Proper aftercare is crucial for achieving the best possible results from your Sculptra treatment. Here’s what you need to know:
- The 5-5-5 Rule: This is the most important part of your post-Sculptra routine:
- Massage: Gently massage each treated area.
- 5 Minutes: Perform the massage for 5 minutes.
- 5 Times Daily: Repeat the massage 5 times per day for the next 5 days following your treatment.
- Why Massage Matters: This massage helps distribute the Sculptra evenly beneath your skin, minimizing the risk of bumps or nodules and promoting optimal collagen stimulation.
Other Aftercare Tips
- Ice: Applying ice packs gently to treated areas can help reduce swelling and discomfort.
- Sun Protection: Be diligent about wearing sunscreen, as your skin may be more sensitive.
- Avoid Strenuous Activity: Wait at least 24 hours before engaging in intense exercise.
- Follow-up: Attend any recommended follow-up appointments with your provider at House of Aesthetics Huntington Beach.
