexion brighter, smoother, and more even-toned.
Why it’s perfect before an event:
This peel works its magic quickly without harsh downtime, making it ideal for a pre-event refresh. It sloughs off dead skin cells, boosts cell turnover, and enhances that healthy, lit-from-within glow that looks stunning in both natural light and flash photography.
Best timing: 5–7 days before your event
✨ Pro Tip: Pair with an LED and Lip Treatment to maximize smoothness and makeup application
5. Memberships That Keep You Glowing Year-Round
Want to keep that just-left-the-spa feeling going all year long? Our Beauty Bank Memberships are the easiest way to stay consistent with your aesthetic routine—while saving big on your favorite services and products.
Choose between two glow-getting options:

VIP Beauty Bank – $199/month
Enjoy 20% off all products and servicesbank your $199 monthly to use whenever you want!
Why it’s perfect before an event:
You can use your Beauty Bank funds monthly—or save them up for that big-ticket treatment you’ve been eyeballing (hello, SkinPen® or laser package!). It’s like setting aside a little self-care fund for Future You—who, by the way, is glowing.
Best timing: Start anytime! Your skin will thank you all year long.
✨ Pro Tip: Memberships make an amazing gift—for yourself or your bestie who deserves a little pampering.
