Botox & Filler Post-Treatment Care Guide

General Instructions:

  • Avoid Pressure: Do not massage, rub, or apply pressure to the treated area for 6 hours post-treatment.
  • Medication Caution: Steer clear of aspirin, ibuprofen, and alcohol for several days following the treatment.
  • Exercise: Refrain from physical activities for 24 hours.
  • Arnica Montana Cream: Apply this topically to any red, bruised, or swollen areas.
  • Sun and Cold Exposure: Avoid until any redness from the treatment subsides.
  • Skin Products: Pause Retinol or Retin-A usage for two days.

Specific to Botox:

  • Posture: Stay upright for at least 4 hours post-treatment.
  • Sensations: Tingling sensations may occur.
  • Headaches: Immediate headaches, especially after the first treatment, are common.
  • Effect Timeline: Full effect appears in 2-14 days and lasts 3-4 months.
  • Makeup: Safe to reapply post-treatment.

Specific to Fillers:

  • Facial Movements: Avoid kissing, puckering, and using straws or lip plumpers to prevent filler displacement.
  • Ice Application: Apply lightly to reduce swelling. Use 10-20 minutes on and 10-20 minutes off throughout the day.
  • Bruising Management: Mild to moderate bruising is typical. Use Arnica Montana topically or orally for bruising and swelling.
  • Hydration: Stay hydrated to enhance results, as filler binds to water in the skin.
  • Facial Treatments: Avoid facials, peels, microdermabrasion, dental treatments, and face-down massages for two weeks. Sleep on your back for a few nights.
  • Makeup and Skincare: If possible, avoid makeup for today. Gentle cleansing and moisturizing are recommended.

Note: The effect of fillers is immediate, with full results visible in 7 days.
