I was wondering when it would be ok to workout again, as well as is it ok to go into a sauna/steam room/tanning bed? if not, how long will i have to wait? Thanks!

Answer: Dermal fillers and activities Unless your activities involve sustained pressure on the injected areas you should not change your routine after filler injections. The only theoretical problems could be related to very high physical stress that may pre-dispose to non-life threatening bleeding due to increased pressure. If you are very concerned and routinely subject yourself to very heavy exertions than you could wait several hours. This recommendations has no support I could quote, however. If I recommend 2 days it would imply 48 hrs although 41 hrs or 37 could be just as effective considering the mechanism of clotting. In this case, just use common sense and your decision will be as valid as these recommendations. BTW. tanning bed is contraindicated. Not because of the filler but potential for a long term skin damage. Good luck!
