Cosmetic enhancements are becoming more popular because they are a non-invasive procedure that is almost painless and can be done in a really short time with fantastic results. Moreover, the recovery time after treatment is also very brief compared to that after cosmetic surgery. Although the fat dissolving procedure is non-invasive and requires no bed rest that does not mean that aftercare is not required. In this blog we will give some aftercare tips and precautions that are necessary after you have undergone a filler session so that you get the best results. Tips to Ensure Treatment Success 1. Avoid Strenuous Activity After Injection Treatment To maximize the effectiveness of the filler injection, it is recommended that the patient refrain from performing any strenuous activity. This includes weightlifting, jumping or jogging, and running. You may feel well enough to do these activities and feel perfectly fine but that does not mean you should. Excessive movement will only interfere with the results and can also cause injury. 2. Apply Ice to the Area After the injection is administered you will have some swelling around the area. To remedy that and provide some relief apply an ice pack to the skin for an interval of 15 to 20 minutes. For the best results repeat this for a few times per day. With time the swelling will reduce. 3. Use a Painkiller Giller procedure is relatively painless and in many cases the patient do feel any pain after the procedure. However in some cases there is soreness felt at the area of the injection. If you feel this than it better to take a painkiller to stay on the safe side. Eating a painkiller tablet will rapidly reduce inflammation and you will feel much more at ease. 4. Avoid Alcohol If you are thinking that a glass of alcohol will soothe you after treatment than you are mistaken since drinking alcohol will only reduce the effectiveness of the fat dissolving injection. Refrain from drinking any type of alcohol whether it is wine, beer or liquor. 5. Hydration is a Must Keeping the body hydrated is crucial and an important aftercare remedy. Drinking a lot of water flushes out toxins from the body and hydration would also lessen the swelling around the injection area. The more you drink the more faster will be the recovery. Drinking 2 litres per day for two weeks is the right strategy. Staying hydrated is a healthy practice for even a normal person so there is no harm in drinking excessive water at all. 6. Keep Alert for any Allergic Symptoms. Fat dissolving injection can cause an allergic reaction in some people but it is relatively rare. The obvious signs of an allergic reaction are redness, swelling of the area where injection was done and an itchy feeling. Hives can also break out and if any of the symptoms occur promptly contact the professional that did the procedure for advice since this is a situation which cannot be resolved by taking action by yourself. 7. Do not Take a Hot Bath If you feel the pain or swelling from the injection than the worst thing you can do is to take a hot bath. This will only increase the pain. Put off all plans of going to a sauna or relaxing in the hot tub for a week. 8. Refrain from Massage Doing massage of the affected area is also something that is to be avoided. Applying pressure to the skin area where the injection was done will disrupt the treatment process and reduce effectiveness of the fat dissolution. 9. Don’t Do Any Skin Treatments Skin treatment of any kind should be avoided since it will aggravate the injection skin area and cause inflammation since most skin treatment use acids or acidic formulas to cleanse the skin. 10. Don’t Apply Cosmetics No mater how visually unpleasant the swollen or bruised area seems, avoid putting makeup products to conceal it. For speedy recovery the skin needs to breathe and cosmetics cover up the pores of the skin. So, to ensure full recovery avoid applying makeup for a full day. Visible Results: How Long Does it Take? Once the fat dissolving injection is administered you body will require some time to remove the fat cells. During the first couple of days you will have swelling and tenderness. In the coming 4 weeks the swollen area will start to become smoother and by week 8 you will see a noticeable difference as all the fat is removed. Conclusion No matter if it’s your first fat dissolving injection treatment or your tenth, following the fat dissolving injection aftercare is very important. Following these aftercare instructions for fat-dissolving injections is the best way to care for your result and reduce the chance of side effects. While these aftercare steps may seem minor and trivial, not following them may compromise your results.
