Aftercare

Congratulations on your Botulinum Toxin or filler treatment! Proper aftercare is essential to ensure optimal results and minimize any potential side effects. Here’s what you need to know to care for your skin post-treatment.

After Your Botulinum Toxin Treatment

Immediate Post-Treatment Care

1. Take it easy: Refrain from intense physical activities, including working out, on the day of your treatment.

2. Avoid touching: Do not massage or apply pressure to the treated areas to prevent the spread of the toxin.

3. No makeup: Wait at least 4 hours before applying makeup to the treated areas.

4. Positioning: Avoid bending from the waist or lying down for at least 4 hours to ensure the toxin stays in place.

5. Stay cool: Refrain from wearing hats, goggles, or any headwear that could apply pressure to treated areas.

6. Hands off: Resist touching or massaging your face for at least 4 hours post-treatment.

7. Hydration: Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated, which aids in the recovery process.

8. Patience is key: Results typically appear within 10-14 days, so be patient as the treatment takes effect.

9. Follow-up appointment: Schedule your follow-up appointment to assess your results and discuss any concerns.

10. Reduce bruising: Consider taking oral Arnica tablets or drinking pineapple juice, known for their bruise-reducing properties.

Basic Precautions

1. Sleeping position: Avoid sleeping on or touching the treated areas for the first night.

2. Sun and heat: Steer clear of direct sunlight, hot tubs, saunas, or hot showers immediately after treatment.

3. Alcohol: Skip alcohol consumption for 24 hours post-treatment to minimize the risk of bruising.

Potential Risks and Side Effects

While uncommon, possible side effects may include:

1. Temporary headache, swelling, bruising, or pain around the treated area.

2. Sensation differences such as twitching, itching, or numbness.

3. Asymmetry or temporary drooping of facial features.

4. Dry eyes or double/blurred vision.

5. Rare allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis.

Emergency Response

Seek immediate medical attention if you experience difficulty breathing, speaking, swallowing, or vision problems.

Immediate Post-Treatment Care
