Dermal Filler Care Instructions
To make sure you get the most out of your dermal filler treatment, follow these simple pre- and post-care steps. They can help minimize any side effects and keep your complexion looking fabulous.
Pre-Care Instructions
- Avoid consuming alcohol and do not use Retinol-based products (including those with vitamin A and C) 3 days before your appointment.
- Discontinue Omega-3 and Vitamin E supplements, NSAIDs, and anticoagulants 7 days prior.
- Let us know if you have any viral skin conditions such as Herpes Simplex Virus.
Post-Care Instructions
- Avoid blood thinners, NSAIDs, alcohol, excessive sun exposure, and physical exertion for 2 days.
- Apply ice packs 15 to 30 minutes at a time to reduce discomfort.
- Do not apply makeup for 24 hours.
- Adhere to specific post-treatment instructions given during your appointment.
- Avoid intense heat (including hot tubs, saunas, sunbathing, or tanning) for 48 hours after.
Our Filler Options
We offer Juvederm and Restylane for our dermal filler in New Canaan. Both are hyaluronic acid-based fillers, but they have unique formulations that serve different areas of the face best. Juvederm offers a smooth, supple finish to regions with high movement. On the other hand, Restylane works well for adding structure to areas that require less flexibility.

I LOVE Intentional Self Aesthetics! Dr. Alessio and her team are kind, helpful, and very knowledgeable with great bedside manners. I received my very first chemical peel from them. Holly and Dr. Teresa listened to my concerns and answered all of my "what if" questions with patience and kindness. The results of my peel were fantastic. I received many compliments on my skin -- people said I was glowing, that I looked great or beautiful, etc. And no, I didn't ask for those compliments -- they were freely given! :D Intentional Self Aesthetics is where I will be receiving all of my medical beauty treatments here on out. Thank you to the wonderful team!

Got the face peel four days ago and I am surprised how great I still feel! I almost fell asleep during it because of how comfortable I was and it was done before I knew it.
