The treatment area will e cleansed thoroughly and may apply a numbing cream to ensure your comfort. During the injection process, the practitioner will mark the injection sites for precision and then administer the skin booster using a fine needle or cannula. After the injections, ice packs may be applied to minimize swelling, and you will receive detailed aftercare instructions. A follow-up appointment will be scheduled to assess the results.

Immediately after your treatment, you might experience some redness, swelling, or tenderness in the treated area. These are normal and usually fade within a few days.
