01
The first 24 hours
- Stay upright for at least 4 hours. Do not lie flat.
- Do not rub, massage, or press on the treated areas. This can move the product.
- Gently using the muscles in the first hour (raising your brows, frowning, smiling) is fine, and can help.
- Avoid strenuous exercise, saunas, hot yoga, and steam rooms. Keep your heart rate low.
- Skip heavy alcohol, which can increase bruising.
- Sleep on your back tonight if you can, not face down into the pillow.
02
The first two weeks
- No facials, microdermabrasion, facial massage, or laser treatments for at least 2 weeks.
- Results begin to show in about 3 to 5 days, with the full effect at 10 to 14 days.
- If a touch-up may help, it is assessed at about two weeks, not before. The product needs that time to settle.
- Results typically last 3 to 4 months.
03
What is normal
- Mild redness, small bumps, or a pinprick feeling at the injection sites for a few hours.
- A small bruise that fades over several days.
- A mild headache in the first day or two.
- Movement softening gradually rather than all at once.
04
When to call the studio
- Unevenness that is still there after day 14.
- Drooping of an eyelid or eyebrow. This is rare and usually resolves, but we want to know.
- Any new symptom, or anything that feels outside of normal to you.
05 · Emergency
When to call 911 or go to the emergency room
Call 911 first, then the studio, for:
- Difficulty breathing, wheezing, or a tight throat
- Swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat
- Widespread hives, or feeling faint, dizzy, or confused
- Trouble swallowing, speaking, or breathing, or new muscle weakness away from the treated area
- Sudden double vision or a sudden change in vision
