Why Aftercare Matters

Collagen Support

What to Expect After Bellafill

  • Mild swelling, redness, or tenderness at injection sites.
  • Bruising may appear immediately or within a day or two.
  • Small lumps or firmness can occur but usually settle over time.
  • Immediate improvement is visible, with continued enhancement as collagen is stimulated over weeks.

First 24–48 Hours – Protect Your Results

  • Apply cold compresses gently to reduce swelling; avoid pressing directly on treated areas.
  • Avoid touching, rubbing, or massaging injection sites.
  • Remain upright for several hours post-treatment; sleep with head slightly elevated if needed.
  • Avoid alcohol and strenuous exercise to minimize bruising.
  • Over-the-counter acetaminophen is acceptable for mild discomfort, but avoid anti-inflammatory medications (ibuprofen, aspirin) unless approved.

Days 3–7 – Gentle Care

  • Light daily activities are fine; avoid vigorous exercise that increases blood flow to treated areas.
  • Makeup may be applied after 24–48 hours if swelling or tenderness has resolved.
  • Do not undergo facial massages, facials, or any heat-based treatments in treated areas during this period.

Week 2 and Beyond – Maintenance

  • Swelling and firmness should gradually subside.
  • Long-term results develop as collagen stimulation continues.
  • Maintain regular follow-ups for assessment or touch-ups if needed.
  • Consistent sun protection and gentle skincare support your results.
