The start of a new year is a natural time to reset routines, set intentions, and focus on self-care. When it comes to your skin, meaningful results don’t come from one treatment alone — they come from clear goals, consistency, and a personalized plan.
At Anand Medical Spa in New York City, many patients begin the year by creating a customized skin care strategy designed to maintain healthy, youthful-looking skin all year long.
Why the New Year Is the Best Time to Focus on Skin Health
Winter months can highlight skin concerns such as:
- Loss of volume
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Skin laxity
- Uneven texture or tone
Starting treatments early in the year allows your skin to gradually improve while still looking natural — without rushing before events or holidays.
Step 1: Identify Your Skin Goals
Rather than focusing on “anti-aging,” it helps to define specific goals, such as:
- Softening smile lines and wrinkles
- Restoring facial balance and contour
- Improving jawline definition
- Maintain a smooth skin surface (Botox or Dysport)
- Improve Skin Texture (Microneedling or chemical peels)
A professional consultation helps determine which treatments align with your goals.
Step 2: Choose Treatments That Support Long-Term Results
At Anand Medical Spa, popular treatments patients include in their annual skin plan are:
Dermal Fillers
Used to:
- Restore volume in the cheeks
- Soften smile lines and marionette lines
- Enhance the chin or jawline
- Improve overall facial balance
Botox® / Dysport®
Ideal for maintaining smooth, natural movement while reducing:
- Forehead lines
- Frown lines
- Crow’s feet
- Neck bands
Thread Lift
A non-surgical option to:
- Lift and support sagging skin
- Improve jawline definition
- Enhance facial structure with minimal downtime
Step 3: Think in Phases, Not One-Time Treatments
One of the most effective ways to approach skin care is by planning treatments throughout the year rather than all at once.
Many patients choose to:
- Start with structure (threads or fillers)
- Maintain movement (Botox or Dysport)
- Schedule touch-ups as needed
This phased approach keeps results natural and sustainable.
Step 4: Set Realistic Expectations
Non-surgical treatments are designed to:
- Enhance your natural features
- Refresh your appearance
- Support long-term skin health
They are not meant to drastically change how you look — and that’s what makes the results so appealing.
