Juvéderm Filler Treatment Considerations

After injection, patients may experience redness, bruising, swelling or other local side effects. Most side effects of treatment resolve within a few days.

To Reduce the Chance of Bruising, Avoid the Following

• Aspirin
• Pain Relievers (Tylenol okay)
• Coumadin (get primary physician approval first)
• Fish oil
• Glucosamine
• Ginkgo Biloba
• Vitamin E
• Exotic or Herbal Supplements

Have water and a little something to eat before arriving. We suggest you not eat right after treatments around the mouth - letting the product "settle" a few hours will give you the best results.

After The Treatment

• Note: no alcohol for 24 hours after treatment
• No increased blood pressure (i.e. sauna, hot tub, exercise, cardio) for 4 hours post treatment (Helps prevent bruising)
• It is recommended that make up not be applied until 1 hour after treatment to allow the skin to breathe
• Avoid excessive facial expressions and strenuous exercise for 4 hours after your treatment (This helps the product to "settle" without disturbing the location where it was injected)
• Do not rub or massage the area for 24 hours unless instructed to do so. Redness and swelling may last for 1-2 days
• There is a risk of bruising which is only temporary and can be covered up with make-up
