Skin Boosters are a hugely popular skin treatment with its main benefit restoring your skin’s health through an added powerboost of HA & Amino Acids. Understanding the skin booster aftercare routine is hugely important to enjoy longer-lasting effects of the treatment.

​

• After treatment there may be slight redness, swelling and tenderness, also an itchiness sensation in the treated area. This is a normal result of the product/injection – the inconvenience is temporary and generally disappears in a day or two.

​

• Some people experience small lumps after the procedure, this is totally normal and is actually a sign of successfully placed treatment.  Do no touch these lumps allow them to settle by themselves.

​

• Bruising is also common after any injections. Arnica gel/cream can help bruises heal more quickly.

​

• Apply an ice pack to the treated area if you have an swelling round the injection sites..

​

• Avoid touching the treated area within 6 hours following treatment. Avoid wearing make up for the rest of the day, if you need to wash the face after treatment do not do this for at least 6 hours and make sure you wash gently with mild soap and water.

​

• Avoid alcohol for 24 hours.

​

• Stay well hydrated by drinking 2 litres of water a day, this helps the skin booster settle and hydrate.

​

• Until the initial swelling and redness have resolved, do not expose the treated area to intense heat e.g. solarium, sunbathing or extreme coldness for 48 hours. Avoid heavy exercise for 24 hours.

​

• If you have previously suffered from facial herpes, there is a risk that the injections could contribute to another eruption of herpes (cold sores etc.).

​

• If you are using asprin or any similar medication, be aware that this may increase the risk of bruising or bleeding at the injection site.

It can be deeply satisfying to see your skin deeply cleansed of impurities, so taking special care of your skin following this treatment helps to make these effects last longer!!  Don't forget to keep your top ups regular to maintain and improve the skin.
