Post-Filler Care:
Whether you've just enhanced your lips or other areas, here’s how to care for your fresh look!
Ice Packs: Use ice packs for 5-10 minutes at a time to reduce swelling.
Avoid Facials & Massages: For the next couple of weeks, skip facials and massages to let the filler settle.
Hydration: For lips, keep them hydrated with Vaseline or Aquaphor.
Bruising & Swelling: If you notice bruising, try arnica gel, arnica tablets, or vitamin C. For swelling, non-drowsy antihistamines like Benadryl or Claritin can help, and Tylenol is great for any tenderness.
Activity & Exposure: Avoid intense activities, steam rooms, tanning beds, and direct sun exposure while healing. Keep your treated areas shaded from the sun.
Sleeping: At night, prop your head up with a pillow to avoid pressure on the filled areas.
Grab your ice packs, stock up on arnica, and get ready to flaunt your flawless look—you’re going to look amazing!
Swelling Relief: Use ice on the treated area for a few minutes.
Avoid Treatments: Skip facials and massages for a couple of weeks.
Bruising Help: Apply arnica gel, take arnica tablets, or boost vitamin C.
Pain & Swelling Relief: Take Tylenol; consider non-drowsy antihistamines.
Activity Restrictions: Avoid intense workouts, steam rooms, and sun exposure.
Sleeping Position: Sleep with your head propped up.
Sculptra Massage Instructions
Massage Routine: 5 minutes, 5 times a day for 5 days using a jade roller, massage bar, or clean hands to prevent lumps.
Personalized Plan: After your peel, we’ll provide a tailored plan for your clinic visits and at-home care to ensure optimal healing.
Sun Protection: Your skin will be sensitive, so avoid direct sunlight. If you go outside, wear a hat and sunglasses, and apply plenty of SPF daily.
Normal Redness: Some redness is normal and should subside within a few hours. You can wear makeup right away to showcase your fresh glow!
Product Restrictions: For the next three days, avoid products with AHAs, Retinols, or Vitamin A. Skip exfoliating for a week to allow your skin to recover.
Sensitivity: You may experience increased sensitivity or minor breakouts as your skin clears impurities; this typically resolves with regular treatments.
