Aftercare

Resculpt Aesthetis Anti-Wrinkle Injection (Botox) Aftercare Advice To achieve the best results and minimize side effects, please follow these aftercare instructions carefully: First 4 Hours: ✅ Remain upright – avoid lying down. ✅ Gently move the treated muscles by frowning, raising eyebrows, or smiling to help the Botox settle. ❌ Avoid touching, rubbing, or massaging the treated area to prevent spreading the product. First 24 Hours: ✅ Stay hydrated and eat as normal. ❌ Avoid strenuous exercise, heavy lifting, or bending over excessively. ❌ Do not consume alcohol, as it may increase bruising. ❌ Avoid makeup on the treated area to reduce the risk of infection. ❌ Do not use facials, chemical peels, or harsh skincare products. First 48-72 Hours: ✅ Be patient – results start appearing in 3-5 days, with full effects in 14 days. ❌ Avoid excessive heat (e.g., saunas, hot showers, sunbeds). ❌ Avoid other facial treatments, including massages, microdermabrasion, and laser therapy. Ongoing Care: • Mild bruising, redness, or swelling at injection sites is normal and should subside within a few days. • If you experience headaches, you can take paracetamol (avoid ibuprofen or aspirin as they may worsen bruising). • If any unusual side effects occur (e.g., severe pain, drooping eyelid, difficulty swallowing, or breathing issues), contact your practitioner immediately. Follow-Up & Top-Ups: • Botox results last 3-4 months on average, but this varies by individual. • A top-up appointment (if needed) can be scheduled 2-3 weeks after your initial treatment. • Regular treatments may help prolong effects and prevent deeper lines from forming. For any concerns or further advice, please contact your practitioner.

Resculpt Aesthetics Dermal Filler Aftercare advice Proper aftercare is essential to ensure the best results and minimize side effects. Here’s what you should do after your dermal filler treatment: Immediate Aftercare (First 24-48 Hours) ✅ Reduce Swelling & Bruising • Apply a cold compress or ice pack (wrapped in a cloth) for 10-minute intervals. • Avoid alcohol, caffeine, and salty foods as they can increase swelling. • Use arnica cream or take arnica tablets to help with bruising. ✅ Minimize Discomfort • Mild tenderness is normal—over-the-counter pain relief like paracetamol is fine. • Avoid ibuprofen or aspirin unless advised (these can increase bruising). ✅ Avoid Pressure & Touching • Do not massage, rub, or press the treated area. • Avoid sleeping on your face—try sleeping on your back with an elevated pillow. ✅ Stay Hydrated & Take Care of Your Skin • Drink plenty of water to help your body heal. • Stick to a gentle skincare routine—avoid strong acids, retinol, or exfoliation. Things to Avoid for 48-72 Hours ❌ Exercise & Heat – No strenuous workouts, saunas, hot baths, or sun exposure. ❌ Alcohol & Smoking – Can slow healing and increase bruising. ❌ Makeup – Avoid for at least 12-24 hours to reduce infection risk. Long-Term Aftercare (1-2 Weeks) ✅ Be Patient – Swelling and minor asymmetry will settle within 7-14 days. ✅ Follow-Up Treatments – If needed, wait at least 2 weeks before considering adjustments. ✅ Sun Protection – Use SPF 30+ to maintain results and prevent skin damage. When to Contact Your Practitioner ⚠️ Severe or worsening pain, swelling, or bruising after 72 hours. ⚠️ Lumps, discoloration, or skin turning white/blue (possible vascular occlusion). ⚠️ Signs of infection (redness, warmth, pus, or fever)
