Dermal Filler Aftercare
This dermal filler aftercare advice is provided so that you know what to expect following your treatment at VIVO Body Studio.
How long will the effects last?
This can vary from person to person, but results can last for up to 18 months. This will also depend on the type of product that is used, which varies depending on your requirements. For example, we may not use the same product to reduce frown lines as the product we use for lip filler treatments.
Are allergic reactions possible?
Most of the products we use contain hyaluronic acid, which occurs naturally within the body. Some products contain collagen stimulants, most of which also occur naturally in the body. As a result, the chances of a significant allergic reaction are slim, however, some redness and swelling may occur.
Can I touch my face?
Please try to wait for at least six hours before touching your face
Will I be in pain following the treatment?
It is uncommon, but you may experience some bruising which is best treated with a cold compress, such as an ice pack.
Can I exercise after dermal fillers?
It is recommended that you refrain from strenuous exercise for a week following your treatment. It should also be noted that activities such as yoga (where you are inverted) may increase swelling as more blood will flow to the face.
Can I drink alcohol during the treatment?
No.
Ok, can I drink alcohol after the treatment?
Alcohol can thin the blood. Therefore, it is recommended that you do not drink alcohol for two days before and after the treatment as this may increase the likelihood of bruising and swelling.
Can I fly after having dermal fillers?
There is no evidence to suggest that flying has a negative reaction to dermal fillers.
Are there any side-effects or risks that I should be aware of?
We discuss this in more detail on our dermal fillers side-effects page. It is also something that will be discussed during your consultation. Call 0333 012 4956 for more details.
What about sunbathing, tanning, saunas, and hot tubs?
Any sort of intense heat should be avoided for one week.
Dermal fillers can be a quick and safe way to reduce the signs of ageing and enhance your natural beauty. Following this dermal filler aftercare advice will enable you to avoid common mistakes and improve the results of your treatment.

This time around I had the pleasure of having Diana as my therapist and she was amazing. She explained everything in a simple and detailed way, allowed me to feel part of my treatment, recommended additional treatments with no pressure, and made me feel really at home.
When you are getting these kind of treatments it is very personal and you need to feel comfortable with your therapist and feel they know what they are doing.
Well my treatments were done over 2 plus hours and Diana really showed her expertise in the business of beauty. Sharing some of her previous experience and making me feel even more at ease.
Vivo has great prices and amazing people. In a neat, clean and welcoming space.
Highly recommended.
Thanks for everything Diana, I’ll be back again soon :)
JB. Sapphire is a highly skilled and professional therapist with a warm and friendly demeanor. She possesses extensive knowledge and has a strong reputation for providing safe and reliable care. I've undergone several treatments with her, including a recent Morpheus8 procedure, and I can't praise her enough! So far I had 2 sessions with Sapphire. She is a wonderful consultant. Friendly and professional. Very knowledgeable in the work she does.Definitely I would recommend Sapphire. I have booked more treatments with her. First time explained very well in detail by Shaymma would definitely recommend. First time for me to have fat freezing done . I recently had a treatment in Birmingham with Sandra. Sandra was fabulous and very professional, she talked me through my facial and answered all questions i had. The clinic was very clean with high standards, very friendly and welcoming. I would not hesitate recommending this VIVO Clinic.
Great value, great consultants and very professional. I can't speak highly enough of the service and professionalism I received today from Rebecca. The entire experience, from the moment I walked in, was fantastic.Rebecca was friendly and efficient, and was not only knowledgeable but also took the time to address all my questions and concerns. I was treated by Tini, There was plenty of information she was amazing, she was so knowledgable and very easy to talk to , I was so relaxed I really enjoyed my time there . I even had a discount on the last min treatment ( vaginal tightening ) Highly recommend to anyone. Thank you Vivo I am delighted with the exceptional service and care provided today at Vivo Clinic in Glasgow. Taylor, a highly skilled and experienced consultant, attended to me. She adeptly elucidated the procedures step by step, ensuring my comfort throughout the process. thank you
I was treated by Rebecca in Belfast. As always, she was friendly, patient, informative, and helpful. She took great care to make me feel comfortable throughout and I would absolutely recommend her.
