Hyaluronidase Injection After Care
Immediately after the treatments, you can apply an ice pack, as there may be mild swelling. You should use a cold compress if needed. Avoid any trauma to the skin for up to 2-5 days, such as bathing with very hot water, strenuous exercise, or massage.
Avoid picking or scratching the treated skin to achieve your best results. If any crusting, apply antibiotic cream. You can use an antibiotic ointment for 2-3 days or longer.
Makeup may be used after the treatment has quit swelling unless there is epidermal bleeding. It is recommended to use new makeup to reduce the possibility of infection. Keep the area moist. Any moisturizer without alpha-hydroxy acids will work.
You may shower directly after the procedure in tepid water. The treated area may be washed gently with a mild soap. Skin should be patted dry and NOT rubbed.
You may experience redness and bruising from 1-7 days after the treatment. Use sunscreen SPF 25 or higher at all times when going outside.
Avoid tweezing, waxing, bleaching or laser services at the site of the treatment. Do not use any irritants such as Retin-A, Benzoyl Peroxide or astringents.
