Aftercare guide
Choose the type of treatment you received to see the usual course of recovery and what to watch for. This is general guidance — the instructions you received at consultation come first.
Ultrasound lifting
Energy is delivered to the SMAS layer without breaking the skin surface, so you can return to daily life the same day. The change follows the pace of collagen renewal and appears gradually.

- Days 2–3A pressed, achy feeling may remain. If chewing is uncomfortable, avoid hard foods for a while.
- Weeks 1–2Swelling and tingling usually settle. Photos from this period are too early to judge the change.
- Months 2–3Collagen rebuilds and the change becomes clearer. This is when the result is assessed.

- Rubbing or massaging the treated area firmly — for 1 week
