Restylane under eyes and swimming goggles

Question

I'm considering restylane under my eyes for the first time, but also I'm a keen swimmer. I am wondering if wearing goggles will interfere with it, I wear the 'mask' type ones so I don't make my bags even worse, but I am concerned about them sitting on the restylane and maybe displacing it? thanks!

Hi 191725,  I would stay away from pressing on the area injected for the first three days. After that, the displacement of the product or deformation of the product would be less likely.

Ariel Ostad, MD · Answer

Thank you for your
question. After having restylane injections, it’s essential to wait 72 hours
before applying pressure in the specified area. Restylane will not displace as
it is injected into the dermis and is not free floating. After 72 hours, you
will be fine wearing goggles.

Suzanne Kilmer, MD · Answer

That’s definitely a concern –
bring your goggles to your appointment and see what your doctor says and only go
to someone really experienced in under eye Restylane injections.

F. Victor Rueckl, MD (in memoriam) · Answer

We recommend that people don't press hard on fillers for 24 hours. The same would go for swimming goggles that would press on the injected area. "This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and
