Do I need to clean lip product applicators more carefully after getting lip filler?

I want to get lip filler but want to make sure I not only keep my lips clean but also my lip product applicators on my lip gloss and balms. Some have a silicone doughnut applicator and others have a metal applicator and others have a usual lip gloss wand you pull out the tube. So do I wipe the wand off on a napkin after every single time I use it , or do I use soap and water rinse and then wait a while for the wand to dry before inserting back into the tube? I have a busy life so waiting on it to dry isn’t practical. Do I even need to wipe the wand if I don’t share with anyone and my lips are clean? Same for the doughnut silicone applicator and a metal tip applicator. How do I clean these and how often. Again I don’t share with anyone and usually clean my lips with antibacterial soap after I eat and wake up so do I even need to clean these and if so how often and with what products? I am attaching applicator exams plea to my post
