Aftercare Advice

Please read carefully.

 

The goal of aftercare is to encourage optimal treatment results. It can also minimize the risk of bruising and spreading to other areas. Follow the aftercare advice provided for optimal results.

 

  • Don’t touch your skin. Take a break from makeup for 24 hours and don't touch your face. Applying makeup will rub the skin, potentially dispersing the toxin. If you got Botulinum Toxin in another part of your body, you should also avoid touching those areas. This includes professional massages on the treated areas. It’s best to schedule your next massage several days later. 
  • Wait 24 hours to exercise. If exercise is part of your daily routine, wait at least 24 hours to work out. Physical activity increases blood flow. This could potentially spread the toxin to unintended areas and reduce its effectiveness at the injection site. It also increases the risk of bruising. Exercise also contracts your muscles, which may decrease the toxin’s effectiveness.
  • Sit up. Sit up for the first 4 hours after getting Botulinum Toxin. Bending or lying down might spread the toxin and promote bruising.
  • Medication. Some medications might increase your risk of bruising. Be sure to ask your practitioner when it’s safe to start taking them again. Avoid aspirin and ibuprofen for a few days following treatment. Do not restart Retinol or Retin-A for 2 days.
  • Don’t drink alcohol. Alcohol increases the risk of bruising. Wait at least 48 hours after your treatment before consuming alcohol.
  • Don't massage, rub or apply pressure to the treated area.
  • Don’t sleep on the treated areas. Try your best to avoid sleeping on the injected areas. This will minimize the physical pressure and let the Botulinum Toxin settle into your muscles. Also, avoid sleeping within 4 hours after your procedure.
  • Stay out of the sun. Avoid sun exposure for at least 48 hours. The heat can promote flushing and increase your blood pressure, which may encourage bruising.
  • Avoid heat exposure. It’s also best to avoid other forms of heat exposure, such as: Tanning bed, Hot tubs, Hot showers or baths and Saunas.
  • Apply ice. You can apply a pack of ice for relief. The bruising should go away in about 2 weeks.
  • Apply topical cream. You can apply Arnica cream to any areas with redness, bruising or swelling.
  • Avoid waxing and use of chemical depilatories for 1 week following treatment.
  • Wait before having more Aesthetic treatments. Avoid facials, chemical peels, micro-dermabrasion for 2 weeks following treatment. Radio frequency miconeedling must be avoided for 4 weeks.
