How bad is it if you accidentally roll onto your face when sleeping after Botox and fillers? I’m worried I moved it (Photo)

Asked By:bangel10 in Sacramento, California

I received Botox injections and fillers yesterday, and made sure I didn’t lay down for at least 6 hours. I was a bit paranoid to sleep, because I usually will roll onto my face.I woke up with my face smooshed into my pillow, applying pressure on the injection spots. I’m worried I messed up the filler, and now above my eyebrow where the Botox was injected is a dime size lump. Not sure if that’s from inflammation, or because the pressure from sleeping on it.It’s so hard for me to sleep on my back.
