Is it okay to fly the day after injectables in frown lines?

Question

I will be traveling to my hometown to get filler. Frown lines (which I have had done before) and possibly in the under eye area tear trough (which I have never had). Will flying back the same day or the day after be a problem? Sorry if that's a dumb question. I was just wondering because I am a person who experiences pretty bad ear pain when elevation levels change during a flight. Thank you for your answers!

Thanks for the question. You should be able to flying a couple of days after your surgery. If any unexpected incident happens in your treatment process, this time can be extended or shortened. I wish you all the best.

I can’t think of a reason you shouldn’t fly after filler or neurotoxin.  You may have mild swelling or bruising, but you should be fine.

Hey thanks for your question. You should not have any problems with traditional airline travel after receiving facial filler. Cover up any bruising with makeup.  Show off your rejuvenated look after getting the filler, smile lots!!

There is no issue regarding flying after receiving injectables.  It should have no effect on results and there are no safety concerns.

Yes, you can fly after getting demal fillers without any problem. Any injectable can cause bruising and swelling even after discontinuing asprin products 7 days prior. If you have any bruising, you can conceal it with make-up.
