However, the biggest influencing factor is the post-operative conditioning. There are many things you need to pay attention to after getting a face-slimming injection. You should be aware that you should not do facial massage, hot compress, or rubbing within one month after the injection. Avoid eating hard-shelled foods after the injection.
