Wrinkle Relaxers Pre & Post Care Instructions – Saltbox Aesthetics, Dallas, TX

At Saltbox Aesthetics in Dallas, TX, we specialize in wrinkle relaxers including Botox®, Dysport®, Letybo®, and Xeomin®. Our expert injectors help smooth lines and restore a youthful appearance while maintaining natural expression.

Pre-Care Instructions

• To minimize bruising avoid alcohol, aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, and vitamin E for 48 hours before treatment.
• Arrive with clean skin: We understand life is busy. If you have makeup, lotion, or sunscreen on the treatment area, don’t worry—we have makeup wipes at the office and may ask you to remove any product before your treatment.
• You should not receive treatment if you ill, have an active infection, or are pregnant. 

Post-Care Instructions

• Avoid rubbing, massaging, or applying pressure to treated areas for 24 hours.
• Skip strenuous exercise, saunas, or hot yoga for at least 24 hours.
• Makeup may be applied gently after 4 hours.
• Expect mild redness, swelling, or bruising—this typically resolves within days.

Perfection Sessions: After your wrinkle relaxer treatment, please wait 2 full weeks post injection before scheduling. Results settle differently for everyone and can vary between every visit, and we like to give the product ample time to reach full potential.

Medical Charting & Treatment Tracking: We will take photos using our HIPAA-compliant software to track your facial movement and evaluate results and progress for each treatment. This process is also required by our medical supervisor when charting on patients.

Disclaimer: The pre- and post-care instructions listed here cover the most common and important guidelines for your upcoming treatment. They may not include all recommendations specific to your individual care. Please follow any additional instructions provided by your injector.
