Treatment Pre-care & Aftercare

Pre-care Instructions

• Shave the treatment area 24 hours before your appointment.
• Avoid sun exposure and tanning (including solariums and self tan) for at least 2 weeks (and preferably one month for self-tan/solariums) before treatment and consistently use Results Active Protect SPF.
• Do not wax, pluck, or bleach hair in the treatment area for at least one month prior to your appointment.
• Refrain from using active skincare ingredients, exfoliating products (AHAs/BHAs), and photosensitive medications for at least 2 weeks before your treatment.

Aftercare Instructions

• A mild sunburn- like sensation is anticipated. This usually calms within 2-12 hours of treatment, but may last up to 2 days.
• For immediate relief, apply Results Active Recovery Gel to cool and hydrate the skin, as well as cooling skin under cold running water or applying a cold compress to reduce heat in the skin.
• Until redness has completely resolved, avoid shaving, waxing or plucking hair, exfoliation, excessive sweating, swimming or saunas, very hot showers and tight restrictive clothing.
• Apply Results Active Protect SPF daily to sun exposed areas between treatments.
• Appearance of “stubble” may appear between 1-4 weeks. This is not hair re-growth,but the treated hairs being purged from the follicle. Allow this hair to fall out on its own.
• Results Active Smooth can be used to gently exfoliate the area.
• Little red itchy bumps may appear, this is a heat rash and a common side effect of laser. It’s important to keep the area as cool as possible.
• Allow any blistered or open areas to heal naturally. Do not pick at the areas as it can scar.
• Allow any crusting to heal naturally, crusting will resolve within 3-14 days.

AFTERCARE TIP
For immediate relief run COLD WATER over treated area or apply ICE PACK on hard to reach areas. 5min on and 5min off until heat subsides.

If you experience prolonged redness, swelling, infection or any other disturbance to the treated skin contact your clinic. In rare cases of infection we recommend you contact your GP.

General Aftercare Instructions

Proper aftercare is essential to ensure the best results and minimise the risk of complications following injectable treatments. This guide provides general aftercare instructions applicable to all injectable treatments, with specific pages for different products where necessary.

• Cold Compress (Optional): If recommended, you may apply a cold compress to the treated area for 10–15 minutes every hour to reduce swelling and discomfort. This step is generally not required for treatments like anti-wrinkle injections or Rejuran. Avoid direct ice contact to prevent skin damage.

• Avoid Touching: Refrain from touching, pressing, or massaging the treated area for at least 6 hours unless otherwise directed by your practitioner. This helps prevent infection and displacement of the product.

• Avoid Makeup: Avoid applying makeup to the treated areas for at least 24 hours to reduce the risk of infection.

Activity Restrictions

• Exercise: Avoid strenuous activities, including exercise, for 24–48 hours to prevent increased blood flow and heat from metabolising the product too quickly, which could reduce its effectiveness. Additionally, avoiding exercise helps minimise the risk of bruising and swelling.

• Alcohol: Refrain from alcohol consumption for 24 hours, as it can increase bruising and delay healing.

• Sun and Heat Exposure: Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, heat sources, and tanning beds for at least 2 weeks. Use a high-SPF sunscreen if you must be outdoors.

General Aftercare Instructions

Proper aftercare is essential to ensure the best results and minimise the risk of complications following injectable treatments. This guide provides general aftercare instructions applicable to all injectable treatments, with specific pages for different products where necessary.

• Cold Compress (Optional): If recommended, you may apply a cold compress to the treated area for 10–15 minutes every hour to reduce swelling and discomfort. This step is generally not required for treatments like anti-wrinkle injections or Rejuran. Avoid direct ice contact to prevent skin damage.

• Avoid Touching: Refrain from touching, pressing, or massaging the treated area for at least 6 hours unless otherwise directed by your practitioner. This helps prevent infection and displacement of the product.

• Stay Upright: Remain upright for at least 4 hours post-treatment. This helps the product settle properly and reduces the risk of unwanted side effects.

• Avoid Makeup: Avoid applying makeup to the treated areas for at least 24 hours to reduce the risk of infection.

Activity Restrictions

• Exercise: Avoid strenuous activities, including exercise, for 24–48 hours to prevent increased blood flow and heat from metabolising the product too quickly, which could reduce its effectiveness. Additionally, avoiding exercise helps minimise the risk of bruising and swelling.

• Alcohol: Refrain from alcohol consumption for 24 hours, as it can increase bruising and delay healing.

• Sun and Heat Exposure: Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, heat sources, and tanning beds for at least 2 weeks. Use a high-SPF sunscreen if you must be outdoors.
