After Care

Following your dermal filler treatment, you will feel tender, a little swollen and bruising may be apparent. This is all normal and should subside over the coming days. Below is a list of post-treatment instructions to promote healing.

• Do not rub or touch the treatment areas for at least the next 4 – 6 hours to minimize your risk of infection.

• No strenuous exercise for the next 24 – 48 hours 

• No other facial or aesthetic treatments to the area for a minimum of 2 weeks

• No face down massages for the next 7 days.

• No active skincare (retinoids/vitamin A / AHA’s) products for 24 hours after treatment.

• Do not massage, press or push the areas injected unless otherwise directed by your practitioner.

ADVERSE REACTIONS:

The following symptoms are NOT considered a normal reaction following a dermal filler treatment. If you have any of the below symptoms, notify us immediately so we can organise a review in person.
