Fat dissolving aftercare
To enjoy the best results from your jaw sculpting treatment (aka fat dissolving injections or double chin treatment) and to avoid any adverse reactions it is important to follow your aftercare instructions.
Immediately after your jaw sculpting treatment, you may experience mild to moderate swelling and tenderness - this is the product working its magic. You may also notice redness, numbness, bruising, and/or stiffness in the treatment area - this is common and to be expected with this treatment and should resolve over the next 2 weeks.
Cool compress and simple analgesia, such as paracetamol or ibuprofen, can be used to help with any discomfort.
Over the next month you will notice the elimination of fat cells in the treatment area as they are broken down and excreted by your body.
Most patients require between 2 to 4 treatments for optimal results. Subsequent treatments must be performed at least 4 to 8 weeks apart. This allows the active ingredient time to target the submental fat and gives your body time to heal in between treatments.
For the 24 hours following your jaw sculpting appointment:
Keep the area clean
Do not touch or rub the treated area
Apply a cool compress to any swelling
If you require makeup, use only a quality mineral makeup
Stay upright for the first 4 hours post-treatment

For the 2 weeks following your jaw sculpting appointment:
Avoid facials, peels, laser hair removal, or waxing in the area
