3 Ways To Prepare For Your 30-Year High School Reunion

Blog

If you're like most people with their 30-year high school reunion coming up in the relatively near future, you're probably experiencing a combination of anticipation, curiosity, and anxiety. You're anticipating having a good time getting caught up with old friends and classmates, you're curious to find out what they've done with their lives, and you're anxious because you want to make the best possible impression and are afraid you might come up short in that regard.  Even though it seems shallow, human beings seem to have a natural desire to put their best foot forward, and reunions and other events revolving around high school bring up old insecurities. You've probably already planned on visiting your favorite hair salon before the reunion as well as purchasing some nice new clothing to wear to the event. After all, getting ready should be part of the fun. However, if you really want to make a splash at your high school reunion, there are procedures that let you go above and beyond the usual preparations.

Following are just three of the ways that you can ensure that you make a stunning entrance when you walk into the room to greet your old classmates.

Have Your Teeth Whitened 

A simple teeth whitening procedure lights up anyone's face, and it can be performed a day or so before the reunion for maximum impact. If your teeth have become stained or otherwise discolored over the years, you may be finding yourself reluctant to smile. This also might be a good time to address any other minor cosmetic dental issues you may have. If you've got a chipped tooth or two, it may be time to talk with your dental health professional about having crowns installed. 

Have Your Eyebrows Lifted 

Eyebrows frame the face and provide balance and finish. You're probably familiar with the ways that eyebrows that are too thin, too thick, or lacking the proper arch. The most attractive eyebrows are neat and well groomed, with an arch that reaches its height in line with the pupil of the eye. As we age, this sometimes shifts just a bit, but this can easily be remedied by a simple Botox treatment. This procedure helps open up the eyes as well as minimizes frown lines. 

Choose a technician to perform the procedure who uses computer imaging to allow you to get an accurate picture of how it will look when it's finished. This takes less than an hour and there's no recovery time, but most people don't start seeing results until about a week later, and significant results often aren't noted until about a month has gone by, so it's best to schedule the treatment for a little over a month before the reunion is scheduled to take place. 

Have CoolScultping Performed

CoolScultping is relatively new on the cosmetic procedure scene. Otherwise known as cryolipolysis, CoolSculpting provides noninvasive body contouring that works by destroying fat cells by freezing them. As the cells break down, they're flushed from the body by the liver. CoolSculpting is deemed by professionals to be a safer alternative than surgical body contouring procedures such as liposuction. Most people don't require any recovery time at all after having this procedure performed. It's best for situations where you need to lose some fat from specific areas such as the thighs or abdomen. Because the fat cells are literally destroyed, there is little chance of the fat coming back at a later date. Although some people experience minor side effects such as diarrhea as the fat cells are flushed from body tissues and itching in the affected area. 

CoolSculpting can help give you a svelte appearance that will help you look fabulous in that new dress you'll be wearing to your reunion.
