Aftercare

  • Immediately after your dermal filler treatment, there may be a slight redness, swelling, tenderness or an itching sensation to the treated area. This is a normal response to the skin as a result of treatment and generally disappears in a few days.
  • Do not rub or touch the treated area until the next morning.
  • Do not consume alcohol or do strenuous exercise or apply makeup for 24 hours after treatment.
  • Do not lie down for the next 6 hours immediately after treatment.
  • Do not apply any pressure to the treated areas for the first few nights (please sleep on your back if possible).​
