- No dental work 2 weeks prior to treatment, even if your dental work is as simple as a routine cleaning.
- No vaccines or medical procedures 2 weeks prior or following filler treatment.
- Refrain from consuming alcohol and smoking for at least 24 hours before the procedure.
- Refrain from manipulating/massaging the treated areas for 48-hours post-treatment, unless otherwise instructed by your provider.
