FAQs

 

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT AFTER TREATMENT?

WITH BOTOX & FILLERS:

Bruising varies between patients. Usually minimum bruising occurs and resolves within 2-3 days. On occasion, bruising may be more significant and last up to 7-10 days.

It is normal to feel “firmness” in the injection area (s) for the first few days after treatment. Over time, the area will soften, leaving you with a natural looking result.

 

WHAT ARE THE POST-TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS?

FILLERS

  • Avoid significant movement or massage of the treated area. Unless instructed by the provider.

  • Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours.

  • Avoid extensive sun or heat for 72 hours.

  • Avoid consuming excess amounts of alcohol or salts to avoid excess swelling.

  • If you experience swelling you may apply a cool compress for 15 minutes each hour.

  • Use Tylenol (Acetaminophen) for discomfort.

  • Try to sleep face up and slightly elevated if you experience swelling

BOTOX

  • Do NOT manipulate the treated area for 3 hours following treatment.

  • Do NOT receive facial/ laser treatments or microdermabrasion after Botox injections for at least 10 days.

  • Do NOT lie down for 4 hours after your Botox treatment.

    (This will prevent the Botox from tracking into the orbit of your eye and causing drooping eyelid.)

  • It can take approximately 4 to 7 days for results to be seen.

  • Do NOT perform activities involving straining, heavy lifting, or vigorous exercise for 6 hours after treatment.
