This aftercare guide provides essential instructions to follow after receiving biotin injections. Proper aftercare will help enhance results and minimise potential complications.

AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS

1. Rest & Hydration

• Stay hydrated and rest for at least 24 hours after your injection to aid absorption and recovery.

2. Physical Activity

• Avoid strenuous exercise or any excessive physical activity for 24 hours to allow your body to heal.

3. Alcohol & Caffeine

• Reduce alcohol and caffeine intake for 48 hours, as they may interfere with biotin absorption and cause dehydration.

4. Injection Site Care

• Keep the area clean and dry for 24 hours.

• Avoid applying creams, lotions, or makeup to the injection site.

• If redness or irritation occurs, apply a cold compress for relief.

5. Pain Management

• If needed, take acetaminophen (paracetamol) or ibuprofen for mild discomfort.

• Avoid aspirin, as it may increase bruising.

6. Monitor for Adverse Reactions

• Watch for signs of infection or allergic reaction, such as:

  • Persistent redness, swelling, pain, or discharge at the injection site.

  • Severe itching or rash.

• If you experience any of these symptoms, contact your healthcare provider immediately.

7. Follow-Up Appointments

• Attend all scheduled follow-up visits to track progress and discuss any concerns.

8. Nutrition for Optimal Results
