D' Lovevery Clinic This is a summary of important post-procedure care instructions, whether for injections or laser treatments from our clinic. This is to ensure our clients understand and can properly and safely care for their skin, leading to even better results. Overall, post-procedure care varies depending on the procedure, especially regarding makeup application, which requires special attention.

The most important thing is to strictly follow your doctor's instructions. For injectable procedures such as Botox, fillers, mesofat, or biostimulators, it is generally recommended to refrain from applying makeup for approximately 4-24 hours to prevent compression, infection, or the spread of the medication. For some types of lasers, such as CO2 lasers that cause scabbing, makeup must be avoided completely until the scabs fall off and the skin has healed properly, which may take 7-14 days. Regardless of the procedure, it is crucial to avoid strong sunlight and apply sunscreen regularly, as well as to cleanse your skin gently. If you have any further questions or experience any unusual symptoms after the procedure, please do not hesitate to contact our admin or doctor. We are happy to provide close care and consultation.

This answer is not a diagnosis. Please consult a doctor if you have any worrisome symptoms.
