December is finally here, and with it comes all the sparkle, celebration, and yes, a little bit of holiday chaos! It’s also my birthday month, which makes this time of year feel extra special for me. I’ve been seeing so many clients lately who share the same sentiment: “Michelle, I want to look and feel amazing for the holidays, but I don’t want to look like I’ve done anything.”I completely get it.
Between family photos, office parties, and New Year’s Eve celebrations, this is the time when you want to look refreshed, radiant, and like the best version of yourself. But here’s what I always tell everyone who sits in my chair: the goal isn’t perfection.
It’s confidence.As we close out 2025, I find myself reflecting not only on my own milestones but on all the transformations I’ve witnessed this year from clients who finally tried that treatment they’d been curious about, to those who committed to wellness and skin health, to the quiet confidence shifts that happen when someone sees their reflection and genuinely smiles.
This year has been incredible, and I’m so grateful you’ve trusted me to be part of your journey.
So let’s talk about how to navigate this festive season while giving your skin (and yourself) the care you deserve.
Wrapping Up the Year: My Top Holiday-Ready Treatments
As I look back on 2025, there are a few treatments that truly stand out not just because they deliver beautiful results, but because they help my clients show up for the holidays feeling like their most confident selves.
If you have a big holiday event coming up and want to look refreshed without downtime, wrinkle relaxers are your go-to treatment.
The sweet spot? Plan your appointment at least two weeks before your event. This gives treatments like Daxxify, Dysport, or Xeomin enough time to fully settle and smooth those expression lines, from forehead creases and pesky “11s” to crow’s feet, while keeping your facial movement completely natural.
You’ll still look like you, just the more well-rested, photo-ready version (because let’s be honest, between the shopping, parties, and year-end stress, we could all use a little help looking refreshed.

The Natural Approach: Regenerative Treatments
Clients absolutely love the idea of using their body's own healing power to rejuvenate skin.
Whether we're talking about PRF (made from your own blood), PDGF-based treatments (perfect for clients who prefer not to have blood drawn), or cutting-edge exosome therapy, these all work on the same principle: stimulating your natural collagen production and cell renewal.
PDGF (Platelet-Derived Growth Factor) is one of the proteins your body uses to repair tissue and build collagen. It's what makes treatments like PRF microneedling and EZ Gel so effective. When we combine these growth factors with microneedling, we're creating the perfect environment for your skin to regenerate, repair, and glow from within.
The results are gradual but powerful: improved texture, reduced fine lines, enhanced skin tone, and that natural radiance that comes from genuinely healthy skin, not just surface-level glow.
If you've been curious about regenerative aesthetics, this is a great time to explore your options during a consultation.
The Instant Impact: Strategic Filler
There's something special about strategic filler placement during the holidays. Clients come in with specific goals: "I want my lips to look hydrated for all these photos" or "My under-eyes look hollow and tired."
This is where experience makes all the difference. I'm not just filling areas, I'm restoring balance, enhancing your natural structure, and creating harmony. The goal is always for people to think, "Wow, you look amazing!" not "Did you get work done?"
Perfect areas for holiday enhancement:
Lips: Natural hydration and definition
Cheeks: Subtle lift that photographs beautifully
Under-eyes: Brightening hollows for a more rested appearance
Smile lines: Softening without losing natural expressions
The New Year Prep: LaseMD Ultra for Your 2026 Glow
If you want to walk into 2026 with smooth, bright, refreshed skin, LaseMD Ultra is one of the most effective ways to get there and it’s completely customizable to your timeline.
Unlike deeper lasers or aggressive treatments, LaseMD Ultra can be tailored based on how much downtime you have. Want a light holiday glow? We can keep it gentle. Want a deeper resurfacing to reveal a true transformation? We can do that too.
Timing for a New Year Glow:
Most clients see a visible radiance boost within 5–7 days, with continued improvement over the following weeks as collagen regenerates.
Booking in early-to-mid December ensures you’re bright, smooth, and photo-ready by New Year’s Eve.

Reflecting on a Year of Transformation & Trust
As I sit here wrapping up 2025, I find myself incredibly grateful, not just for the growth of Herasme Beauty, but for the trust you've all placed in me.
What Made 2025 Special
This year, I watched so many of you take that first step—booking the consultation you'd been thinking about for months, trying the treatment you were nervous about, committing to a wellness journey that felt overwhelming at first.
And then I got to witness the transformation that followed. Not just in how you look, but in how you carry yourself.
There's this moment that happens in my treatment room that I absolutely love: when a client looks in the mirror after their treatment and their whole face lights up. Not because they look like someone else, but because they look like themselves again. That refreshed, confident version they'd been missing.
What I've Learned From You
You've taught me that education matters more than sales tactics. The clients who take time to understand their options, ask questions, and make informed decisions? They're always the most satisfied with their results.
And you've reminded me, over and over, that this work is about so much more than aesthetics.
It's about how you show up in your life. How you feel in photos with your kids. How confident you are in that job interview. How present you can be at holiday gatherings when you're not worried about how tired you look.
A Personal Thank You
To every client who walked through my doors this year, whether for the first time or the fiftieth time, thank you for choosing me. Thank you for trusting me with your face, your body, your confidence. Thank you for the referrals, the reviews, the Instagram tags, and the word-of-mouth support that keeps this small business thriving.
To those who've been with me since the beginning: your loyalty means everything.
To those who took a chance on me this year: I hope I've earned your trust.
And to those reading this who haven't yet booked but are curious: I can't wait to meet you in 2026.
Here's to closing out 2025 with gratitude and stepping into 2026 with intention.
With love and appreciation,
Michelle, XOXO
