PRE CARE INSTRUCTIONS
If approved by your prescribing provider, avoid all blood thinners 1 week before having your injection. This may include Aspirin, Ibuprofen, Aleve, Motrin, Vitamin E, Fish Oil, Garlic, Ginseng, St. John’s Wort, Ginkgo Biloba, and Primrose oil.
Avoid alcohol 1-2 days prior to treatment to lessen the chances of bruising.
Oral Arnica is optional prior to treatment to minimize bruising.
If possible, come to your appointment with a clean face, free of make-up.
We will not treat you with neurotoxins if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
POST CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours post-treatment.
Do not apply make-up preferably for 4 hours after treatment. Waiting 24 hours is best.
Avoid lying flat for 4 hours after treatment.
Avoid massaging or applying pressure to the treated area for 4 hours. Avoid wearing a tight hat if your forehead is treated.
Be patient. It takes two-three weeks to see full results. We will not inject more tox until you've passed the 2 week mark.
Schedule a tox follow-up with your injector after 2 weeks if you feel any tweaks are needed or you would like a dose adjustment for further correction.
Average longevity is 3-4 months, but it is very normal to see some movement returning after 6-10 weeks as it gradually wears off.
Continue to avoid alcohol for 1-2 days if bruising occurs as it could worsen.
You may continue to take Arnica after treatment to heal bruising faster.
Call the office immediately if the areas treated become red or hot to the touch days after treatment.
