Heather Merlo, Sei Tu Bella Aesthetics | Medical Spa | Tampa, FL

At Sei Tu Bella Aesthetics, we believe in the spirit of giving—and that includes giving to yourself! During the holiday season, it’s easy to feel guilty about self-care, but with our exclusive promotions, you can give the gift of beauty and wellness to others and enjoy some pampering, too. Medical-grade skincare like ZO Skin Health is perfect for both preventing and reversing skin damage, making it a thoughtful, lasting gift.

Consider the impact of gifting experiences or a gift that improves quality of life rather than just items. Treat a loved one to a rejuvenating medical-grade SaltFacial, a powerful Lumecca Peak IPL treatment to reduce sun damage, or the gift of vaginal.

Rejuvenation with VTONE, FORMA V, or MORPHEUS 8V to a mother struggling with conditions post childbirth or a premature menopausal woman forced to face her new symptoms post-breast cancer. You could even introduce a teenage grandchild to their first skincare experience. These treatments do more than offer immediate results; they foster self-confidence and a sense of empowerment. After all, the best gifts go beyond the tangible—they uplift, restore, and are felt deeply from the heart. This holiday season, give a gift that inspires self-love and radiance.

Dr. Sarah Khan, ARA Med Spa | Medical Spa | Los Angeles, CA

The winter holidays are the perfect time to gift packages of rejuvenating skincare treatments to your friends and family and treat yourself also! I recommend two procedures that can be performed for your face, neck, and hands to achieve the perfect winter holiday glow. As there is downtime with these treatments, schedule them a few days before any upcoming holiday events.

Chemical peels are a topical solution applied to your skin intended to remove the top skin layers. The deeper skin underneath is then revealed, which is plump and youthful and improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles to some degree. There are several types of peels, a superficial peel involves just the removal of the outer layer or epidermis, whereas a medium peel works deeper through the dermis.

Microneedling is a skin rejuvenation procedure that activates the natural skin healing process and can improve the appearance of acne scars and wrinkles. Firstly, microneedles create microchannels in the skin, which increase blood flow and remove toxins. Secondly, microneedling stimulates the production of granulation tissue with collagen proteins, which maintain the integrity of the skin matrix with results lasting up to 4 weeks.

Malik Medical Aesthetics | Medical Spa | New Jersey

As the holiday season approaches, it’s the perfect time to consider giving the gift of beauty and self-care. Here are some top recommendations for health and beauty products and treatments that will leave your loved ones glowing:

1. Botox & Jeuveau: For the gift of smooth, youthful skin, Botox or Jeuveau treatments are a top choice. These neuromodulators help reduce fine lines and wrinkles, giving a refreshed appearance just in time for holiday gatherings.
2. Dermal Fillers: Looking to enhance natural beauty? Dermal fillers are the perfect gift to subtly restore volume to the face, plump lips, or contour cheeks for a youthful and radiant look.
3. Chemical Peels: A chemical peel is the ideal holiday pick-me-up to refresh dull skin. Peels exfoliate and stimulate collagen production, revealing a smoother, brighter complexion—perfect for those ready to show off their glow.
4. HydraFacial MD: Treat someone special to a Hydrafacial MD experience, a luxurious, multi-step facial that deeply cleanses, exfoliates, and hydrates the skin. It’s a non-invasive way to achieve clear, glowing skin with zero downtime.
5. Skincare Products for Home Care: Complement in-office treatments with high-quality, medical-grade skincare products. From retinol for smoother skin to hydrating serums for a glowing complexion, these products can help maintain results at home.

Licensed Medical Esthetician, Celina Requejo, Careaga Plastic Surgery | Medical Spa | Miami, FL

For the holiday season, I recommend two standout skincare products that make thoughtful and effective gifts for anyone prioritizing health and beauty.

SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic is a must-have antioxidant serum suitable for all skin types. This potent vitamin C formula not only combats aging but also enhances skin radiance, providing a natural glow. Its ability to protect against environmental stressors while promoting a brighter complexion makes it an ideal gift for skincare enthusiasts.

For those focused on anti-aging, P-Tiox is an exceptional choice. This wrinkle-modulating peptide serum visibly reduces the appearance of all nine contraction lines, refining skin texture and boosting radiance. It’s a powerhouse product that delivers a smoother, rejuvenated complexion, making it perfect for anyone seeking advanced skincare solutions.

Both products are elegant, results-driven gifts that cater to a wide range of skin concerns, ensuring your loved ones feel pampered and glowing throughout the holiday season.

Victoria A. Cirillo-Hyland, MD, FAAD | Skin | Philadelphia, PA

Be camera-ready this holiday season and gift a Hollywood Spectra Peel to yourself and your family and friends! It brightens uneven skin stones, gently exfoliates the skin, reduces sun damage, helps stimulate dermal collagen, reduces oil production, and softens skin tone and texture. This patented laser toning restores the natural glow and youthful appearance of your skin through gentle heating. The Hollywood Spectra Peel treatment takes approximately 20 minutes with minimal discomfort and no downtime. Foundation application after this treatment is smooth and effortless. Even Santa won’t know your secret!

Dr. Anna Chacon | Skin | Miami, FL

When gifting beauty products for the holiday season, it’s important to choose options that are not skin type-specific. I recommend opting for hydrating products that provide a glowing, dewy look for the winter season that don’t address deeper, more complex skin issues. Masks are a good option since they offer a little self-care with quick benefits and results. For a younger audience, sheet masks would be a fun stocking stuffer, while sleep masks are a great way to go for anyone needing some quick TLC, such as all of the mothers on your list. Opt for clean and simple ingredients to avoid gifting something that could cause irritation and avoid fragrances, as many people are sensitive to stronger scents, and preferences can greatly vary. An alternate idea to gifting a mask is wrapping up a couple of your favorite travel-sized products. Check and see if your favorite products are offered in smaller, travel-sized packaging. A good recommendation for a friend is generally a welcomed one, and what better way to personalize a gift this season than with a glowing recommendation?

Dr. Kiran Gill, Naples Aesthetic Institute | Body | Naples, FL

As a plastic surgeon, I often recommend microneedling as a thoughtful and results-driven gift for those passionate about skincare. Microneedling, a minimally invasive procedure, promotes collagen production to improve skin texture, minimize fine lines, and address concerns such as scarring and hyperpigmentation. It’s an excellent choice for individuals seeking to rejuvenate their skin with clinically proven results.

When gifting a microneedling package, I suggest including a series of treatments (commonly 3–6 sessions for optimal outcomes) at a reputable medical spa equipped with FDA-approved devices. To enhance the experience, consider pairing the package with additional services, such as a hydrating facial or a nutrient-rich serum infusion, which complement the regenerative effects of microneedling.  At Naples Aesthetic Institute, many of our patients purchase microneedling packages every year because they love the results they are achieving.

Providing aftercare is also essential. Including products like a gentle, physician-recommended cleanser, a high-quality hyaluronic acid serum for hydration, and a broad-spectrum SPF can support healing and maximize results. This gift offers the perfect combination of luxury, care, and clinical efficacy—an ideal choice for the holiday season.

Dr. Sam Rizk | Face | Upper East Side

In the skilled hands of NYC’s renowned super-surgeon, the deep plane facelift is more than just surgery—it’s pure magic.

Welcome to the world of luxury plastic surgery, a hidden gem on an unassuming stretch of Park Avenue, where Dr. Sam Rizk, a sculptor-turned-surgeon, reigns supreme. Here, newly lifted patients gaze at reflections they thought they’d lost, their youthful contours restored with the finesse of an artist and the precision of a surgeon. This is where scalpels become wands, time travel feels possible, and confidence—genuine confidence—becomes a power of its own.

Dr. Rizk’s facelifts are meticulously tailored, honoring each patient’s unique cultural and anatomical nuances to deliver hypernatural results that rejuvenate without compromising facial harmony. To complete this bespoke experience, patients may recover in one of three luxury hotels—the Lowell, the Aman, or the Carlyle—ensuring complete pampering and privacy. In just two weeks, they’re ready to return to their lives, camera-ready and refreshed.

An invitation into Rizk’s world is the ultimate gift of the season, a gateway to age-defying artistry and unparalleled refinement.

Dr. Husam Almunajed | Smile | New York, NY

As a dentist, I know flossing isn’t everyone’s favorite part of oral care. Many of my patients share their frustration with traditional floss, and I completely understand—it can be tricky and uncomfortable. That’s why I’m excited to introduce you to a wonderful alternative: the water flosser.

Over the years, water flossers have evolved into an incredibly effective and user-friendly tool for maintaining healthy gums and a fresh smile. Having tried a few myself, I can confidently say they’re an excellent addition to your oral care routine at home. A water flosser uses a gentle stream of water to remove food particles and plaque from between your teeth and along the gumline. It’s simple to use and especially helpful if you struggle with traditional flossing.

What’s more, water flossers offer a soothing experience. Unlike string floss, which can be awkward or harsh, the gentle water flow feels refreshing and leaves your mouth clean and invigorated. With regular use, you’ll notice healthier gums, fresher breath, and a confident smile—perfect for social gatherings, family events, or just everyday life.

If you’re looking to elevate your oral hygiene or want a thoughtful gift for loved ones, a water flosser is a fantastic choice everyone will appreciate!

Dr. Jay Arora | Vision | Scottsdale, AZ

The holidays are a great time for gifts and spoiling the ones you love. And nowadays, with an increased emphasis on overall health, what better way to show those you love how much you care for their well-being than with products that promote healthy habits? For those dealing with dry eyes or eye strain, preservative-free artificial tears or high-quality lubricating eye drops can offer much-needed relief. Warm compress eye masks, particularly those designed for dry eye therapy, are relaxing and effective. Blue light-blocking glasses can also be a valuable gift for individuals who spend long hours on digital devices, helping to reduce eye strain.

For overall eye health, ophthalmologists may recommend omega-3 supplements, as they can support tear production and eye moisture. UV-blocking sunglasses are another stylish yet protective gift idea, shielding the eyes from harmful UV rays. Skincare products designed for the sensitive skin around the eyes, such as hypoallergenic creams or serums, can be appreciated by those interested in beauty and anti-aging.

Lastly, humidifiers make excellent gifts for those with dry eyes, particularly during the winter months. These products not only promote eye comfort but also contribute to skin hydration and overall respiratory health, making them a versatile and thoughtful present.
