At Solstice Med Spa in Castle Rock, we specialize in subtle, confidence-boosting results that fit real life. Think refreshed eyes, smoother skin, brighter tone, and strategic lift—without surgery or lengthy downtime.

Pro tip: If you’re searching “skin care near me” in Castle Rock and feeling overwhelmed by options, this roadmap trims the guesswork. Each treatment listed is available at Solstice and backed by trusted device platforms and product lines.
This window is perfect for treatments that stimulate your skin to improve itself—with visible results that continue to get better as collagen remodels.
Why now: Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency to tighten and remodel skin, improve texture, soften fine lines, and address laxity along the jawline and cheeks. You’ll see early glow in the first couple of weeks, with best results rolling in between weeks 4–12—right on time for holiday photos. InMode notes Morpheus8 is FDA-cleared for soft tissue contraction in fractional RF microneedling, which is exactly why it shines for firming and contouring.
Best for: mild laxity, crepey texture, enlarged pores, early jowling, acne scarring.
Downtime: Typically a few days of pinkness; makeup usually possible after 24–48 hours (follow your provider’s guidance).
Pair it with:
Why now: Opus uses fractional plasma/RF to resurface and smooth with less downtime than traditional ablative lasers while still delivering meaningful improvements in tone and texture. It’s excellent when you want a sleeker, more reflective surface before the big events.
Best for: fine lines, etched-in texture, crepiness around the mouth/eyes, uneven tone.
Downtime: Variable (often 2–5 days of social downtime). Plan it first, then layer brightening or toxin later.
Why now: Hands-free radiofrequency with customizable modes for fat reduction, skin tightening, and muscle toning. A series builds toward smoother lines in fitted holiday outfits—and keeps delivering into the new year.
Best for: abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms when you want a firmer, more toned look without surgery.
At this point, we layer treatments that settle in beautifully by party season.
Why now: Wrinkle relaxers take ~7–14 days to reach peak effect. Book now for smoothed frown lines, forehead lines, and crow’s feet right in time for Thanksgiving and early-December events. Solstice carries all three so we can match the product to your goals and anatomy.
Best for: softening movement lines while keeping expression natural.
Pro move: Add our GlowTox combo (tox + light medical-grade peel) to refine skin texture and help makeup glide.
Why now: A little HA filler in cheeks (support), lips (hydration/definition), or chin/jawline (balance) quietly refreshes proportions so your features read harmonious and camera-ready—without looking “done.” You’ll love our curated Plump & Glow bundles for cheeks or lips, each paired with a SkinMedica® peel for extra radiance.
Downtime: Expect possible swelling or tiny bruises for a few days; plan injections 2–3 weeks before major photos.
Why now: A minimally invasive thread lift for a subtle, instant elevation in the midface with ongoing collagen stimulation. If you’re seeking lift with minimal downtime, this is a smart “wow” treatment before the holidays.
This is the perfect window for polish-and-glow services that deliver quickly.
Why now: Targets brown spots, sun damage, and redness so complexion looks clearer and makeup looks more even. Many patients see a visible jump in brightness within 1–2 weeks. Lumecca is designed to address pigment and vascular concerns; it’s also a powerful partner after tightening treatments.
Downtime: Brown spots often darken and flake over several days—so schedule it at least 10 days before photos.
Why now: Light to moderate chemical peels refresh texture, soften fine lines, and brighten dull areas with minimal downtime. Illuminize is event-friendly; Vitalize and Rejuvenize tackle more stubborn tone/texture with a short peeling phase.
Smart pairings:
Short on time? These options give visible payoff with minimal interruption.
“I’m new to aesthetics—where should I start?”
Book a consult and bring your event dates. Many first-timers love the Photo Finish plan: neuromodulator + light peel for a quick, polished result.
“Will I look ‘done’?”
Our philosophy is subtle, harmonious changes that look like you—rested. Strategic dosing, conservative filler, and skin-quality treatments keep things natural.
“What if I don’t have 6–8 weeks?”
You can still get wins with GlowTox, Illuminize, Upneeq, and targeted toxin. If pigment or redness bothers you, a well-timed Lumecca session 10–14 days prior helps clarity.
“Which treatment is best for lines vs. texture vs. sagging?”
