Immediately after treatment, there may be slight redness, swelling, tenderness and an itching sensation in the treated area. This is a normal result of the injection. The inconvenience is temporary and generally disappears in a day or two.<\/p>\n
Apply an ice pack to the treated area, this will reduce the initial swelling.<\/p>\n
If you are having lip treatment the initial swelling may last longer. It can last for about a week and the lips may look somewhat uneven during this time, therefore, the result directly after the treatment should not be seen as the final result.<\/p>\n
Avoid touching the treated area within 6 hours following treatment. After that, light makeup can be applied and the area can be gently washed with soap and water.<\/p>\n
Until the initial swelling and redness have resolved, do not expose the treated area to intense heat eg Solarium and Sunbathing or extreme cold.<\/p>\n
If you have previously suffered from facial cold sores, there is a risk that the injections could contribute to another eruption of cold sores.<\/p>\n
If you are using asprin or any similar medication, be aware that these may increase the risk of bruising or bleeding at the injection site.<\/p>\n
Since the dermal filler is absorbed , the correction effect reduces over time. Many patients choose to be treated again within 6 months of the original treatment.<\/p>\n
