Ten years ago prepping for a walk down the aisle might mean a diet, manicure, and hair-do. But today, brides are turning to medical professionals for help looking picture-perfect on their big day.

When brides-to-be ask the RealSelf doctors for advice on pre-wedding cosmetic procedures, the answers share a similar theme -- plan ahead. Depending on what you want to have done, you may need months to recover before the actual day.

Here’s a look at how far in advance you should schedule popular non-invasive treatments that are perfect for bridal beauty.
