OK to Fly after Restylane, Botox

Arnold R. Oppenheim, MD answers: Flying after Botox or Restylane?

I'm coming to florida for 3 weeks and was thinking of having some Botox and Fillers (Restylane) while I was there.  Can I travel by plane immediately after these procedures or is there a 'downtime'?

This was looked  at in study published in one of our journals. In the study, done by a pair of Israeli dermatologists,  there were no adverse events with Botox. I can imagine even less of a problem with fillers.

It would be best to have these procedures done a week before you leave, in case you need a touch up.
