Bridal skin treatments in Bogotá
Skin is prepared ahead · not the week of the wedding
Preparing your skin for the wedding is an 8 to 12 week plan, not a last-minute treatment. At iki we combine the Bridal Ritual (Ritual Novias), facials, Hydrafacial and, if needed, injectables, on a calendar that ends with time to spare · nothing new is tried in the final week.

Bridal skin treatments in Bogotá · the week-by-week plan at iki
Order matters more than quantity. Anything that can cause swelling, peeling or need adjustment goes first; what adds radiance without risk goes last. Exact timing is set during your consultation.
12 weeks before · consultation and what takes time
A full diagnosis and a written plan. This is when to start what needs months: dark spots, acne, skin quality or laser hair removal sessions. If a filler is being considered, it is applied now or shortly after.
8 weeks before · maintenance facials
The Star Facial or Hydrafacial begins, roughly every 4 weeks. They cleanse, hydrate and show how your skin reacts, with plenty of time to spare.
4 weeks before · toxin with time to spare
If the plan includes botulinum toxin, it is applied now: the full effect arrives at around 2 weeks, leaving time for an adjustment. Peels, if indicated, are finished at this stage.
1 week before · Bridal Ritual
The Bridal Ritual, Star Facial and Star Body Treatment, is scheduled in the days before, depending on your skin. From here on, nothing new: no products or procedures your skin doesn’t already know.
What it offers
A calendar, not improvisation
Each procedure has its place in time. That way nothing causes swelling or peeling the week of the wedding.
Face and body
The Bridal Ritual brings together the Star Facial and Casmara’s Star Body Treatment, for the face, neck, décolleté and body.
Time to adjust
Toxin and any injectable are applied weeks ahead. If a touch-up is needed, there is time.
Skin that looks like yours
The goal is hydrated, rested skin, with and without makeup · not a different face in the photos.
Technology with an indication
Hydrafacial and Casmara rituals
The Star Facial combines Hydrafacial Elite, which cleanses, exfoliates, extracts and hydrates with a single handpiece, with the ampoules and masks of the Casmara rituals. The Star Body Treatment brings the same logic to the body. These treatments have no downtime, which is why they take the final stretch of the plan.
Results and aftercare
The facials leave skin cleaner and more hydrated from the first session, and the effect holds better when they are repeated within the plan. Toxin shows its full effect at around 2 weeks. What cannot be resolved in 8 to 12 weeks, such as melasma, is brought under control for the date and treatment continues after the wedding.
Aftercare after the session
- Daily sunscreen throughout the plan
- No new creams, acids or makeup in the 2 weeks before the wedding
- Avoid direct sun, tanning beds and facial waxing in the final week
- Sleep well and stay hydrated in the days before
- If something irritates your skin, check with us before treating it yourself
Results vary from patient to patient.

How far ahead should I start preparing my skin for the wedding?
Ideally 8 to 12 weeks before. That time lets you start what takes a while to show, repeat facials so your skin stabilizes, and apply injectables with room for adjustment. With less time we can still build a plan, but a shorter and more cautious one.
What does the Bridal Ritual include?
It combines the Star Facial, which pairs Hydrafacial Elite with the Casmara rituals for the face, and the Star Body Treatment for the body. It is a cleansing, hydrating and wellness treatment with no downtime, designed for the days before the event.
When should I get Botox before the wedding?
If you have had it before, about 4 weeks ahead. If it is your first time, it is better to do it earlier, to learn how your face responds. The full effect arrives at around 2 weeks and leaves time for an adjustment. It is not applied a few days before the wedding.
Can I get a filler before the wedding?
Yes, with time. A filler can leave swelling or some bruising for days and sometimes needs an adjustment at a follow-up 2–3 weeks later. That is why it is applied at least a month ahead, and earlier if it is your first time. The week of the wedding is not the time to try volume.
What should I avoid in the final week?
Anything new: no products your skin doesn’t know, no peels, no facial waxing, no direct sun. And don’t treat a breakout or irritation on your own. The final week is for maintenance, good sleep and hydration. If something comes up, check with us before touching it.
Is it for the groom or other guests too?
Yes. The plan works the same for the groom, mothers, bridesmaids or anyone with an important event. For men, beard or neck laser hair removal and pore treatment are often added. What changes is the order and the time available.
How much does a bridal plan cost in Bogotá?
It depends on what it includes: the Bridal Ritual alone, a series of facials or a plan with injectables and laser hair removal. That is why there is no single price. During the consultation we build the calendar with the full price in writing, stage by stage. Your consultation at iki is free · 45 minutes.
What if I have dark spots or acne close to the wedding?
Dark spots and melasma need months and tend to get worse with aggressive last-minute procedures. Active acne is treated with a medical protocol, not a facial the night before. With little time, the goal is to calm and control the skin, and continue treatment after the wedding.
