Is using a massage table face cradle after filler ok?

September 12, 2018
Asked By:VickiAM in Colorado Springs, CO

Will my filler and/or Botox be affected by placing my face in a massage table face cradle for an extended period of time for a body massage (face massage excluded)? I had filler in my cheeks, along my cheekbones, and nasolabial folds, along with Botox in my forehead and crows feet. I’m especially concerned about the amount of pressure that will be placed on my cheekbones by laying face down, and concerned I will have “dents” from the face cradle.
