AFTERCARE SKINCARE REGIMEN
2. Brighten: Apply a brightening fluid like Arieed MD reNew Skin Brightening Cream as directed.
3. Correct: Apply a daily corrective cream such as Arieed MD reDew Intensive Hyaluronic Moisturizer as the last step in your skincare regimen before your sunscreen. Use broad-spectrum SPF 30 or above in the morning and throughout the day
POST-TREATMENT CARE
What to expect:
✔ There can be temporary redness and swelling at the injection site. This will usually resolve within 3 days. Cold compresses can be used to reduce swelling. Any lumps should not be massaged in the first 72 hours as this is most likely swelling.
✔ Avoid touching the treated area within 4 hours of your treatment, after which the treatment area can be gently washed with soap and water.
✔ Until redness and swelling have gone down, avoid exposure to intense heat (sunlamps/sunbathing).
✔ Avoid exercise for 72 hours and alcohol for 24 hours after your treatment.
✔ Do not have a flu shot for a minimum of 2 weeks after your treatment.
