PrecareDuring the day if lips feel dry, apply a liberal amount of ointment. Just tap on skin and do not rub in. Always use a clean Q-tip, not fingers to apply ointment to the lips area. This will reduce the risk of secondary infection. It is advised to sleep on an old pillowcase. There will be residual pigment coming off the lips for several days that can stain linens.

After lips are no longer tender to the touch they may become flaky. This is normal and is expected. Please do not pick or scratch at them. This may significantly reduce the amount pigment uptake.

Sculptra Success – Essential Pre-Treatment TipsAvoid the sun and tanning beds pre & post procedure.

  • Avoid blood thinners:Be sure to use a sun block once lips are healed. For at least a week before your treatment, steer clear of aspirin, ibuprofen, and other blood-thinning medications or supplements (like fish oil or vitamin E) unless prescribed by your doctor. This reduces the risk of bruising.Do not use any Glycolic, Hydroxy or fruit acid products on lips.
  • Say no to alcohol:Avoid direct water pressure, pools and other bodies of water, until healed. Put that glass of wine on hold for 24-48 hours before your appointment. Alcohol can increase the likelihood of bruising and swelling.Please be advised it is a good idea to brush your teeth with just water for 72 hours, post treatment.
  • Hold off on certain skincare products:You can resume wearing lipstick once lips are healed.

  • Follow all before and after instructions after all lip treatmentsThe 5-5-5 rule:. Massage the treated areas for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days post-treatment. This helps distribute the product evenly and stimulate collagen production.Lip retouch must be scheduled 30 days apart from initial season to help with color retention. Lips heal in three stages!! Too dark – Too light – Just right. This takes one Month to happen.
  • Cool it down:Please avoid any friction to lip area. Apply ice or cold packs to the treated areas for the first 24-48 hours to minimize swelling and discomfort.Permanent Eyeliner (Thin and Natural, Lash Enhancement)
  • Avoid strenuous exercise:Eye Liner- After Care Take a break from intense workouts for 24-48 hours after your treatment to reduce the risk of additional swelling or bruising.Eyes may be swollen and tender for a few days. This is normal and will dissipate quickly. Itching is also common. An ice pack protected with a wet barrier film of a paper towel can be very nice.
  • Stay sun-safe:Please do not ice for more than 10 minutes a sitting. Icing is most effective, the first 24 hours. Protect your skin from direct sun exposure and wear broad-spectrum SPF for at least a week following your treatment.Sleeping slightly elevated can also reduce any residual swelling of eyes.
  • Skip the makeup:The most swelling is usually an issue the following morning after your procedure. Give your skin a breather and avoid applying makeup for 24 hours post-treatment.You may soil your pillowcase with some residual pigment on eyes.
  • Be patient:In the morning if eyes are stuck together, use a wet Q-tip and gently separate. Remember, Sculptra works gradually. Your full results will develop over the course of a few months as your body produces new collagen.Do not rub, peel or pick.
  • Hydrate from within:Keep the area clean and only use the aftercare given for 4 days. Continue drinking plenty of water to support your skin’s healing process and maintain hydration.Use a fresh Q-tip for every application.
  • Follow-up faithfully:Do not let the eyeliner become dry in the first 72 hours. Attend all recommended follow-up appointments to ensure optimal results and discuss any concerns with your practitioner.Avoid sun, pools, hot tubs and all creams around eye area.

Sculptra is your skin’s secret weapon against aging. This innovative injectable works differently from traditional fillers. Instead of just filling in wrinkles, Sculptra stimulates your skin’s natural collagen production. We inject it into the dermal layer of your skin, precisely where collagen loss occurs. Over time, it helps rebuild your skin’s structural foundation, restoring volume and creating a more youthful appearance. It’s not just a quick fix – it’s a long-term investment in your skin’s health and beauty.Waxing

Any exfoliating products

Unlike traditional hyaluronic acid fillers that provide immediate volume, Sculptra works gradually to stimulate your own collagen production. This means results that look incredibly natural and improve over time. It’s not about looking different – it’s about looking like the best version of yourself. Whether Sculptra is “better” depends on your specific goals, but for those seeking natural-looking, long-lasting rejuvenation, Sculptra is often the gold standard.Avoid direct sun exposure and excessive heat. An SPF of at least 30 must be used daily.
Do not go to a tanning bed for at least two weeks post procedure. This practice should be discontinued due to increased risk of skin cancer and signs of aging.
Do not pick or pull on any loosening skin. This could potentially cause hyperpigmentation.

Some of us have skin that’s a little too eager to heal. If you have a history of keloid scars – those raised, expanded scars that grow beyond the original injury – Sculptra might not be your ideal dance partner. Keloid-prone skin can sometimes overreact to the micro-injuries caused by injections, potentially interfering with the smooth, natural-looking results we’re aiming for. But don’t worry – we have plenty of other beauty tricks up our sleeves for those with keloid tendencies!
> Expecting a little bundle of joy or currently nursing? Congratulations! While this is an incredibly beautiful time in your life, it’s also a time when we need to be extra cautious about cosmetic treatments. Although there’s no evidence that Sculptra is harmful during pregnancy or breastfeeding, we always err on the side of caution when it comes to your and your baby’s health. Think of it as a beauty raincheck – Sculptra will be here waiting to help you reclaim your pre-baby glow when the time is right.
