Preparing for a Special Occasion: How to Optimise Your Skin Before an Event

Updated: Apr 22

Whether you’re attending a wedding, formal gathering, or milestone celebration, preparing your skin in advance can help you look and feel your best. At Clinic4O2 in Takanini, our medical facial treatments are designed to support skin health and enhance your natural complexion — with treatment plans tailored to your timeline.


Why Timing Matters

Preparing your skin before an event is about more than one treatment — it’s about supporting your skin’s natural renewal cycle. Booking the right treatment at the right time helps minimise the risk of irritation and allows your skin to settle, leaving it looking refreshed.


Recommended Pre-Event Treatments

Depending on your skin type and goals, your provider may recommend one or more of the following:


  • Dermaplane and peel to gently remove any superficial fine hairs also known as 'peach fuzz', and dead skin cells, to hydrate and nourish the skin leaving it smooth and radiant. As a result - makeup goes on smoother and active ingredients in skincare are able to penetrate deeper for enhanced effect and targeted action.

  • Venus Versa Radio Frequency Skin Tightening can help tighten and lift the skin without any downtime or discomfort. A combination of RF and PEMF patented technologies can help stimulate collagen, elastin, promote blood flow, reduce puffiness and dark circles.

  • The 4O2 Glow Bespoke Facial A fully customised clinical facial for an unparalleled glow and radiance using a combination of advanced technologies and treatments. The facial includes a dermaplane, a peel, Venus Versa RF skin tightening and a Venus Glow hydrating facial treatment leaving skin exceptionally clean, smooth and radiant.

  • Profhilo (where suitable) This injectable treatment is one of the clinic favourites to increase hydration, improve skin quality and elasticity. It is typically performed at least 1 week prior to an event. For optimal results we recommend a Venus Versa Tribella treatment 1-2 weeks prior.


What to Expect Post-Treatment

Most medical facials involve no downtime, although some clients may experience mild redness for a few hours. Your provider will advise you on aftercare, including:

  • Avoiding direct sun exposure

  • Using broad-spectrum SPF daily

  • Following a skincare routine suited to your skin type


Medical-grade products may be recommended to maintain your skin’s balance and hydration in the lead-up to your event.


Is a Consultation Needed?

Yes — a consultation ensures your chosen treatment aligns with your skin type, concerns, and event timeline. This helps avoid last-minute sensitivity or irritation.
