Aqualyx Pre-treatment Advice
You may be concerned with having visible signs following Aqualyx treatment. There are a few key steps you can follow to help you minimise visible bruising and swelling and speed up recovery time. The more closely you follow these steps, the faster you will recover and the fewer signs will be visible:
- Avoid any blood thinners (e.g. alcohol, aspirin, Vitamin E, some herbal preparations and supplements) for 2 days prior to and 2 days after treatment. Thin blood results in increased risk of bruising, so help minimise bruising risk by avoiding anything that can thin your blood.
- Take arnica tablets as follows: 2 tablets every 2 hours for 5 days prior to the treatment. The 30c potency are best.
- You may wish to purchase Arnica cream and a compression garment as mentioned in the aftercare section PRIOR to your treatment to avoid a visit the chemist after treatment.
