How Long to Use Ice Pack After Restylane?
I had restylane injection in the early afternoon. should i use ice pack?
When to cool the skin.
Thanks for your question. Cool compresses (not ice cubes) can be effective after injectables to decrease swelling. However, in our San Francisco office, we use a cool compress prior to injection to constrict the blood vessels and improve comfort. We have found this to be a very effective technique to reduce possible complications and improve patient comfort. I hope this helps.
