Every patient will receive specific aftercare instructions from their providers. However, in most situations, we recommend abstaining from certain activities, such as sun exposure, for a full 2 weeks following treatment. For seven days following treatment, patients should expect some temporary redness, swelling and bruising at the injection site, including some minor tenderness. We advise that patients avoid NSAID painkillers, as these can increase bruising and bleeding. After seven days, swelling should subside. During a follow-up appointment, we will then examine the results and ensure the treatment was effective. As every patient is different, individual results vary, with some patients requiring a follow-up treatment to improve results.
