AFTERCARE ADVICE FOR AESTHETIC PRCEDURES

PDO Thread Aftercare

  • Gently wash the treated areas on the same day with cool boiled water, but do not rub or massage the face for 2 weeks.
  • The facial muscles need rest for 2 weeks following the treatment. Do not open mouth too wide for 3-4 and avoid dental treatments if possible.
  • Avoid vigorous exercises for 1-week post procedure.
  • A stinging or “pulling” pain or discomfort is normal. Take paracetamol 500mg 1-2 tablets 6-hourly as required. This will subside over a 2-4-week period. Avoid taking any anti-inflammatory medication such as Nurofen for 4-6 days as this could lead to more bruising.
  • Avoid alcohol for 5-7 days.
  • Do not take anti-coagulant medication (aspirin, unless prescribed for medical indications) for 7 days.
  • Avoid Omega 3 and 9 for several days before and after treatment to reduce possibility of bruising.
  • Refrain from extreme temperatures, such as those found in saunas or steams rooms, for 2 weeks.
  • Apply SPF 30+ for 2 weeks after treatment to avoid post-inflammatory pigmentation in the areas of thread insertions.
  • Allow a 10-week gap between PDO threads and Radio Frequency (RF) or any heat producing device (laser, IPL, etc) procedures in the same areas.
  • Your practitioner may prescribe a course of antibiotics in case of treatment with Cog threads.
  • Scratchy sensation is possible, this will subside over a 2-3-week period.
  • Possible complications may include infection, swelling, bruising, foreign body reaction in epidermis (granuloma), and protrusion.
  • Extremely rare, temporary facial drop may occur due to local anaesthetic, swelling, haematoma or pressure of the cannula or thread on the nerve. Your practitioner MUST be informed immediately if you experience this symptom. If your practitioner can’t be reached contact A&E at once.
  • Schedule a follow up examination with your practitioner 7 days later.
  • Combination with other procedures from 7 days onwards: PRP, Derma Roller, fillers.
