Anti Wrinkle Before + Aftercare

The importance of being prepared for your treatment.

When undergoing any Del Mar treatment; it is extremely important to familarise yourself with the before and aftercare requirements of each treatment to ensure the best possible results.

Before treatment

To lower your risk of bruising:

  • Avoid exercise for 24 hour prior to treatment.
  • No alcohol, blood thinners, anti-inflammatories (incl. fish oil & vitamin E) for 3-7 days prior.
  • Please ensure you are in good health two weeks prior to treatment.

Aftercare

*IF YOU EXPERIENCE ANY INTENSE PAIN OR AN ABNORMAL REACTIONS PLEASE CONTACT YOUR CLINIC, OR CONTACT FRESH (SEE FRESH AFTERCARE EMAIL) IF IT’S OUTSIDE OUR OPENING HOURS*

Please Do
  • You are welcome to apply makeup after your treatment, but please use a gentle touch to avoid rubbing the area.
  • ​Try to gently exercise your treated muscles for the first 30 minutes after treatment: practice frowning, raising your eyebrows or squinting. This helps to work the product into your muscles. Although this is believed to help, it will not impact your treatment negatively if you forget.
  • Feel free to shower and/or continue with other regular daily activities.
  • Be assured that any tiny bumps or marks will go away within a few hours after your treatment.
Please Avoid
  • Do not rub or massage the treated area for 24 hours after your treatment.
  • Do not do strenuous exercise for 24 hours post-treatment. This will minimize the risk of raising your blood pressure and therefore, increase the risk of bruising.
  • Avoid facials or saunas for 4 hours after your treatment.
  • Do not lie face down (i.e., massage) for 4 hours after treatment. This prevents unnecessary pressure on treated areas.
Results/Expectations & Follow-up
  • Headaches are a common side effect, usually a first time response.
  • Panadol is fine to take but avoid Nurofen or Aspirin.
  • The results of your treatment can take up to 14 days to see the full effect. Usually patients notice a change in 4-5 days. Please wait until the 14 days have passed before assessing your treatment results.
  • Please feel free to come infor a 2 week follow-up assessment after your first treatment. This will ensure we are able to see how your facial muscles react to your treatments. If you require more product to fine-tune / adjust your treatment results, it will be done at this time at an additional per unit cost. Alternatively, product may not be required.
  • Small bruises sometimes occur and should resolve in 3-5 days.
