Can I wear makeup right after getting a facial injection?

In summary, various facial injection procedures, such as fillers, Botox, or skin rejuvenation biostimulators like fresh collagen, all aim directly to rejuvenate and nourish the skin. Important post-treatment care includes... Avoid wearing makeup for at least 24 hours. To allow the skin to rest and reduce the risk of infection. Although some patients might ask, "There's only one injection mark, can't I wear makeup right away?" For example, after getting filler or Botox in certain areas, such as filler for sunken cheeks or Botox to reduce the jawline, you might be able to wear makeup immediately. However, extra caution should be exercised, and the injection site should be avoided.

The most important thing What the doctor always emphasizes is... Consult with and strictly follow the instructions of the physician performing the procedure. Because everyone's skin and problems are different, personalized care helps patients achieve the best and safest results. The doctor has summarized the table below for easy understanding.

(If there is no swelling/bruising/no needle marks) but if the injection is in the mouth area. It is recommended to refrain from contact for at least 24 hours.Avoid irritating cosmetics (heavy sunscreens/clogging foundations) and avoid "tapping/blending" too hard on the sprayed area.
