After your treatment

Botox & Filler Aftercare

Caring for the treated area in the first day or two helps your results settle in beautifully. This is general guidance; please follow the specific aftercare instructions your provider gives you.

The first few hours

  • Stay upright for a few hours after your appointment and avoid lying flat.
  • Leave the treated area alone; do not rub, press, or massage it unless your provider tells you to.
  • Skip makeup on the area for the rest of the day if your provider recommends it.
  • A little redness, swelling, or minor bruising at injection points is common and usually fades quickly.

The first day or two

  • Avoid heavy exercise, saunas, and very hot environments for about 24 hours.
  • Try to sleep on your back the first night to avoid pressure on the area.
  • Use a cool compress gently if you have minor swelling, without pressing hard on the area.
  • Be patient with neuromodulators like Botox and Dysport; full results can take up to about two weeks.

Do

  • Stay upright for a few hours after treatment.
  • Use a cool compress gently if you have minor swelling.
  • Give your results up to two weeks to fully appear before judging them.
  • Call us at 727-569-6616 if you have any concerns, and follow your provider's specific aftercare instructions.

Don’t

  • Do not rub, massage, or apply firm pressure to the treated area.
  • Do not do heavy workouts, saunas, or hot yoga for about 24 hours.
  • Do not lie face down or get a facial massage in the first day after treatment.

This is general guidance. Always follow the specific pre- and post-treatment instructions your UDERMA provider gives you for your treatment and skin.
