How long after getting a face-lift injection can I put on makeup

After getting a face-slimming injection, there are many things you need to pay attention to, such as not eating spicy or irritating foods, foods that cause dark pigmentation, not smoking or drinking, not washing your face immediately, not putting on makeup immediately, etc. This can avoid irritation to the wound and better ensure the effect of face-slimming. However, you can do these things as long as the wound has healed. So, how long after the face-slimming injection can you put on makeup?

1. How long after the face-lift injection can I put on makeup?

Generally, you can put on makeup one week after the face-slimming injection and wait for the wound to heal naturally. However, if you do not recover well within one week after the injection and the redness and swelling on your face have not completely disappeared, then you should not put on makeup for one week after the injection. Next, let’s take a look at the reasons why you can’t wear makeup after a face-slimming injection.

2. Why can’t you put on makeup after face-lift injection?

1. Cosmetics can irritate wounds

It is best not to wear makeup for one month after getting a face-slimming injection, because the wound does not heal immediately, and it is easy to bring the pigment and powder in the cosmetics into the unhealed wound when putting on makeup, causing infection after the face-slimming injection, thereby prolonging the recovery time of the face-slimming injection.

2. Makeup removal can easily lead to infection

Don't put on makeup immediately after a face-slimming injection. Another important reason is that the surgical area cannot be exposed to water within one week after the injection. After putting on makeup, we need to use makeup remover and clean water to remove the makeup, which is contrary to the maintenance after the face-slimming injection. Therefore, you cannot put on makeup immediately after a face-slimming injection.

3. What should you pay attention to when putting on makeup after face-lift injection?

1. Apply gently

You can put on makeup one week after the face-slimming injection, but you have to be gentle when applying makeup. This is because the face is still in the recovery period within one week after the injection, and applying makeup vigorously will excessively rub the facial skin and affect the effect of the face-slimming injection. Therefore, in order to achieve the best face-slimming effect after the face-slimming injection, we should try to be gentle when using skin care products and washing our face.

2. Avoid wounds when applying makeup

When applying makeup one week after a face-slimming injection, you should be careful to avoid previous wounds. This is because some people's wounds have poor self-healing abilities. If you apply makeup a month later, the cosmetics can easily "take advantage of the opportunity" and enter the wound area of ​​the skin, which can easily lead to infection due to improper care after the face-slimming injection.

3. Be careful to remove makeup thoroughly

You can put on makeup one week after you have fully recovered from the face-slimming injection. However, be sure to use a low-irritation makeup remover to remove it thoroughly to prevent cosmetic residues from entering the skin pores and affecting the effect of the face-slimming injection. If you only use simple foundation or waterproof sunscreen and isolation cream, you also need to be careful to use makeup remover to remove them in time, because the ingredients of these cosmetics can easily cause residue and cause pores to clog.
