WRINKLE REDUCTION AFTERCARE

To ensure the best results from your Wrinkle Reduction treatment and to avoid any adverse reactions it is important to follow your aftercare. 

Immediately after your treatment you may experience mild tenderness, bruising and small blebs similar to mozzie bites. These common side effects will ease over the next 24 hours however bruising may take up to a week to resolve. Some people will experience tension headaches post wrinkle reduction treatment to the forehead and frown areas, simple
Paracetamol will suffice if needed.
