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.
