When it comes to scheduling cosmetic surgery or treatments, timing is everything. Winter, with its cozy sweaters and chilly weather, is a great time of year for many cosmetic procedures. Whether you’re considering a transformation for summer or simply want to enhance your confidence, this time of year offers several advantages, from more discreet recovery to greater sun protection. If you’ve been contemplating a change, Dr. Joanne Lopes and her skilled team in Virginia Beach are here to help you shine your brightest.
Here are eight cosmetic procedures that are best performed during the winter months—and why now is the perfect time to book your consultation.
Breast Augmentation or Breast Lift
Winter is a great time to focus on your curves. Breast augmentation and lifts remain some of the most popular cosmetic surgeries, and for good reason—they can enhance your silhouette and boost your confidence.
Why Winter?
- Layered Clothing: Cozy winter wardrobes like sweaters and jackets can easily conceal post-surgical garments or any initial swelling.
- Recovery Time: You’ll have plenty of time to rest and recover indoors without the pressure of swimsuit season looming.
- Summer-Ready Results: By starting the process now, you’ll be fully healed and ready to enjoy your new look by the time warm weather arrives.
At Dr. Joanne Lopes’ practice, you’ll receive personalized care to ensure your procedure is tailored to your goals. Whether you’re looking for a subtle enhancement or a dramatic change, winter is a great time to make it happen.
Labiaplasty
For women looking to feel more comfortable and confident, Labiaplasty offers a transformative solution. This procedure involves reshaping the labia to address physical discomfort, aesthetic concerns, or both.
Why Winter?
- Discreet Recovery: Winter’s layers of clothing make it easy to maintain privacy during recovery.
- Comfortable Downtime: Cooler months naturally encourage rest and relaxation, giving your body the time it needs to heal.
- Perfect Timing: By addressing your concerns now, you’ll be fully recovered and ready for all your spring and summer plans.
Dr. Lopes specializes in creating natural-looking results that enhance both comfort and confidence. Whether your goals are functional, aesthetic, or a combination of both, Labiaplasty performed during the winter months offers a discreet, well-timed path to achieving them.
Botox® and Dermal Fillers
For those looking to refresh their appearance without surgery, Botox® and dermal fillers are a fantastic winter pick-me-up. These non-invasive treatments smooth fine lines and wrinkles, helping you achieve a more youthful and vibrant look with minimal downtime.
Why Winter?
- Holiday Glow: Winter is filled with festive gatherings and photo opportunities, making it the perfect time to put your best face forward.
- Convenient Timing: Shorter days and cooler weather naturally lend themselves to quick appointments that fit seamlessly into your schedule.
- Skin Protection: Botox® and dermal fillers don’t require significant downtime, but winter’s reduced sun exposure can further enhance your skin’s ability to heal and maintain results.
- Less Swelling: Wintertime’s cooler temperatures naturally help reduce any swelling and bruising due to these treatments, facilitating a smoother recovery.
Dr. Lopes offers expert Botox® and dermal filler treatments that deliver natural, subtle results. Whether you’re looking to soften crow’s feet, reduce forehead lines, or smooth frown lines, winter is the perfect season to refresh and rejuvenate your appearance.
MyEllevate® Facial Rejuvenation
For those seeking a minimally invasive solution to sagging skin and lax muscles in the jawline and neck area, the MyEllevate® procedure is a game-changer. This innovative treatment lifts and refines your lower face and neck with minimal downtime, delivering youthful, natural-looking results.
Why Winter?
- Quick Recovery: MyEllevate® requires less downtime than a traditional neck lift, and winter’s cozy layers make it easy to recover discreetly.
- Minimized Sun Exposure: Winter’s shorter days reduce the risk of UV damage during the healing process.
- Immediate Results: See an instant improvement in your profile, with results that continue to improve over the coming months—just in time for spring!
Dr. Lopes is proud to be one of the few doctors in the Hampton Roads area to offer MyEllevate®, a cutting-edge procedure combining advanced technology and expert precision. Using a suture support system, this treatment refines the contours of your neck and jawline without the need for major surgery. If you’re looking for a subtle but stunning transformation, MyEllevate® is the perfect winter procedure for you.
CoolSculpting® Elite
If you’re seeking non-invasive body contouring this winter, CoolSculpting® Elite is your go-to treatment to sculpt and refine your figure. Developed by scientists at Harvard University, this procedure uses Cryolipolysis® to freeze and eliminate stubborn fat cells without surgery.
Why Winter?
- Privacy for Recovery: Winter clothing like layers and thick fabrics offer the perfect cover, allowing you to heal privately.
- Season of Renewal: Use the quiet of winter to reshape your body, ensuring you emerge in spring renewed and ready.
- Extended Results: With results that gradually appear over weeks, a winter session means you’ll see optimal outcomes by the time the layers come off.
Dr. Joanne Lopes’ practice utilizes the latest CoolSculpting® Elite technology to deliver precise fat reduction and sculpting tailored to your unique physique, ensuring you can confidently achieve your body contouring goals this season.
Moxi® Skincare Lasers
Embrace the transformative power of winter with Moxi® Skincare Lasers, designed to rejuvenate and refresh your skin. These advanced laser treatments are perfect for improving skin texture, tone, and overall clarity without invasive procedures.
Why Winter?
- Optimal Healing Conditions: The cooler months provide reduced sun exposure, which is crucial for the healing process following laser treatments, minimizing the risk of pigmentation issues.
- Holiday Ready: Achieve a glowing, vibrant complexion in time for holiday photos and gatherings.
- Preparation for Warmer Days: Starting laser treatments in winter means your skin will be healed and radiant by the summer, perfect for showing off your rejuvenated look.
