What are some things to avoid after getting lip fillers?

After getting lip fillers, there are a few precautions to take to ensure the best and safest results. Let's take a look at what they are:

1. Avoid consuming very hot food or drinks for approximately the first 24-48 hours, as heat may cause the filler to dissolve faster than usual.
2. Please refrain from kissing for now. Too much pressure could shift the filler, as it hasn't fully settled yet. Wait about 24-48 hours.
3. Avoid massaging or pressing hard on the lips for about 1 week.
4. Avoid hot showers or saunas on the first day. Actually, it's not a serious prohibition, so it's best to avoid it if possible.
5. You shouldn't drink alcohol for the first 24 hours because it may cause you to bruise easily.
6. If possible, sleep on your back with your head slightly elevated on the first night to help reduce swelling.
7. If you experience slight swelling, don't worry; it's normal. However, if the swelling is severe or you notice any unusual symptoms, please contact the clinic immediately.
8. Finally, don't forget to apply lip balm frequently to keep your lips moisturized.

Generally, swelling or bruising should subside on its own within 1-3 days after the injection.
