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.
