Your Dermal Filler Aftercare Guide: Tips from Tulum Wellness Spa to Enhance & Prolong Your Results

Congratulations on enhancing your natural beauty with dermal fillers at Tulum Wellness Spa! To ensure you enjoy the full benefits of your treatment and maintain your radiant new look, we've prepared this comprehensive aftercare guide. Follow these expert tips to optimize your results and minimize any potential side effects.

Immediately After Treatment:

• Chill Out: Gently apply a cool compress or ice pack to the treated areas for 10-15 minutes at a time, several times throughout the day. This can help reduce swelling and minimize bruising.
• Hands Off: Avoid touching, rubbing, or massaging the injection sites for at least 6 hours. This allows the filler to settle and minimizes the risk of infection.
• Sleep Smart: For the first few nights, sleep on your back with your head slightly elevated. This can help reduce swelling.
• Hydrate:  Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated and promote healing.

For the Next 24-48 Hours:

• Skip the Gym: Avoid strenuous exercise, heavy lifting, or any activity that increases blood flow to your face.
• Avoid Extreme Temperatures: Stay away from saunas, steam rooms, and very hot showers or baths.
• Say No to Alcohol: Alcohol can thin your blood and potentially worsen bruising.
• Makeup with Care:  If you must wear makeup, apply it gently and avoid products that are too heavy or occlusive.

In the First Week:

• Gentle Cleansing: Wash your face with a mild cleanser and lukewarm water. Avoid scrubbing or harsh products.
• Protect Your Skin: Wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher daily, even if it's cloudy.
• Follow Up: Schedule a follow-up appointment with your Tulum Wellness Spa provider to assess your results and address any questions or concerns.

General Tips:

• Be Patient: It can take a few days for swelling to subside and the filler to settle completely. Don't be alarmed if you see some initial unevenness.
• Avoid Pressure:  Avoid sleeping on your face or wearing tight hats or headbands that could put pressure on the treated areas.
• Sun Protection:  Protect your skin from the sun's harmful rays with a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses, in addition to sunscreen.

When to Seek Medical Attention:

While rare, complications can occur. Contact your doctor immediately if you experience:

• Severe pain or swelling
• Signs of infection (redness, warmth, pus)
• Vision changes or blurred vision
