In regards to aftercare the best advice we can give is to expect some enlargement immediately after treatment, so best to use an ice pack on the nose. This can help the initial bruising to go down quite quickly.
After the procedure there may be some soreness (from the filler injections) as the effect from the numbing cream wears off. You can manage this with a painkiller, such as paracetamol. We advise against ibuprofen and aspirin.
We recommend lots of rest and no intense exercise, for 48 hours after your treatments. The reduced activity allows the body to heal treated areas quicker.
After 24 hours the bruising and swelling may have mostly subsided. You can still apply a cold compress or ice pack at this stage. Drinking a lot of water also helps.
We always offer a free follow-up appointment here in our Birmingham surgery (generally after two weeks).
