Dermal Filler Injections
Aftercare & Emergency Contact Information
Thank you for choosing Ya Wee Butey for your Dermal Filler treatment. Please follow these aftercare instructions carefully to achieve the best results.
Immediately After Treatment
Some redness, swelling, tenderness, and minor bruising at the injection sites are normal and usually settle within a few days.
Don’t touch, rub, or massage the treated areas unless specifically instructed by your practitioner.
Avoid applying makeup for at least 12 hours to minimise the risk of infection.
Use a cold compress or wrapped ice pack to help reduce swelling (apply for short periods only, do not press firmly).
First 24–48 Hours
Avoid strenuous exercise, saunas, steam rooms, hot showers, and alcohol — these can worsen swelling and bruising.
Stay upright for at least 4 hours after treatment; avoid lying face down.
Do not expose the treated area to excessive heat or cold.
Sleep on your back where possible to avoid pressure on the treated areas, particularly for lips, cheeks, and tear troughs.
Specific Area Guidance
Lips (Lip Enhancement)
Swelling can be more pronounced and may last up to 5 days.
Small lumps may be felt during healing — avoid massaging unless advised.
Keep lips moisturised with a gentle balm and avoid very hot or spicy foods for 24 hours.
Cheek, Chin & Jaw Augmentation
Mild firmness or tenderness is normal.
Avoid facial massages, aesthetic treatments, or dental work for 2 weeks.
Do not apply pressure (e.g., from tight headwear, masks, or resting hands on the face).
Nasolabial Folds & Marionette Lines
Be gentle when washing or applying skincare.
Avoid exaggerated facial movements (e.g., chewing gum) for 24 hours.
Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty / Pixie Tip Lift
Do not wear glasses or sunglasses that rest on the treated area for at least 7 days.
Avoid any trauma or pressure to the nose — sleep on your back and avoid facial treatments for 2 weeks.
Slight asymmetry or unevenness is normal initially due to swelling.
Tear Trough (Under Eye)
This area is delicate — expect mild puffiness or slight bruising for a few days.
Sleep with your head elevated for the first 2 nights to reduce swelling.
Avoid applying concealer or eye creams for 24 hours.
Ongoing Care
Results are typically visible immediately, but final results appear after 2–3 weeks once swelling subsides.
Avoid other facial treatments (chemical peels, lasers, facials, or microneedling) for at least 2 weeks.
Keep the area clean and protected with SPF 30+ daily.
Stay well hydrated and maintain a healthy lifestyle for optimal longevity of your filler.
