CARE GUIDELINES

Facial Balancing Care Guide

Because Facial Balancing combines neurotoxins and filler across multiple areas in one appointment, a bit of extra preparation and aftercare helps keep swelling manageable and your results looking cohesive.

WHY IT MATTERS

Why Aftercare Matters for Your Results

Treating several areas at once means your face needs a little more time to settle evenly. Following your aftercare plan closely helps every treated area heal in sync, so your final result looks balanced rather than uneven.

Pre & Post Care Tips

Because multiple areas are treated together, expect slightly more swelling than a single-area treatment, with full results visible within about two weeks as everything settles.

Pre Care Guidelines

- Avoid alcohol and blood-thinning medications for a few days before your appointment to reduce bruising risk.
- Come in with a clean, makeup-free face so your provider can accurately assess your features.
- Share your full medical history, including any previous filler or neurotoxin treatments.
- Block off a little extra time after your appointment in case of noticeable swelling.
- Write down your priority areas so your provider can sequence your treatment plan accordingly.

Post Care Guidelines

- Avoid alcohol, intense exercise, and prolonged sun exposure for 24 to 48 hours after treatment.
- Do not press or massage treated areas unless your provider instructs you to.
- Hold off on other facial treatments, like laser or microneedling, until your provider confirms it's safe.
- Sleep with your head elevated for the first couple of nights to help manage swelling.
- Avoid heavy makeup on treated areas for the first 24 hours.
