Plan Your Summer Skin: Denver Events & When to Book Aesthetic Treatments
Denver summer is packed with unforgettable events—from concerts at Red Rocks to neighborhood festivals and charitable galas. But if you’re planning to look your best, you’ll want to time your skin treatments just right.
Whether it’s microneedling, Botox, or a chemical peel, recovery time matters—and no one wants to be peeling or puffy during their favorite events. So we’ve created the ultimate guide: Top Denver summer happenings + the skin treatment timelines you need to plan ahead.
Can’t-Miss Summer Events in Denver
Here are just a few of the events that us Denver locals are putting on their calendars this summer.
Red Rocks Summer Concert Series (Ongoing through September)
From The Lumineers to Hozier, the natural acoustics of Red Rocks are unmatched.
These evenings are photo-worthy, so consider scheduling a glow-up facial or neurotoxin treatment at least 7 days before.
Cherry Creek Arts Festival — July 4–6
This 3-day outdoor festival draws crowds from all over Colorado.
Plan your microneedling 10–14 days in advance to give your skin time to heal and glow.
Denver Polo Classic (Charity Event) — July 13–14
Sloan’s Lake Movies in the Park — Fridays in July
Low-key but still social—great for fresh skin.
Plan a light chemical peel or dermaplane 3–5 days before.
How to Plan Your Treatments Around Events
Here’s a quick reference guide so you don’t show up red, swollen, or peeling to your next big thing:
Treatments, Effects, & Downtimes
Botox / Dysport - you may experience mild swelling so best to schedule 7–14 days ahead of time
Dermal Filler - you may experience mild swelling/bruising so plan to schedule your appointments 10–14 days ahead of the event
Microneedling- you may experience redness for 1–3 days so plan to schedule your appointments 7–10 days ahead of the event
Chemical Peel- you may experience flaking for 3–5 days so plan to schedule your appointments 7–10 days ahead of the event
Tip: If you’re unsure, book a consultation and we’ll customize a treatment schedule based on your event calendar!
