Some of us will receive skinbooster treatment to get the skin in good condition. It is important to follow instructions about skinbooster aftercare.
First of all, after skin booster, the following symptoms may appear, you must always pay attention to these symptoms:
Swelling
Small raised lumps
Bruising
Red needle puncture marks
Asymmetry
Tenderness
Itching in the area
These issues above are common and should resolve over the next few days to weeks.
Immediately after the injections you face will be cleaned. You should not touch your face for 6 hours. After this you may clean your skin with water and a gentle cleanser. It is ideal to avoid makeup on the day of the procedure.
Things to avoid after receiving skinbooster injections
Do not expose the injection area to high temperatures (eg solarium or sauna)
Avoid putting pressure on the treatment area during the first few nights
Avoid strenuous exercise and drinking within 24 hours.
Do not use AHA, retinol/vitamin C therapy or oily cosmetics for 24 hours
Avoid facial treatments, facial waxing, chemical peels, IPL or energy-based treatments, and microdermabrasion within two weeks of treatment. Please consult your doctor before performing other facial treatments during this time.
Swelling relief
Apply a cool compress for 10 minutes every hour on the day of treatment (do not apply ice directly on your skin). A cool compress applied regularly for the first 24 hours after injections may help to reduce the amount of swelling. Some patients use arnica before and after treatment to reduce the swelling.
Bruising relief
Patients on aspirin, fish oil or other drugs associated with increased bruising may find their risk increased. For the treatment of bruising, there are over-the-counter treatments available, including Bruderm and Hirudoid. Avascular laser is also an option for the treatment of bruising. Some patients take Bromelaine as a preventative for bruising.
Massage
Massage of the areas may or may not be advised by your doctor. Gentle massage may be used once the pain and tenderness has resolved and if advised by your doctor. Mostly the small raised areas will resolve without any treatment.
Your Subsequent Treatments
Skinbooster is optimal with 1-3 treatments. Your second treatment can be booked from 4weeks to 4 months after your first. Maintenance of skinbooster should be every 6-12 months.
