Moms, Give Yourself What You Want for the Holidays! (A Photofacial)

Written by: Lee McDonald

December 26, 2025

Let’s get real about Christmas (or Hanukkah or New Year’s), mom is typically the one in the background making the magic happen. Sure, there are some guys who do the work, but let’s get real, its normally the mom.Tattoo removal in Foster City, California

She’s preparing the menu list, decorating the house, and sending out the holiday cards. She’s also handling gift shopping to ensure her loved ones’ Christmas dreams come true. And if this sounds like you, maybe you’d like to see what a few of the hot new holiday toys are.

Moms are also probably used to receiving certain gifts. Like a new robe or fuzzy slippers. But they don’t mind, because the real reward is bright smiles and loving memories. But hey, moms, wouldn’t it be nice to receive something you really want this year? Remember, there’s no shame in gifting yourself! Maybe you’re ready to welcome the New Year with a professional ‘glow up’ via a photo facial. And in between the shopping and gift wrapping, take a few minutes to schedule a consultation in January. Then you have something to look forward to in the New Year, isn’t that nice?

Sun Damage Happens in the Wintertime Too!

Many Bay Area residents enjoy a little vacation time in nearby Lake Tahoe. Yes, for summer but also during the winter. There’s skiing and snowshoeing through white meadows, with views of snow-capped mountains. Who doesn’t love a brilliant, sunny Tahoe winter day? But the sun is just as intense in December and January as it is in July. Almost more due to the sun’s glare on the snow. The Skin Care Cancer Institute has an article about how to prevent skin damage in the winter at high altitudes. Maybe several years of family vacations in Lake Tahoe have contributed to those age spots and fine lines around the face. It’s just another reason to set aside some ‘mom time’ and look at how a photo facial in our office near San Mateo can be a great gift.

A photo facial uses BroadBand Light (BBL), an advanced form of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), targeting pigmented skin and breaking it down into smaller particles that are absorbed by the body. Yes, it’s great for sun damage like age spots and wrinkles. It’s also an effective treatment for broken capillaries. If mom is embarrassed by the spider veins on her legs or face, the BBL treatment can help there, too. After ‘making magic’ for everyone else, Mom deserves a special gift too. And women ready to get what they want can schedule a discussion about a photo facial in Foster City near San Mateo.
