Juvederm Recovery
Juvederm injections are a minimally invasive procedure, so recovery is rapid. But you should avoid strenuous workouts, exposure to the sun, and wearing makeup for at least a day. Following these tips will ensure the best results.
Most patients notice a plumper face with fewer lines and wrinkles right away. Juvederm encourages the body to make more collagen, so the results can last one or two years.
To have the best results, be sure to follow these guidelines:
- Don’t have spa procedures such as facials for a few weeks after Juvederm injections.
- Don’t tan or lie in the sun for two or three weeks.
- Avoid hot baths and saunas because they can increase swelling.
- Don’t touch the area where Juvederm was injected for a few days.
- Wearing makeup is ok after a day, but don’t press too firmly on the treated area.
- Try to avoid extreme facial expressions for a few hours so the Juvederm doesn’t change position before it is absorbed by the tissues.
