What To Expect Working With Nurse Joelle
Your Guide to Cosmetic Injectable Appointments
Preparing for your appointment
Preparing for your injectable appointment can help ensure a smooth experience and optimal results. Here are some key steps to follow:
- Consultation: Schedule a consultation beforehand to discuss your goals, medical history, and any concerns with your injector.
- Avoid Blood Thinners: For at least 24-48 hours prior, refrain from taking blood thinners like aspirin, ibuprofen, and certain supplements (like fish oil and vitamin E) to minimize the risk of bruising.
- Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water leading up to your appointment to keep your skin hydrated and promote optimal results.
- Limit Alcohol: Avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours before your appointment, as it can increase the risk of swelling and bruising.
- Skincare Routine: Maintain your regular skincare routine, but avoid harsh treatments like chemical peels or facials a few days before the appointment.
- Discuss Allergies: Inform your injector about any allergies, especially to medications or skincare products.
- Arrive with Clean Skin: On the day of your appointment, arrive with a clean face, free of makeup and skincare products.
What to expect after appointment
After an injectable appointment, it’s normal to experience some minor side effects. Here’s what you can generally expect:
- Immediate Results: You may notice changes right away, especially with fillers, while Botox results may take a few days to fully develop.
- Swelling and Bruising: Mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites is common and typically resolves within a few days.
- Tenderness: Some sensitivity or tenderness in the treated areas may occur but should subside quickly.
- Avoid Touching: Refrain from touching or massaging the treated areas for at least 24 hours to minimize the risk of complications.
- Limit Physical Activity: It’s advisable to avoid strenuous exercise and heat exposure (like saunas) for the first 24-48 hours.
- Follow Aftercare Instructions: Adhere to any specific aftercare instructions provided by your injector for optimal results and safety.
- Monitor for Side Effects: Keep an eye out for any unusual reactions, such as excessive swelling or pain, and contact your injector if you have concerns.
