Yes! Here are several ways to minimize bruising after under-eye filler:
Before Treatment:
- Avoid Blood Thinners: Discuss any medications or supplements (e.g., aspirin, fish oil) with your doctor in case they need to be paused beforehand.
- Arnica Montana: Some patients find taking oral arnica or applying it topically helps reduce bruising.
- Hydrate: Staying well-hydrated supports the healing process.
After Treatment:
- Ice Packs: Apply ice wrapped in a thin cloth for 10-15 minutes at a time to reduce swelling and bruising.
- Head Elevation: Sleep with your head slightly elevated to reduce swelling.
- Avoid Strenuous Activity: Skip the gym for the first 24-48 hours to minimize blood flow to the area.
- Patience: Bruising usually fades within a few days to a week.
