- Do not rub or touch the treated area until the next morning.
- No facial treatments, laser, or massage for one week, this is to help avoid any complications.

- Paracetamol is recommended for any headaches or pain. Try to avoid medicines such as ibuprofen (Nurofen) or diclofenac (Voltaren) for the next 24 hours.
- There is a small risk of bruising. If this occurs do not worry as it is temporary, it’s generally minor and can easily be covered up with makeup. Arnica tablets and hirudoid cream helps reduce bruising.
Your treatment will take 4-14 days to start working. If after 2 weeks, you feel that you still have more muscle movement than expected, then this can be adjusted at your follow up injection assessment, at an additional cost. This needs to be booked back in within 1 month of treatment.
