Post Treatment Care

DERMAL FILLERS:

  • Avoid touching any treated areas for at least 6 hours. Then the areas can be washed gently with soap and water and light make-up can be applied. If the area is tender, apply some ice covered in cloth to the treatment site.
  • Do not engage in any strenuous exercise right after the treatment.
  • Avoid the heat (hot baths, showers) for 24 hours after the treatment.
  • Avoid prolonged sun exposure for at least 48 hours after treatment as this could reduce the persistence of the product.
  • Do not apply any creams which contain alpha hydroxy acids.
  • Clients who have had cold sores in the past should note that there is always a risk that injecting any product around the lips may cause the cold sores to flare up.
  • Clients taking aspirin or anti-inflammatory medication should be aware that this could increase bleeding and bruising at the sites of injection.
  • Avoid long-distance flying for 24hrs
  • Avoid dental treatment for 24hrs

MUSCLE RELAXATION TREATMENT:


Try to exercise your treated muscles for the 4 hours hour after your muscle relaxation treatment (this will work the injection into your muscles).

  • Do not lie down for 4 hours after treatment.
  • Keep your head upright if picking anything up from the floor.
  • Do not drink alcohol, eat spicy foods, or exercise for 4 hours.
  • Do not rub the treated area or have a facial for at least 24 hours.
  • Do not apply makeup for at least 24 hours.
  • Take Paracetamol as needed.

Do not take – (either before or after treatment for 24 hours) Aspirin, Ibuprofen, Nurofen, or other anti-inflammatories as this may increase any bruising. There is a risk of bruising. If this does occur, it will only be temporary and can be covered with makeup after 24 hours.

Please note that it can take up to 2 weeks for the treated area to fully settle and to see your true results.
If you have had an anti-wrinkle treatment, please note top-up (if required) has to be carried out a maximum of 2 weeks following your initial treatment.
