Post-Treatment Care

Filler Dissolve (Hyaluronidase)

Thank you for choosing ROXSpa for your filler dissolve treatment! To ensure optimal results and a smooth recovery, please follow these aftercare guidelines carefully.

Immediately After Treatment

  • Expect mild swelling, redness, or bruising — This is common and will usually subside within a few hours to a couple of days.
  • Ice packs can help — Apply a cold compress for 10-15 minutes at a time to reduce swelling and discomfort.
  • Avoid touching or massaging the treated areas — This allows the dissolved filler to leave the area without disturbance.

First 24-48 Hours

  • Avoid strenuous exercise or excessive sweating — Heat and physical activity can increase swelling and bruising.
  • Do not apply makeup or skincare products — Let the treated area breathe and heal naturally for the first 24 hours.
  • No facials or intense skin treatments — Give your skin time to recover before scheduling other aesthetic treatments.
  • Use SPF 30+ daily — Protect your skin from sun exposure as it is more sensitive after the procedure.

Days 3-7: Healing Phase

  • Mild swelling and bruising may persist — This is normal and will gradually resolve.
  • Keep the treated area clean and hydrated — Use a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer to support healing.
  • Do not massage the treated area — Avoid putting pressure on the area to ensure the filler continues to dissolve properly.
  • Resume normal activities — After the first 48 hours, you can return to your regular skincare routine and gentle activities, but avoid direct sun exposure.

After 1 Week & Beyond

  • Reassess your results — If necessary, a follow-up appointment will be scheduled to ensure all filler has been properly dissolved.
  • Maintain a gentle skincare routine — Reintroduce active ingredients (retinoids, AHAs, etc.) only once healing is complete, and always protect your skin with SPF.
  • Consider a filler touch-up — If you still wish to enhance facial volume, a new dermal filler treatment can be done after the area is fully healed.
