Achieving beautiful, youthful, and balanced facial esthetics is just the first step—maintaining your results is just as important! Whether you’ve had Botox, dermal fillers, PDO threads, skin boosters, or microneedling, proper aftercare and ongoing maintenance treatments will keep your skin glowing and your enhancements looking their best.
At Beyond Smiles, we recommend a customized maintenance plan tailored to your specific treatments and skin needs. In this guide, we’ll cover how often to schedule touch-ups, the best skincare products (including SkinMedica), and lifestyle tips to prolong your results.
How Often Should You Maintain Your Facial Esthetic Treatments?
Each treatment has its own duration and recommended touch-up schedule to keep results looking natural and fresh
Best Skincare Routine to Maintain Your Results
A high-quality skincare regimen helps prolong the effects of facial esthetic treatments while keeping your skin healthy, hydrated, and youthful.
Medical-Grade Skincare for Long-Term Maintenance
Using medical-grade skincare ensures that your skin receives scientifically backed ingredients that promote collagen production, hydration, and protection.
- Top SkinMedica Products for Maintenance:
- SkinMedica TNS Advanced+ Serum – A powerful growth factor serum that boosts collagen, reduces wrinkles, and improves skin tone.
- SkinMedica HA5 Rejuvenating Hydrator – Maximizes hydration and prolongs filler results by supporting the skin’s natural hyaluronic acid.
- SkinMedica Retinol Complex 0.5 or 1.0 – Boosts cell turnover and enhances Botox/filler effects by keeping the skin smooth and firm.
- SkinMedica Lumivive System – Protects against blue light, pollution, and environmental stressors, keeping skin healthy and radiant.
- Investing in quality skincare helps extend the life of your facial esthetic treatments while improving overall skin texture and health.
Hydration & Collagen Support for Longevity
- Drink plenty of water to maintain skin elasticity and hydration.
- Take a collagen-boosting supplement to support PDO threads, fillers, and skin boosters.
- Use a hydrating face mask weekly to lock in moisture and enhance skin healing.
- Recommended Product: Collagen Peptide Powder – Supports skin elasticity, hydration, and anti-aging benefits.
Sun Protection: The #1 Anti-Aging Rule
- Wear SPF 50+ daily, even on cloudy days.
- Reapply sunscreen every 2 hours if outdoors.
- Avoid excessive sun exposure, as UV rays break down Botox, fillers, and collagen production.
- Recommended Product: SkinMedica Essential Defense SPF 50 – Provides broadspectrum sun protection without clogging pores.
Regular Professional Skin Treatments
- Medical-Grade Facials – Keeps skin clean, hydrated, and glowing.
- Microneedling or RF Microneedling – Enhances collagen production for long-term anti-aging benefits.
- Chemical Peels – Exfoliates dead skin, improving overall texture and prolonging Botox/filler results.
- Scheduling a professional skin treatment every 4-6 weeks optimizes your results.
- Recommended Product: SkinMedica AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser – Gently removes dead skin cells to maintain smooth, radiant skin.
How to Extend the Life of Botox & Fillers
- Avoid excessive facial movements (chewing gum, drinking through straws) to prevent filler breakdown.
- Use a silk pillowcase to minimize pressure on treated areas while sleeping.
- Limit alcohol and salty foods to reduce swelling and prevent excessive filler migration.
- Incorporate a retinol-based night cream to support skin renewal and elasticity.
- Recommended Product: SkinMedica Retinol Complex – Promotes cell turnover and keeps skin smooth post-Botox.
How to Maintain PDO Thread Lift Results
- Continue collagen stimulation treatments (microneedling, PRP, or skin boosters) to maintain skin firmness.
- Sleep on your back for the first few weeks to avoid thread displacement.
- Avoid excessive facial strain (chewing hard foods, vigorous workouts) for 2 weeks post-procedure.
- Take a collagen supplement to support long-term lift and skin integrity.
- Recommended Product: Silicone Wrinkle Patches – Helps prevent new fine lines from forming post-PDO threads.
Lifestyle Habits to Prolong Facial Esthetic Results
- Eat a nutrient-rich diet with plenty of antioxidants (berries, leafy greens, healthy fats).
- Exercise regularly to boost circulation and maintain healthy skin tone.
- Reduce stress levels—chronic stress can accelerate aging and affect Botox longevity.
- Prioritize sleep—cell regeneration happens during deep sleep, helping to prolong results.
- Recommended Product: Magnesium Glycinate Supplement – Helps promote relaxation, reduce stress, and support deep sleep for optimal skin repair.
