The moment of the wedding

What a wedding asks of skin and body

A wedding is one of the most photographed days of a lifetime and comes after months of planning, fittings and anticipation. In preparation consultations, brides and grooms almost always bring the same concerns: skin seen up close, smile lines, the measurements of their outfit and the tension that keeps building.

Dr Michelle Campagnoli assesses each case and proposes only what makes sense, and when. Nothing is promised and nothing is done without a medical assessment.

  • Skin in photographs and up close

    The day is photographed up close, with flash and layered make-up. Pores, fine lines, marks and texture show more than in the mirror, and so does skin tired from months of stress. That is why skin is the foundation of everything.

  • Expression lines when smiling

    Smiling and being moved again and again accentuates the lines around the eyes and forehead. The doctor assesses what makes sense to soften and what is better left natural, so that your face stays your own.

  • The measurements of the dress or suit

    Fittings take place months ahead and, at this stage, it is common to look at your body more critically and feel larger than you are. The body assessment helps you understand what is fluid retention, what is localised fat and what can still be addressed in time.

  • The tension of the big day

    Months of planning build up tension in the back, neck and legs, and can worsen the feeling of swelling. Massage and drainage help you relax and feel your body lighter.

What we do

A protocol for every skin type

No two faces are alike. After assessing your skin, Dr Michelle chooses the ritual, the number of sessions and the interval between them, so that your skin reaches the day at its best. They are suitable for brides and grooms.

The rituals belong to our Facial mesoaesthetics. The choice is always made by the doctor after the assessment, and results vary from person to person.

  • Oily skin with enlarged pores

    Balance, not aggression. Regulates oiliness, minimises pores and gives a more even finish, which shows more under make-up and in photographs.

    Protocols: Ritual Sebo Balance · Ritual Pureza

  • Dehydrated or dull skin

    Replenishes lost moisture and restores comfort, radiance and softness to skin that feels tight and lacks luminosity.

    Protocols: Ritual Hydralux · Skinbooster

  • Sensitive or reactive skin

    Calms redness and strengthens the skin barrier, so that you arrive at the day at ease.

    Protocols: Ritual Calma

  • Uneven tone and marks

    Evens out skin tone and softens marks. For persistent pigmentation, such as melasma, there are specific methods, prescribed by a doctor.

    Protocols: Ritual Clareza · Ritual Renova Peel · Ritual Cosmelan Method · Ritual Dermamelan Method

    Helps to manage acne and blemishes and to improve texture and the marks they leave behind.

  • Tired, dull skin

    Renews the surface, revives radiance and protects the skin from pollution, sun and stress.

    Protocols: Ritual Luminé · Ritual Antiox Ferulic · Regenerating cleanse

  • Expression lines when smiling

    Softens the lines around the eyes and forehead that show when you smile or strain, without erasing expression. The doctor assesses what to do and what to leave natural.

    Medical indication: Skinbooster · Microneedling · Biostimulators

Body and well-being

Arrive at the day with a lighter body

Dress and suit fittings take place months ahead, and that is when we look at our bodies most. The medical assessment separates fluid retention, localised fat and laxity, and proposes a personalised plan.

For brides and grooms

Contours and measurements

Body assessment and a plan to work on localised fat, cellulite, laxity and fluid retention, with minimally invasive medical treatments. These are not weight-loss treatments, and the doctor explains what is realistic to expect in the time you have.

For brides and grooms

Massage and drainage

Massages that ease built-up tension in the back, neck and legs, and drainage that activates circulation and leaves the body feeling less swollen. Such as Toque Relax, which can be booked directly, or Toque Corpo Leve, which combines drainage and relaxation and is only carried out on medical advice.

What to do, and when

Everyone has their own pace. This is the general map, which the doctor adjusts once she knows you. If your wedding is less than a year away, there is still a way forward: the assessment consultation will tell you what is still in time.

How far in advance should I start preparing my skin and scalp?

Ideally, start about 12 months before, because some concerns, such as marks, hair loss or patchy beards, take months to assess and treat. If your wedding is sooner, the assessment consultation will tell you what can still be done in time.

What happens at the first consultation?

Dr Michelle Campagnoli listens to what bothers you most, examines your skin and scalp, asks about your history and medication, and explains the options. You leave the consultation with a phased plan, adjusted to your wedding date.

Is the calendar suitable for both grooms and brides?

Yes. The phases are the same; what changes is what is treated. For brides, facial skin and hair tend to weigh more, and for grooms, skin, hair and beard.

Expression lines and pores: is it worth treating them before the wedding?

In close-up photographs and with make-up, enlarged pores and smile lines show more. The doctor assesses your skin and tells you whether there is anything to do and when, because some care takes weeks or months to settle. The aim is a natural face, not a different one.

Brides worry about the measurements of the dress. Can Luxmed help?

Yes. At the assessment consultation, the doctor examines the body, separates fluid retention from localised fat or laxity, and proposes a personalised plan with minimally invasive treatments and massage. These are not weight-loss treatments, and results vary from person to person. The earlier you begin, the calmer the road.

Do massage and drainage help before the wedding?

They help ease built-up tension in the back, neck and legs and activate circulation, which gives the feeling of a lighter, less swollen body. The massages are given by massage therapists and can be booked directly; drainage is only carried out on medical advice, so it begins with an assessment consultation, and swelling that persists should be seen by the doctor first. Close to the day, gentle massages that the body already knows are the ones to choose.

Can I have a treatment in the week of the wedding?

Generally, this is not advisable. Close to the day, the most prudent approach is maintenance only, because any new treatment may cause redness or reactions. The doctor will tell you the last safe moment in each case.

How much does the wedding plan cost?

The price is only set after the assessment, because it depends on what the doctor finds and on what makes sense for you. Chat with our assistant on WhatsApp and she will explain how to book.

Are results guaranteed?

No. Results vary from person to person. At the consultation, the doctor explains what is realistic to expect in your case and in the time you have.

What if I have sensitive skin or react easily?

Tell us at the consultation. The doctor adapts the plan and allows more time between treatments, so that your skin reaches the day calm.

When should I start preparing my body?

Ideally, speak to the doctor about six months ahead, so there is time to assess and adjust the plan. In the final weeks only maintenance remains, with massage and gentle care.

How do I book the assessment consultation?

Via WhatsApp, on +351 923 543 091. The assistant offers you two time slots and confirms the booking with you. If you already have your wedding date, mention it straight away.

Do I need to bring anything?

If you have recent test results or know which medicines you take, it helps to bring them or mention them. It also helps to give the wedding date and, if you already know, the type of hairstyle or make-up you will have.

We could not find that question. Ask us on WhatsApp
