Before your appointment:

• Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin to facilitate a proper assessment.

• Avoid NSAIDs (e.g., Ibuprofen, Advil), fish oil, Gingko Biloba, St. John’s Wort, and high doses of Vitamin E for one week before treatment, as these can increase the risk of bruising.

• Avoid Retin-A, Tretinoin, and other retinoids for three days prior to the procedure.

• Refrain from drinking alcohol for 24 hours before the injection to minimize the risk of bruising.

• If you are prone to bruising, consider taking Arnica tablets one day before treatment, but consult your healthcare provider before starting any supplements.

• Avoid dental appointments two weeks before and after treatment to reduce the risk of complications.

• Clients who are pregnant or nursing are not eligible for dermal filler treatments.

Dermal fillers usually require minimal downtime, but this can vary from person to person. Common side effects include redness, bruising, swelling, tenderness, or itching around the injection sites, which typically resolve within a few days. To allow time for healing, it’s advisable to avoid scheduling important events for a few days post-treatment.

• Avoid applying makeup immediately after treatment to reduce the risk of infection.

• Avoid lying down for at least four hours post-procedure to help prevent filler migration.

• Sleep on your back for 24-48 hours following the procedure to maintain filler placement.

• Avoid touching your face for 24 hours unless applying topicals as advised by your practitioner.

• Refrain from strenuous exercise for 24 hours; light walking is generally acceptable.

• Avoid exposure to extreme heat or cold for 24 hours, as this may affect the filler.

• No facials or massages on treated areas for two weeks post-treatment to avoid disturbing the filler.

• For lip injections only: avoid using straws, smoking, heavy kissing, or oral activities for two weeks to ensure optimal results.

To prepare for the procedure, avoid blood-thinning medications (such as aspirin or ibuprofen), alcohol, and smoking for at least 48 hours prior to your session to minimize bruising. Your provider may also recommend discontinuing certain supplements that can increase the risk of bruising.

Downtime is minimal with biostimulators. You may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising, but these effects typically subside within a few days. Most patients can resume normal activities immediately after the procedure.

After treatment, avoid direct sun exposure, strenuous exercise, saunas, and hot baths for 24–48 hours. It’s also advisable to avoid alcohol and supplements that may increase bruising. Follow your provider’s aftercare instructions closely.

Before your microneedling appointment, it’s essential to inform your medical provider about any medications, supplements, or skin conditions you have.

  Skin Care Tips:

  • Use a gentle, non-irritating cleanser.

  Sun Exposure:

  • Avoid direct sunlight for at least one week post-treatment.

  • Continue using SPF 30+ daily to protect healing skin and prevent post-treatment pigmentation.

  Frequency of Chemical Peels:

  • Light peels may be done every 4 to 6 weeks.

  • Deeper peels require longer recovery and more time between sessions.

  • Your provider will advise on a schedule suited to your skin type and goals.

No special preparation. Arrive with clean skin and let your nurse know about any medications or supplements.

Nothing meaningful. Skin may look flushed for an hour or two, similar to a post-workout glow, and can feel tight until you moisturize. Makeup can go back on the same day, though most people enjoy the bare-skin feeling for a few hours first.

Freshly resurfaced skin is more vulnerable to UV, so broad-spectrum SPF matters for the following week. Skip retinoids, acids, and physical scrubs for about 48 hours, and keep skin well moisturized. Mild dryness or light flaking in the days after is normal and settles on its own.

No special preparation. Arrive with clean skin and let your nurse know about any medications or supplements.

Most individuals can resume their normal activities, including work, exercise, and social engagements, immediately after an IV Hydration Therapy session. However, individual experiences may vary, so it’s advisable to discuss any concerns with your practitioner during your consultation.

Before receiving vitamin injection therapy, consult with medical practitioners to discuss your health history and nutritional needs. Staying hydrated and eating a balanced meal before the session is recommended.

Your nurse will walk you through aftercare at the end of your visit.
