post treatment after care advice

Our care does not stop at the clinic door! 

Our practitioners are always on hand to offer you follow-up appointments, skincare prescriptions and to answer any questions – if you are worried about a treatment side effect, you can call us for emergency access to a MYLA Nurse.

Simply call our usual number Mon-Sat :  0115 855 0385  or for anything Urgent 07791742973.

If it is non urgent please email us at: info@mylaaesthetics.co.uk

Although extremely rare, complications following aesthetic treatments can occur and we completely understand how anxious you may feel once you begin to google symptoms. 

 If you require assistance following a treatment and it is out of hours, please call 07791742973. A MYLA Nurse will then call you back (usually within one hour).

It’s all part of our MYLA guarantee.

View our post-treatment advice below, for:

• Wrinkle reduction treatments
• Dermal Filler Treatments
• Skin treatments
• 
  

• Immediately after treatment you may have a small swelling at the injection site which will reduce within 30 minutes.
• There may occasionally be a small bruise or redness on the injection areas which will resolve within a few days. 
• The full effect of wrinkle reduction injections takes up to 30 days but most people start to notice some changes within 5 days and a full result by 14 days.
• If a review is needed this needs to be booked within 4 weeks of treatment.
• Avoid alcohol, exercise and facial massage for 24 hours afterwards as it can lead to flushing of the skin – this can reduce the effectiveness of the treatment.
• Avoid applying makeup directly to the injection sites for 12 hours.
• Avoid taking Ibuprofen or Aspirin for 24 hours as this can lead to bruising. 
• 
  

• You may have some discomfort, swelling and bruising around the area treated- this should resolve within a few days.
• If you notice any areas of skin that become pale or grey in colour or if you are experiencing ongoing and worsening pain, you should seek immediate advice by calling us on the mobile number above (if you ring out of hours). These side effects are very rare but potentially serious and require attention.
• Avoid touching or applying makeup directly to the injection sites for 24 hours. Please be mindful of pets touching the treated area.
• Avoid alcohol, exercise, aspirin and ibuprofen for at least 24 hours as this can increase the risk of bruising.

• Avoid alcohol, heat, and exercise for at least 48 hours after treatment.
• If you have been provided with a aftercare pack please use all of the products in the pack.
• Avoid sun and UV exposure to the treatment area 4 weeks before and after treatment. Exposure can lead to pigmentation changes in the skin.
• Avoid touching or applying make-up to the treatment area for 24 hours.
• Avoid scrubbing the skin and using any products containing active ingredients (e.g. glycolic acid, salicylic acid, retinol) for at least 48 hours.
• Please ensure you keep the treatment area clean – we recommend using a fresh pillowcase after treatment. Please avoid pets touching the treated area following microneedling treatments and Dermaforce.
• You may have some discomfort, swelling, redness, peeling of the skin or bruising around the treatment area(s); this should disappear within a few days.
• If you notice any areas of skin that become blistered, painful or crusted please call us for immediate advice.
