After Treatment Care for Skin Boosters

1. Immediate Post-Treatment Care

  • Avoid Touching the Treated Area: Refrain from touching, massaging, or applying pressure to the treated areas for at least 24 hours to allow the product to settle.
  • Avoid Heat Exposure: Avoid hot showers, saunas, steam rooms, and direct sun exposure for at least 48 hours to reduce the risk of swelling and irritation.
  • Cold Compresses: Apply a cold compress or ice pack (wrapped in a clean cloth) to the treated areas for 10-15 minutes at a time to help reduce swelling or bruising.

2. Activity Restrictions

  • Avoid Strenuous Activity: Refrain from intense physical activities and workouts that cause sweating for at least 24-48 hours after the treatment.
  • Sun Exposure: Minimize direct sun exposure and always apply sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) when going outdoors to protect the treated area.

3. Skincare Routine

  • Avoid Makeup and Active Skincare Products: Do not apply makeup or use active skincare products (such as retinoids, acids, or exfoliants) on the treated areas for at least 24 hours.
  • Gentle Cleansing: After 24 hours, cleanse the treated area with a mild, non-irritating cleanser. Avoid scrubbing or using hot water.
  • Moisturize: Use a gentle, hydrating moisturizer to soothe the skin and maintain hydration.

4. Follow-up Care

  • Treatment Results: Skin booster results typically develop over the next few days, with improvements in skin texture, hydration, and elasticity becoming more noticeable over time.
  • Additional Sessions: Depending on your skin condition and goals, multiple sessions may be recommended for optimal results. Follow your doctor’s guidance on the treatment plan.

5. Potential Side Effects

  • Mild Swelling or Redness: Swelling, redness, or tenderness in the treated area is normal and should subside within a few days.
  • Bruising: Some patients may experience minor bruising at the injection sites, which usually resolves within a week.

6. When to Contact the Clinic

  • Signs of Infection: If you notice excessive redness, warmth, swelling, or pus at the injection sites, contact your doctor immediately as these may be signs of infection.
  • Prolonged or Severe Side Effects: If you experience any severe or prolonged side effects, such as extreme discomfort or unusual swelling, contact the clinic for further evaluation.
