My face is relatively full, and my friend suggested that I get a facial slimming injection. What should I pay attention to after receiving the slimming injection?
Doctor's answer (1)
After receiving a slimming injection for the face, the following precautions should be observed:
1. Avoid massaging or rubbing: Do not massage or rub the injection site to prevent uneven diffusion of the medication, which may affect the results.
2. Avoid strenuous exercise: Refrain from strenuous physical activity in the short term to prevent sweating, which may lead to infection.
3. Pay attention to diet: Avoid consuming spicy or irritating foods, as well as hard-shelled foods, which may affect the slimming results.
4. Monitor symptoms: Watch for any abnormal symptoms at the injection site, such as redness, swelling, pain, or bruising. If severe discomfort occurs, seek medical attention promptly.
5. Avoid medication: For a period after the injection, avoid taking anticoagulant medications such as aspirin, which may increase the risk of bleeding.
6. Maintain cleanliness: Keep the injection site clean and avoid contact with water to prevent infection.
7. Follow medical advice: Strictly follow the doctor's instructions and attend follow-up appointments on time.
If any concerns arise after receiving the facial slimming injection, communicate with your doctor promptly.
