Just had hyaluronidase injected to dissolve some Juvaderm and I'm wondering if I'm allowed to ice the area to help prevent swelling?

Answer: Icing after Hyaluronidase Often the hyaluronidase is mixed with lidocaine which numbs the injected area. Icing is usually safe once this numbing wears off. At our clinic, we recomend wrapppping ice in a thin, clean dishtowel before placing on the skin. If any questions, check with the clinic where you had the procedure done. Good luck, Dr. Vargas

Answer: Vitrase Hyaluronidase - Ice pack after hyaluronidase in lips? Generally yes but you should speak with your PS to discuss the specifics of your care.If you do apply ice, make sure that it's wrapped in something to prevent a burn (actually, "frostbite") of the treated areas, which may be numb and more susceptible to thermal injury (in either direction). So the better way to do this is probably something like frozen peas wrapped in a washcloth, etc.But touch base with your PS to be sure before doing anything.I hope that this helps and good luck,Dr. Alan EnglerMember of #RealSelf100
