Initial consultation: listen, assess, recommend

Before any injection, a first meeting assesses your needs and expectations. This step is essential to build trust and a treatment plan suited to your physiology and your goals, whether medical or cosmetic.

During this consultation:

  • The professional reviews your medical history;
  • Your face or your condition is analyzed;
  • Initial photos are taken;
  • Your goals are clarified (relief, rejuvenation, prevention);
  • A treatment plan is drawn up, with the areas to treat;
  • All your questions are welcome.

This step also determines whether injectables are the best option for you, or whether another approach would be better.

The injection procedure: quick, precise, painless

The injection session itself is usually short, 10 to 20 minutes depending on the areas treated, so it can easily be done during the consultation appointment. Thanks to the very fine needles used and the precision of the technique, the treatment is well tolerated. Most patients can return to their activities immediately.

What to expect:

  • The professional gives the injections with great precision;
  • You may feel slight pressure or a pinch, but it is not painful;
  • No bandage is needed.

The treatment is minimally invasive and side effects are usually minor.

After the treatment: advice and gradual results

After the session, you can return to your normal activities, including work. However, it is recommended to avoid certain actions for the first few hours to help the product settle properly.

A few post-injection instructions:

  • Avoid touching or massaging the injected area for 24 hours;
  • Do not lie down or exercise intensely for 4 to 6 hours;
  • Avoid direct exposure to heat (sauna, tanning, etc.).

Results appear gradually between 48 hours and 14 days after the session. The optimal effect is often seen around day 10. Touch-ups, if needed, can be scheduled.

Follow-up and future appointments

Anti-wrinkle injections are a temporary treatment whose effect lasts 3 to 6 months on average. Two weeks after the injections, a follow-up is done to:

  • Assess the results;
  • Adjust the doses or areas if needed;
  • Plan the next sessions according to your long-term goals.

This follow-up helps you keep a natural, balanced result that evolves over time.
