Preparation before and after Dolly Eye injections

What is Dolly Eye filler injection?

Dolly Eye filler injection is a type of cosmetic enhancement in which a specialist doctor will inject a filler called hyaluronic acid into the orbicularis oculi muscle, which is the muscle at the lower eyelid, to make the lower eyelid thicker, making the eyes look bigger, sweeter, and brighter, as well as making the deep wrinkles under the eyes shallower, etc. Before each injection, you should see a doctor so that the doctor can assess the amount of filler to be used each time.

Guidelines for conduct before getting Dolly Eye injections (1 week before the procedure)

Preparing before getting Dolly Eye injections is important because it helps reduce side effects after the injections. The most common side effect is bruising. This is because injecting Dolly Eye filler under the eyes, where there are many blood vessels, is more at risk of bruising than in other areas. If you prepare according to the doctor's advice before the procedure, you can reduce the chances of bruising. The preparation is as follows:

  • Consult a doctor before receiving Dolly Eye injections so that the doctor can assess your symptoms and the amount of filler used in the injections.
  • Inform the doctor of any history of drug allergies, food allergies, surgical history, chronic diseases, and medication history in detail. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, you must also inform the doctor.
  • Stop taking supplements, herbs that affect blood clotting, aspirin painkillers, and NSAIDS 1 week before Dolly Eye injection. If it is a regular medicine prescribed by a doctor, do not stop taking it yourself. Consult the doctor who prescribed the medicine before stopping it.
  • Avoid topical medications that cause skin cell turnover in the area where Dolly Eyes will be injected for approximately 1 week prior to the injection.
  • Before getting Dolly Eye injections, avoid drinking any type of alcohol and stop smoking.
  • Avoid activities that cause blood to pump, such as exercises that use large muscles, such as running or swimming.
  • People who are suffering from infectious diseases or people who have skin inflammation in the area where the filler will be injected, including those who are pregnant and breastfeeding, should not get Dolly Eye injections.
  • You should avoid washing your hair, wearing makeup, and wearing contact lenses on the day of your Dolly Eye injection.

Guidelines for after Dolly Eye injections

Self-care after Dolly Eye filler injections is equally important to ensure lasting results. The self-care steps are as follows:

  • Drink plenty of water as it will help reduce swelling faster. Water will help the filler to become more swollen and to integrate well with the skin.
  • Avoid massaging, pressing, or kneading the area under the eyes where Dolly Eye injections were performed. 
  • Avoid applying cold compresses by yourself because sometimes applying cold compresses can prevent the filler from sticking to the skin and may press too hard, causing the filler to move. At the same time, avoid applying hot compresses because it can cause the filler to break down quickly.
  • Avoid heat, sunlight, or activities in the sun for the first 14 days after injection, such as saunas, eating hot food in front of a hot stove, etc.  
  • Avoid washing your face or scrubbing your face hard for 7 days.
  • Avoid laser treatment for at least 1 month after Dolly Eye injections because the heat from the laser will cause the filler to dissolve quickly.  
  • Avoid strenuous exercise during the first 2 weeks as this may cause the injection area to swell more.
  • Avoid drinking alcohol and smoking for 14 days after the injection.
  • Avoid eating certain foods that will affect the filler, such as spicy foods, pickled foods, and semi-cooked foods.

FAQ

After getting Dolly Eye injections, can I wear makeup?
