Why should you avoid alcohol after dermal fillers?

It is generally recommended to avoid alcohol after a dermal filler treatment. Drinking alcohol may:

• Increase redness and swelling at the injection sites

• Raise the likelihood of bruising

• Affect blood circulation, which may slow the healing process

• Slightly increase the chance of the filler shifting from the intended area

To help support optimal results and reduce potential side effects, it is advisable to avoid alcohol for 24 to 48 hours after treatment. Your practitioner may provide personalised aftercare guidance based on your treatment.
