Bruising! Not ideal, we know… but it can be part of the process.
During medical aesthetic treatments, our Registered Nurses use needles to pierce the skin, so bruising is always a possibility. We definitely don’t want to bruise you, but sometimes it happens. If/when it does, your skin simply needs a little time and TLC to heal.
There are a few things you can do to help minimise your risk of bruising, including avoiding aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil and alcohol in the 48 hours before treatment, where medically appropriate.
Some medications and supplements can also increase your tendency to bruise, so always let your nurse know what medications and supplements you take before your appointment.
A little bruising can be frustrating, but it’s usually temporary.
