  • Use gentle skincare products – avoid strong ingredients like retinoids or acids for a few days.

  • Eating/drinking pineapple can help reduce bruising and swelling.
  • Full results will take up to 2 weeks to settle.
AVOID
  • Touching or applying pressure to treated areas for 24 hours.
  • No make up for 6 hours after treatment.
  • Blood thinners and ibuprofen.
  • Strenuous exercise or activities involving heat (e.g. saunas, tanning beds) for 48 hours. 
  • Smoking or consuming alcohol for at least 24 hours to minimize bruising and swelling.
DO
  • Stay upright for at least 4 hours after treatment.
  • Exercise facial muscles (e.g. smiling, frowning) for up to 48 hours after treatment to help the product settle.
  • Stay hydrated and apply SPF to protect your skin.
  • Gently cleanse your face, avoiding the treated areas for 24 hours.
AVOID
  • Touching, rubbing, or massaging the treated areas for at least 24 hours.

After your Lemon Bottle treatment, follow these aftercare tips to ensure optimal results:
 
  • Stay hydrated – Drink plenty of water to aid fat metabolism and support the detoxification process.
  • Avoid alcohol and caffeine for at least 24 hours, as these can slow down the body’s fat breakdown and affect results.
  • Massage the treated area gently for 5-10 minutes daily to promote lymphatic drainage and reduce swelling.
  • Stick to a healthy diet and lifestyle to enhance and maintain your results over time.
WHAT TO EXPECT
  • Mild swelling, bruising, or redness around the treated area is normal and should subside within a few days.
  • Results can take a few weeks to become noticeable, as the body naturally eliminates the broken-down fat cells.
  • Lumps may form as the fat dissolves but typically resolve on their own over time.
  • Mild discomfort or tenderness in the treated area, which should gradually reduce within a week.
