For the first 24–48 hours (applies to most treatments)

Quick Aftercare Rules

  • Avoid heat: hot showers, sauna, steam room, spa pools.
  • Avoid intense exercise (sweating + heat can worsen swelling/irritation).
  • No alcohol (24 hours) if you’ve had injectables (reduces bruising risk).
  • Don’t touch, rub, or pick treated areas.
    Keep it clean: fresh pillowcase, clean hands, avoid dirty gym towels.
  • For the first 7 days.
  • No active skincare on treated areas unless we say it’s okay: retinoids, AHAs/BHAs, strong vitamin C, benzoyl peroxide
  • SPF daily (this is non-negotiable after peels, pigmentation treatments, microneedling, lasers/light)
  • Avoid sun / tanning as much as possible

INJECTABLES AFTERCARE

Please read and follow the aftercare advice below carefully. If you have any concerns after your treatment, or if you do not understand any part of your aftercare, please contact your technician at Kaiz Wellness Medispa.

Before your Injectable Treatment

Before your treatment, you will have a one-on-one consultation with a qualified practitioner. During this consultation, we will:

  1. Discuss your goals and expectations.
  2. Review your Medical History
  3. Assess facial structure and skin quality
  4. Determine the most appropriate treatment approach.

You may be advised to avoid alcohol, fish oil, or blood-thinning supplements before treatment to reduce bruising risk.

After your Injectable Treatment

Injectable treatments involve minimal downtime, and most clients return to normal activities on the same day. What you may experience:

  1. Mild swelling or redness at injection sites
  2. Tenderness or tightness
  3. Small bumps or raised areas (usually temporary)
  4. Bruising, which can last several days
  5. These effects are typically mild and settle naturally.

Aftercare Guidelines

  1. Remain upright for 4 hours after anti-wrinkling injections
  2. Avoid rubbing or massaging treated areas unless instructed.
  3. Avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, and excessive heat for 24 hours.
  4. Make-up may usually be applied after 12-24 hours if the skin is intact

Less Common Effects

  1. Prolonged swelling
  2. Localised numbness or firmness
  3. Asymmetry during the early healing phase.
  4. Rare complications will be discussed with you during consultation.

HIFU AFTERCARE

Please read and follow the aftercare advice below carefully. If you have any concerns after your treatment, do not understand any part of your aftercare, or have additional questions, please contact your technician at Kaiz Wellness Medispa.

Before your HIFU Treatment

Before undergoing HIFU Treatment, you will be scheduled for a one-on-one consultation with one of our qualified practitioners.

During this consultation, we will:

  1. Discuss your concerns and goals
  2. Assess your skin and facial or body structure.
  3. Determine whether HIFU is a suitable treatment for you.
  4. Explain expected outcomes, limitations, and aftercare

Once your HIFU treatment is booked, no special preparation or skin care routine is required prior to the procedure.

To enhance comfort during treatment, you may take an over-the-counter pain relief or any prescribed medication as advised by your practitioner prior to your appointment.

After your HIFU Treatment

HIFU is a non-invasive treatment with no downtime, allowing you to return to your normal daily activities immediately after your procedure.

What you may experience?

It is normal to experience some temporary post-treatment effects, including:

  1. Mild redness or flushing (typically resolves within a few hours)
  2. Slight swelling
  3. Tingling or tenderness to touch
  4. These sensations are generally mild and temporary and should settle on their own.
  5. Less common effects

Some clients may experience:

  1. Temporary bruising in small areas
  2. Localised numbness or sensitivity

These effects are uncommon and usually resolve without intervention.

As with any medical or aesthetic procedure, rare side effects are possible. These will be discussed with you in detail during your consultation so you can make an informed decision.

Post-Treatment Care Recommendations

Although no downtime is required, we recommend the following to support comfort and results:

  1. Avoid excessive heat (sauna, steam rooms, very hot showers) for 24-48 hours.
  2. Avoid intense exercise for 24 hours if the treated area feels tender.
  3. Keep skin hydrated and protected with a gentle moisturiser.
  4. Apply SPF daily, especially for facial treatments.
