First time using botox around the eyes and I'm an avid swimmer. It's been about 5 days. Is swimming fine?
Answer: Swimming after Botox
I recommend that our patients avoid lying down or exercising for about 4 hours after injections with Botox. This prevents the Botox from migrating out of the intended area of treatment. After that initial downtime our patients can resume normal activity including swimming.

Answer: Swimming following Botox injections
After 5 days, it is perfectly ok to engage in physical activity. This includes swimming. Any physical restrictions following Botox injections are based on how the patient feels.
In general, it is important to avoid:
1) Ibuprofen
2) NSAIDS
3) Vitamin E
4) Fish oil
They may increase the likelihood of bruising after the injections due to thinning of the blood. Thanks and I hope this helps!

Answer: I limit exercise for 24 hours.
I recommend you ask your injecting physician what they advise. However, I only restrict my patients for a day. You should be fine at this point.
