Lip Filler After Care

Congratulations! You’ve done it! You’ve gotten your lip fillers. Now its time to take care for your lips!

Lip filler aftercare tip #1: Don’t expect fullness to stay the same.

  • Swelling after your lip filler treatment is completely normal and the size of your lips immediately after treatment is not a true reflection of the final result.

  • Minor swelling can last between a few hours or one to two days.

Lip filler aftercare #2: How to reduce the swelling after lip fillers.

  • Apply ice to treated area

  • Stay hydrated and drink plenty of water.

  • Focus on eating healthy foods like fresh fruits and vegetables. The vitamins and minerals will assist with the healing process.

Lip filler aftercare tip #3: Leave plenty of time for injectables prior to a big event.

  • It’s always best to start a new treatment well before a big event. We recommend that you allow a few weeks for your cosmetic injectable treatment to settle.

What to avoid

  • Avoid strenuous exercise and extreme hot temperatures for 24-48 hours post treatment.

  • Avoid processed foods or fast foods.

  • Heavy activity or exercise for the first two days after treatment

  • Spicy foods

  • Blood-thinning medications, including aspirin and ibuprofen (unless prescribed by your medical practitioner then please continue with these)

  • Smoking and smoke exposure
