BEFORE TREATMENT
Alcohol Consumption
Alcohol can increase the risk of bruising and swelling, so we recommend avoiding alcohol for at least 24 hours before your appointment where possible.
Water
Maintaining good hydration supports circulation and skin health, which can help optimise treatment outcomes and support the body’s natural healing processes.
Pain Killers
NSAIDs, including ibuprofen and aspirin, can increase bruising and bleeding, so they should be avoided for at least 48 hours before treatment unless medically required.
Arnica
Arnica is often recommended as it may help reduce the severity of bruising and swelling following injectable treatments.
Sun
Excessive sun exposure and sunbeds can increase skin sensitivity and irritation, so we advise avoiding both for at least 48 hours before treatment where possible.
