PRE CARE
Before attending your appointment for anti-wrinkle injections, it's important to follow some pre-care guidelines to ensure the best results. Firstly, avoid taking blood-thinning medications or supplements like aspirin, ibuprofen, or fish oil for at least a week prior to your appointment, unless medically necessary and cleared by your doctor. Additionally, refrain from consuming alcohol for a few days before your treatment, as it can increase the risk of bruising. To minimise discomfort during the procedure, you may want to avoid caffeine on the day of your appointment. It's also helpful to cleanse your skin thoroughly before arriving, but avoid applying any makeup or skincare products to the treatment area. Lastly, make sure to disclose any medical conditions or medications you're currently taking to your provider, as this can impact the safety and effectiveness of the treatment. Following these pre-care steps can help ensure a smooth and successful anti-wrinkle injection experience
POST CARE
Aftercare following your anti-wrinkle injection treatment is crucial for optimal results and to minimise any potential side effects. Here are some key steps to follow: Avoid touching the treated area: Refrain from touching, rubbing, or applying pressure to the treated area for at least 24 hours after the injection. This helps prevent the spread of the injected substance and ensures it remains in the intended location. Avoid strenuous activities: Steer clear of rigorous exercise, saunas, steam rooms, or activities that may cause excessive sweating for the first 24 hours after treatment. This helps minimise the risk of bruising and swelling. Stay upright: Remain upright for at least four hours after the treatment. Avoid lying down or bending over excessively, as this can also contribute to bruising or migration of the injected substance. Use gentle skincare products: Stick to gentle skincare products and avoid harsh chemicals, exfoliants, or peels for a few days post-treatment. Opt for products specifically formulated for sensitive skin if possible. Apply cold compresses: If you experience swelling or discomfort, you can apply a cold compress to the treated area. Be sure to wrap the cold pack in a cloth to prevent direct contact with the skin. Follow-up appointments: Attend any scheduled follow-up appointments as recommended by your provider. This allows them to assess your results and address any concerns you may have. Be patient: It may take some time to see the full effects of the treatment. Be patient and allow your body to adjust. Avoid over-analysing the treated area immediately after the injection. Avoid excessive sun exposure: Protect your skin from direct sunlight and UV exposure, as this can accelerate the breakdown of the injected substance and contribute to premature ageing. By following these aftercare guidelines, you can help ensure the best possible outcome from your anti-wrinkle injection treatment and minimise any potential complications.
