Playing Contact Sports after receiving dermal filler treatment. Any suggestions?

simbatheprince
Hi, I am a 24 year old male looking to undergo a dermal filler treatment for my under eyes / tear troughs, from what ive found it is advised not to rub/massage the area for a few days after treatment. After this time is there any risk of contact sports such as Rugby or Wrestling (or even Boxing) moving the dermal filler to a different position of my face or distorting it?
