Pre-Care Instructions for Fillers

To ensure the best results and minimize potential side effects, please follow these pre-care guidelines before your filler appointment:

• Avoid Blood Thinners: Discontinue the use of aspirin, ibuprofen, vitamin E, fish oil, and other blood-thinning supplements 5–7 days before treatment to reduce the risk of bruising.
• Avoid Alcohol: Refrain from alcohol consumption 24 hours before your appointment.
• Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to promote healing and ensure optimal results.
• No Dental Work: Avoid dental procedures or cleanings at least 2 weeks before and after your filler appointment to reduce the risk of infection.
• Disclose Health Information: Inform your provider about any allergies, medications, or medical conditions prior to treatment.
• Plan Ahead: Swelling or bruising may occur, so schedule your treatment well in advance of any major events.

• No Makeup: Refrain from applying makeup for the rest of the day after your treatment.
• Avoid Heat Exposure: Stay away from saunas, hot tubs, and intense exercise for at least 48 hours to reduce swelling.
