Wedding Nip & Tuck : Care for some Pre-wedding Cosmetic Procedures?

BY The WMG Bride | 22 Sep, 2014 | 5 min read

While we at WMG are not exactly fans of cosmetic procedures (Hey, if he loves you a bit more after a nose job, his nose needs to meet your fist!), we ourselves are quite surprised at how common these are becoming with the usual crowd! Maybe its because many of the 'scary' cosmetic procedures have become non-surgical , minimally invasive, and pretty affordable but right from Band Baaja Bride to your neighbourhood aunty- there are a lot of brides to be taking it a step further to look a million bucks on the big day.

While most brides stop at a fancy facial or maybe laser to get rid of unwanted hair, there are some who take a step further... to fix that gummy smile or maybe to perfect their features... and no, not only with makeup! Of course, all of this is totally a personal decision and if you are in the market for a small, quick fix to perfect your features, we thought we would let you know about a few nips and tucks that have become quite the rage these days. Mind you, most of them can be done a few days or weeks before the wedding keeping just a few precautions in mind...
1. Lip augmentation

Think Priyanka Chopra, not Anushka Sharma! Want pouty lips for your big day? All you need to do is get dermal fillers injected to the upper or lower lip, or both to improve how they look. It's so advanced these days, that all it takes is one sitting and about Rs 10000 to 20,000. Effect lasts for 12 to 15 months!
 2. Veneers

Want that perfect smile? Ceramic veneers could help you with that. They are placed over your existing teeth, giving you a perfect white set of visible teeth. A single ceramic veneer costs approximately Rs 5000- 8000, the total cost depending on the number of teeth you want to get fixed. This procedure doesn't hurt, and can be wrapped up in a matter of days!
3. Dimple creation dimple-creation-surgery2
Always wanted that cute dimple but cursed your luck? Unbelievable, but yes, a doctor can even give you a dimple these days! It involves making a small cut in your inner cheek and removing a little bit of muscle and fat inside. One or two stitches and a week later, you get a dimple on your chosen spot! This may set you back by about Rs 50,000 to 70,000
4. Brow lift

Want to fix that drooping eyelid or want a perfect arched eyebrow? A brow lift could help you get that! It is a 10-minute procedure that involves injecting some Botox around your eyebrow. This costs about Rs 3000 per sitting, which you would need once in 6 months to keep the brow looking the same way. If you want to get this done, make sure it is about 20 days prior to the wedding as you can only pluck or thread brows 15 days after the procedure.
  5. Nose Job NONSURGICALnosejob_beforeafter1
Yes, we know it sounds scary! But gone are the days when even for a minor correction, you had to undergo surgery! These days it is as simple as injecting a filler into the nose, either to elevate or flatten it. It takes about half and hour and between Rs 50,000 to 1 lakh, but you have to keep precautions in mind for the next 2 weeks, so plan it accordingly. This isn't permanent as surgery, so you may have to go for a refill every 18 months.
6. Vampire Face-lift

It sounds fancy, doesn't it? Kim Kardashian made it popular after getting it done on one of the episodes on her 'reality' show !!! (Trust Kim to pull off the crazy!) It involves injecting your own face with YOUR OWN BLOOD. Scary as it may sound, but it is apparently good to stimulate collagen and elastin, basically your anti-ageing jing-jang! It lasts about half an hour and costs about Rs 50,000 to 60,000 for three sessions. You'll be surprised how common it has become in India!
 
7. Nefertiti Neck-lift

You know who Nefertiti is? That Egyptian queen with a long graceful neck, who is on every supposed 'Egyptian' artefact. This particular neck-lift is supposed to make the neck look more youthful without surgery. It stops sagging of the jaw and makes the neckline look more attractive. What it involves is Botox injections near the jawline. To keep it looking the same, this needs to be repeated every 4-5 months and can set you back by about Rs 10000-20,000 each time.
 
Here are some clinics/salons that offer such treatments:
