How to Prepare for Injectable Appointments
Preparing for an injectable appointment is an important step in achieving optimal results. At Renue Aesthetic Surgery in Overland Park, Dr. Perez and our team want you to feel confident, informed, and ready for your treatment. Here are a few tips to guide you through the process!
Planning Your Appointment
Injectables are an exciting way to enhance your natural features. Whether you’re preparing for a special event or simply investing in yourself, timing is key. We recommend scheduling your appointment well in advance to allow for any minor swelling or bruising to resolve, ensuring you look and feel your best.
A Few Days Before Your Appointment:
- Avoid blood-thinning substances unless medically necessary. This includes aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, vitamin E, and alcohol, as they can increase the risk of bruising.
- Stay well-hydrated and maintain a healthy skincare routine with gentle cleansing and moisturizing.
The Day of Your Appointment:
- Arrive with clean skin—no makeup, lotions, or heavy skincare products. (If needed, we have makeup remover wipes available in the office!)
- Eat a normal meal beforehand to help prevent lightheadedness.
- Avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours prior to your visit.
- Be prepared to share the names of any medications or supplements you are currently taking.
General Tips for Best Results:
- Communicate your goals clearly with Dr. Perez. Bringing reference photos can be helpful.
- Avoid scheduling injectables immediately before a major event, as mild swelling or bruising can occur.
- Follow all pre- and post-care instructions provided by Dr. Perez, as recommendations may vary depending on the treatment.
