The following are some important things to consider before coming in for your appointment:
Avoid alcoholic beverages at least 48 hours prior to treatment:
Alcohol has blood-thinning properties that can increase the risk of bruising during and after your filler treatment. To minimize this risk, it is advisable to abstain from consuming alcoholic beverages for at least 48 hours before your appointment.
Elective anti-inflammatory/blood thinning medications and supplements:
If possible, it is recommended to avoid elective anti-inflammatory medications such as aspirin, ibuprofen, and certain herbal supplements for two weeks prior to your Juvederm filler treatment. These substances can thin the blood and increase the likelihood of bruising or bleeding at the injection sites. However, it is essential to consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medication regimen.
Schedule your filler treatments in advance of special events or occasions:
If you have an important event or special occasion coming up, it is advisable to schedule your Juvederm filler treatments at least two weeks prior to the event date. This allows ample time for any potential swelling, bruising, or redness to subside, ensuring that you look and feel your best on the day of the event.
Hydrate thoroughly before your appointment:
Prior to your Juvederm filler treatment, it is crucial to hydrate your skin by drinking plenty of water. Hydrated skin tends to yield better results as it provides a smooth canvas for the filler to be evenly distributed and integrated. Aim to hydrate your body from within by drinking an adequate amount of water in the days leading up to your appointment.
Please try to arrive at your appointment without wearing makeup if possible. If you are unable to do so, we kindly request that you remove your makeup upon arrival at our facility.
During the treatment, we will take measures to ensure your comfort by applying ice and a topical numbing cream. These steps help minimize any potential discomfort you may experience.
It's important to note that you will see immediate results following the treatment. However, temporary bruising and swelling are normal reactions that may occur. Rest assured, these effects will subside over time, revealing the beautiful results you desire.
We are committed to providing a safe and comfortable experience, and our team will be on hand to address any questions or concerns you may have before, during, and after your treatment.
To ensure the best results and minimize any potential complications, please follow these post-treatment guidelines:
Avoid wearing makeup for the remainder of the day:
It is recommended to refrain from applying makeup to the treated area for the rest of the day following your filler treatment. This allows the skin to heal and reduces the risk of introducing any irritants or contaminants to the injection sites.
Do not massage or manipulate the treated area for at least 4 hours:
Unless specifically instructed otherwise by your provider, it is important to avoid touching, massaging, or manipulating the treated area for at least 4 hours after your filler treatment. This precaution helps to ensure the proper distribution and integration of the filler within the targeted areas.
Avoid strenuous exercise or heavy lifting for 24 hours:
To minimize the risk of excessive swelling or potential movement of the filler, it is advised to refrain from engaging in strenuous exercise or heavy lifting for 24 hours after your treatment. This allows the filler to settle properly and promotes optimal results.
Minimize sun or heat exposure for 72 hours:
Extended sun or heat exposure can increase the risk of inflammation and potential complications. It is important to avoid direct sun exposure, tanning beds, saunas, hot tubs, or any other activities that generate excessive heat for at least 72 hours following your treatment.
Delay laser, chemical peel, microneedling, or microdermabrasion treatments:
For a period of at least 10 days following your filler injections, it is recommended to avoid receiving laser treatments, chemical peels, microneedling, or microdermabrasion. These procedures can potentially disrupt or affect the filler's placement or integrity. If you have any doubts or questions about the appropriate timing of such treatments, please consult your provider for guidance.
