Hyaluronic acid not only maintains skin integrity but also locks in substantial moisture, providing hydration and lubrication to tissues. Therefore, hyaluronic acid injections for nasolabial folds are highly effective and yield excellent results. While this treatment is remarkably successful, post-injection care is essential to prolong its benefits.
1. Avoid strenuous exercise immediately after treatment to prevent complications.
2. Avoid makeup and alcohol consumption on the day of treatment to prevent complications.
3. Do not massage the treated area for one week.
4. If slight firmness persists at the injection site 2–3 weeks post-treatment, it will soften quickly. Combining treatment with IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) can enhance aesthetic outcomes.
5. Avoid exposing the treated area to intense sunlight or extreme heat (e.g., sunbathing, hot environments), and refrain from hot springs or saunas. Do not apply cold or hot compresses to the injection site.
6. If taking aspirin or similar anticoagulants, discontinue use several days prior to injection to prevent interference with hyaluronic acid treatment efficacy.Avoid aspirin, anti-inflammatory pain relievers, ginkgo, garlic, vitamin A, vitamin E, and similar substances for one week post-injection.
Hyaluronic acid injections are highly effective for reducing nasolabial folds. Adhering to the doctor's post-treatment care instructions is essential to maximize wrinkle-reducing results.
