How to Maintain Hydration for Youthful Skin After Aesthetic Injectable Treatments

Aesthetic injectable treatments, like dermal fillers and anti-wrinkle injections, can work wonders to enhance your natural beauty and rejuvenate your appearance. At Nic+Co Aesthetics, we understand that achieving youthful skin isn’t just about the treatments it’s also about maintaining your skin’s health after the procedure. One key to glowing, youthful skin is hydration. Here’s how you can keep your skin hydrated and radiant post-treatment.

Why Is Hydration Important Post-Treatment?

Injectables often work by adding volume and smoothing fine lines, but hydration is essential to complement these effects. Proper hydration:

• Enhances the longevity of treatments like dermal fillers.

• Boosts skin elasticity and radiance.

• Supports the healing process.

• Reduces the risk of dryness or irritation after the procedure.

Tips for Maintaining Hydration

1. Drink Plenty of Water

This is the simplest yet most effective way to hydrate your skin. Aim for at least 8 glasses of water daily, and consider increasing your intake if you consume dehydrating beverages like coffee or alcohol.

2. Use a Hydrating Skincare Routine

Invest in high-quality, hydrating products to nourish your skin (to be used as advised by post care advice ):

• Hyaluronic Acid Serum: This powerhouse ingredient attracts and locks in moisture.

• Moisturizer: Opt for one that suits your skin type and provides long-lasting hydration.

• SPF: A broad-spectrum sunscreen protects against moisture loss caused by UV exposure.

3. Avoid Dehydrating Activities

Reduce habits that strip your skin of moisture, such as:

• Over-washing with hot water.

• Spending excessive time in air-conditioned or heated environments.

• Using harsh exfoliants immediately after your treatment.

4. Incorporate a Healthy Diet

Foods rich in water, antioxidants, and healthy fats promote skin hydration:

• Hydrating Foods: Cucumbers, watermelon, and celery.

• Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Found in salmon, walnuts, and flaxseeds.

• Antioxidant-Rich Fruits and Veggies: Blueberries, spinach, and avocado.

5. Consider Professional Hydration Boosters

Nic and Co Aesthetics offers advanced treatments to amplify hydration:

• Skin Boosters: These injectables deliver hyaluronic acid directly into the skin for deep hydration.

What to Avoid Post-Treatment

To protect your skin and ensure maximum hydration:

• Avoid alcohol and caffeine for the first 24-48 hours.

• Stay away from intense exercise and heat exposure, like saunas or hot showers.

• Refrain from using new or aggressive skincare products during the initial healing period.
