Hyaluron Pen Before & Aftercare
Before
​
-
Be prepared for a little redness, swelling and/or bruising on your lip/mouth area or facial skin that may occur after the procedure. Different types of skin react differently to the procedure so keep that in mind when making plans for the next couple of hours/days after your treatment.
​
-
Scrub the night/week heading up to your lip procedure. Use a lip/sugar scrub (sugar and coconut oil) to gently exfoliate your lips and keep them hydrated with a balm.
​
-
Consuming alcohol 24 hours before the procedure should be avoided!
​
-
If you previously had a cold sore before, you will need to get an antiviral medication from your doctor.
​
After
​
The more you know about the process the easier it is for you. Basically, the healing process can be divided into 3 stages:
-
healing of the irritation on the surface of the layers of the skin
-
changes in the shape and thickness of skin
-
achieving of the stable new state
During the 2-4 weeks after the procedure, you will experience all these phases. ​
​
-
Be gentle to your lips & keep them hydrated at all times. Every 30 mins check and apply lip balm.
​
-
You can ice the area 10 mins on, 10 mins off for the first 24 hours. This will help reduce bruising and swelling.
​
-
Avoid lipsticks and lip gloss for 7 days. ​
​
-
Avoid spicy foods and using a straw for 7 days.
