FILLER AFTER CARE
Post Care
- Apply a cold compress intermittently (10–15 minutes at a time) for the first several hours to reduce swelling and bruising
- Avoid touching, pressing, or massaging the treated area for 24–48 hours unless instructed otherwise
- Avoid strenuous exercise, heavy sweating, and heat exposure (saunas, hot tubs, hot yoga) for 24–48 hours
- Avoid alcohol for 24 hours

- Avoid dental work or other facial treatments for 2 weeks
- Acetaminophen may be used if needed; avoid NSAIDs if bruising is a concern unless otherwise directed; arnica may help with bruising
What to Expect
- Swelling, bruising, redness, and tenderness are common and generally resolve within several days to 2 weeks
- Swelling often peaks during the first 24–72 hours — especially in the lips — before gradually improving
- Firmness or small lumps may be felt initially and usually soften and settle over about 2 weeks
- Final results are typically seen at about 2 weeks once swelling resolves

HYALURONIDASE AFTER CARE
Filler Dissolving
Post Care
- Apply a cold compress intermittently (10–15 minutes at a time) for the first several hours to reduce swelling and bruising
- Avoid touching, pressing, or massaging the treated area for 24–48 hours unless instructed otherwise
- Avoid strenuous exercise, heavy sweating, and heat exposure (saunas, hot tubs, hot yoga) for 24–48 hours
- Avoid alcohol for 24 hours
- Sleep with your head slightly elevated the first 1–2 nights
- Acetaminophen may be used if needed; avoid NSAIDs if bruising is a concern unless otherwise directed; arnica may help with bruising
- Wait until swelling has fully settled before judging the result — often about 2 weeks for elective treatment
- If you choose to replace dissolved filler, this is a separate treatment typically performed after swelling has resolved and the final result can be accurately assessed (often about 2 weeks for elective treatment)
What to Expect
- Softening often begins within hours, but improvement may continue over several days; more than one treatment is sometimes needed for firmer or larger amounts of filler
- Swelling, redness, tenderness, and bruising are common at first — the lips and under-eye area tend to swell and bruise more
- The treated area may temporarily look flatter, softer, or more hollow than expected; this often improves as swelling resolves and your body’s natural hyaluronic acid is replenished over time
- Some filler may remain after treatment, and more than one treatment may be needed; nearby filler you wished to keep can also be partly affected
- Temporary numbness or tingling near the treated area can occur
- If hyaluronidase was given as emergency treatment for a blocked blood vessel, your provider may ask you to return sooner or more than once for repeat evaluation and treatment
CALL OUR OFFICE IMMEDIATELY

SCULPTRA AFTER CARE
Post Care
- Massage the treated areas using the “5-5-5” rule: 5 minutes, 5 times per day, for 5 days
- Apply a cold compress intermittently for the first 24 hours to reduce swelling
- Avoid strenuous exercise, heavy sweating, and heat exposure (saunas, hot tubs, hot yoga) for 24 hours
- Avoid direct sun for 48–72 hours
- Acetaminophen may be used if needed; avoid NSAIDs if bruising is a concern unless otherwise directed
What to Expect
- Immediate swelling is common and usually subsides within a few days, at which point the treated area may look close to its pre-treatment appearance — this is expected as the initial volume is largely from the injection fluid
- Bruising and tenderness at injection sites can occur and resolve within several days
- Correction develops gradually as your own collagen rebuilds — over weeks to months
- A series of treatment sessions is typically recommended for full results
- Results build over time and can last up to about 2 years; individual results vary
