Distance Running After Dysport, Safe?

Question

I run 6-8 miles almost everyday and had my first Dysport injection yesterday. If I run 8 miles 24 hours after my treatment, should I be worried about anything?

Matthew Richardson, MD · Answer

I tell my patients not to do any strenuous activity for the rest of the day of the injections.  I see no issues with running 24 hours after an injection of Dysport, but I would advise speaking with the doctor who performed your injections with any questions or concerns that you might have as every injector has their own recommendations.All the best,

Sam Naficy, MD, FACS · Answer

I would not recommend any strenuous exercise within the first 24 hours of receiving Dysport.  After this time period, you should be fine.

Sonia Badreshia-Bansal, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question. The usual recommendation is no vigorous exercise for the first 24 hrs. You should be fine to do your daily activities after this time period. Be certain to be under the supervision of a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon with expertise in injectables for the safest and most effective treatments. I hope this helps.

As long as you are not experiencing any side effects from the injections, running the following day should be fine. I would recommend speaking with your physician regarding his or her guidelines. Thank you and good luck!

We advise anyone having a service delivered with injections to the face including Dysport not to exercise until the next day. Aside from that we have no physical restrictions regarding exercise. Patients have not had any issues.

Dennis Gross, MD · Answer

Running 24 hours after treatment is totally fine. I always advise my patients to work out prior to getting any injectables and waiting at least 24 hours until exercising.

It is usually safe to do any kind of exercise as long as you wait 24 hours after the dysport was injected. However, it is best to always consult with your prescribing physician or injector with any questions.

If administered properly, exercising should not be an issue after receiving Dysport or Botox.

Donna Bilu Martin, MD · Answer

There are no issues with exercising the day after receiving Botox or Dysport, assuming there are no problems from the treatment.  Remember to wear sunscreen outdoors....!

Mark Morgan, MD · Answer

In our practice, we recommend for patients to refrain from physical activity for a minimum of 4 hours following treatment of Botox, Xeomin and Dysport. You should have no issues the following day, assumming no headaches or other symptoms. Enjoy your run!
