Aftercare
After receiving dermal fillers, it is important to follow certain aftercare instructions to minimize the risk of complications and to ensure the best possible results. Here are some general aftercare tips to keep in mind:
- Avoid touching or rubbing the treated area for at least 24 hours after the procedure. This can increase the risk of infection and may cause the filler to move or become displaced.
- Avoid applying makeup to the treated area for at least 24 hours after the procedure.
- Avoid strenuous exercise or activities that may increase blood flow to the treated area for at least 24 hours after the procedure.
- Avoid drinking alcohol or taking blood-thinning medications (such as aspirin or ibuprofen) for at least 24 hours after the procedure, as these can increase the risk of bleeding or bruising.
- Apply ice to the treated area to reduce swelling and discomfort.
- If you experience any pain or discomfort after the procedure, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen.
- Follow up with your healthcare provider as recommended to ensure that the results are as expected and to address any concerns or issues that may arise.
