Is it safe to get Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy if I have Restylane and Voluma in my face?

Question

Is it safe to get Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy if I have Restylane and Voluma in my face? I've heard that HBOT can help with nerve damage.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question, Volume and contouring of the cheeks can be created with well-placed fillers (Voluma, Radiesse, Bellafill) and Sculptra. Implants or fat are alternatives. Botox and radiofrequency can help slim and contour the jawline. Liposuction can help slim the face. Ultherapy, J Plasma and RF treatments can provide skin tightening and lift. I would recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

HBOT is safe and it helps with wound healing in general. Not a contraindication if you have fillers in your face.

Anna Toker, MD, FACS · Answer

If you wait a couple weeks after injection hyperbaric oxygen likely will not interfere with the filler itself. Typically these fillers are stable snd well set inthe tissue in a 2 week period of time so that even physical manipulation will not dislodge them. Make sure the physician doing the treatment is aware you have these fillers and when they were injected. This way, the areas injected can be monitored to ensure no unusual effect is happening.
