Aftercare Instructions

IN THE FIRST 3 DAYS AFTER THE PROCEDURE:

◙ Try to hold on from eating hot and spicy food. Since the effect of high temperature will provoke an increase in post-procedural edema
◙ Exclude hot drinks (coffee, tea)
◙ Exclude alcoholic beverages
◙ Don't put makeup on your lips for 1 day
◙ On the day 5 perform strong massage on the lips in the way you were shown
◙ No saunas, hot baths, sunbathing, solarium 2 weeks after the procedure
◙ To help alleviate swelling, an antihistamine is recommended during the day, such as Zyrtec or Claritin, and Benadryl at night
◙ To help alleviate bruising, is recommend to take Arnica or Bromelain, eating fresh pineapple, and applying ice to the area


The presence of asymmetry is possible due to swelling

Healing process is 3-4 weeks

If this is your first lip augmentation ever the effect after healing will be minimal. 60-70% of the filler will be absorbed. Touch up is recommended after 1-2 months

You may feel "firmness". It can be felt within a month. After 1+ months it becomes softer and settles with time

If herpes (cold sore) appears after the procedure, take anti-herpes medication
