General Post-Medical Spa Instructions

General Guidelines for All Treatments

1. Avoid Touching Treated Areas:

• Refrain from touching, rubbing, or applying pressure to treated areas for at least 6 hours post-procedure.

2. Hydration:

• Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and support healing.

3. Sun Protection:

• Avoid direct sun exposure, tanning beds, and hot environments (e.g., saunas, steam rooms) for 48 hours.

• Use SPF 30+ sunscreen on treated areas as advised.

Treatment-Specific Instructions

Botox/Dysport/Jeuveau

• Avoid pressing or massaging the treated area as it may displace the product into neighboring muscles.

• Stay upright and avoid lying down for 4 hours post-treatment.

• Refrain from exercise or strenuous activity for 24 hours.

• Touch-Up Guidance:

• If you feel your results are not optimal, please let us know after one week. Touch-ups, if necessary, should ideally be scheduled around the two-week mark.

• Waiting longer (a month or more) may affect the effectiveness of the touch-up due to the natural breakdown of the product. We are here to ensure your satisfaction.
