Yes. During the first 48 hours after your treatment, do not massage or rub the treated area. If you have had a lip enhancement, avoid puckering your lips for the first two days after the treatment. Until the initial swelling and redness have resolved, do not expose the treated area to intense heat (e.g. in a sauna or by sunbathing) or extreme cold. What other treatments are typically used along with Restylane? Quite frequently, our patients will also have Botox® injections to soften the dynamic wrinkles caused by movement such as frowning, squinting, or lip pursing. Utilizing both procedures simultaneously results in a smooth, relaxed, and younger appearance.
