Frequently Asked Questions
- Schedule your appointment at least 2 weeks prior to a special occasion or event, such as a wedding or a vacation, due to the risk of bruising and swelling post-treatment.
- Arnica tablets can be taken 1 week prior to your treatment if you wish to help prevent and minimise bruising post-treatment.
- Avoid anti-inflammatory/blood thinning medications 5-7 days prior to treatment. (Unless medically directed to take these by your GP or specialist). Medications such as Aspirin, Vitamin E, Omega 3/Fish Oil Supplements, Ibuprofen, Advil, and other NSAIDS have a blood thinning effect and can increase the risk of bruising, bleeding and swelling after treatments.
- If you have a history of cold sores and are having treatment around the mouth area, we recommend taking antiviral tablets either the day prior to treatment or on the day of treatment to reduce the chances of you developing a cold sore post-treatment. (These can be purchased over the counter at a pharmacy/chemist with no script usually required).
- Reschedule your appointment at least 24 hours in advance if you are feeling unwell or have an active infection.
- Avoid vigorous physical activity or any large intakes of alcohol 24 hours prior to your treatment as this increases the risk of bruising.
- Avoid alcohol and strenuous exercise for 24 hours post-treatment.
- Avoid rubbing/touching the treated area until the morning after treatment.
- Avoid applying makeup to the treated area for 24 hours post-treatment unless using Oxygenetix.

(Oxygenetix is available to purchase in the clinic)
- Immediately following your jawline contour treatment, swelling, tenderness, and slight redness or bruising may present. This is a normal response and will eventually subside after a few days to a couple of weeks. Bruise-eze cream can be applied to help the healing process and is available to purchase in the clinic.
- LED light therapy can be added to your treatment to accelerate your healing, minimise your downtime and enhance your results. Red LED light therapy is available in clinics and can also be added to your treatment for an additional cost.
- To help reduce swelling and bruising, you may apply ice or a cold washer to the treated area on and off for up to 48 hours following treatment.

- Avoid skin treatments, including waxing, facials, lasers, and chemical peels, for two weeks post-treatment.
- You may feel some lumps for up to two weeks following your treatments as your body adjusts to the new volume and the product softens and starts to integrate into the tissue. You can gently massage the area if you feel any lumps or contact Aesthetics by Maddy-Jane if concerned.
- It is recommended to avoid extended exposure to sun or UV light and extreme hot or cold temperatures, including hot foods and drinks if your lips have been treated. Avoid facial laser treatment to the treated area for up to two weeks.
- The results and longevity of this treatment can be enhanced by using medical-grade skincare. For product recommendations, please contact Aesthetics by Maddy-Jane or ask while in the clinic.
- Arrive at your appointment make-up free. Avoid heavy exercise, drinking alcohol and smoking on the day of your appointment. Reschedule if you are feeling unwell.

Muscle relaxing treatments begin to work within 3-5 days reaching maximum effect after 14 days. The effect from muscle relaxing treatments lasts a few months, gradually wearing off from around 2 months onwards. It is advisable to repeat the anti-wrinkle treatments every 3 months to achieve the best results otherwise the full effects will usually wear off after 4-6 months depending on the dose used and the area treated. The longevity of any product varies significantly between persons as a result of differences in metabolism, diet & exercise routines, general health, medications & supplements and of course, the amount of product used.
Individual needs vary, and the amount of product required for optimal results depends on factors such as volume loss and muscle strength. During the consultation prior to treatment, we'll discuss your specific requirements, and lifestyle factors will also be taken into consideration. Achieving the desired results may involve multiple treatments, ensuring a tailored approach to meet your unique expectations.
Muscle relaxing side effects are generally mild and can be treated effectively with paracetamol and topical agents or just waiting for them to pass. Muscle relaxing treatments may result in a headache, some swelling and redness at the treated area, slight bruising and tenderness at the injection point, minor bleeding at the injection site and people may experience some dizziness or nausea. It is recommended to follow your aftercare instructions and if experiencing any concerns to contact Aesthetics by Maddy-Jane.
Achieving desired results is possible with strategically placed muscle relaxing treatments. This treatment targets a specific area just in front of the ear, focusing on the masseter muscle responsible for creating width and bulk. While a strong and defined jawline is favored in males, it may be too robust for the desired feminine profile in females.
Excessive activity in chewing muscles often leads to bruxism or tension in the jawline, causing headaches, teeth grinding, and jaw pain. Muscle Relaxing Treatments are an effective solution to significantly alleviate the symptoms of bruxism.
Around 25% of patients experiencing headaches may also exhibit an overactive temporalis muscle in the temples.
While there are many products on the market, here at Aesthetics by Maddy-Jane we pride ourselves on using only the top quality, premium TGA approved products for our clients. Due to TGA guidelines we are unable to advertise the particular products used, however during your consultation we will be able to provide you with full product details.
You can pay via Afterpay, ZipPay, cash or EFTPOS.
