Can I do face exercises after getting face fillers?

Question

Hi all! I’m planning to get a few fillers in my cheek, under eye, and nasolabial folds. I also do a routine of facial yoga/face exercises to keep my face tight and plump(yes it works!) These exercises include things like isolating and contracting undereye or cheek muscles to keep them tight and lifted. I have done these for years, but is there a chance that contracting my facial muscles would dislodge the filler (voluma or restylane) and could it cause the filler to migrate badly? Thanks!

Hi @AnnaKN. Yes, you can do facial exercises after you have fillers. The exercises will not dislodge the fillers. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

Thank you for your question. You can resume facial exercises but I'm not sure it will stop the facial aging process. However, if you choose to do so it should not affect the fillers.

doing exercises after receiving facial fillers will not dislodge the filler, but the motion will accelerate the breakdown of the filler, so you will need them more often

Thank you for your question. Yes, you can do facial exercises after you have fillers. Once they are in place, they do not easily migrate. Please contact your provider if you have any concerns. I hope this helps.

I recommend patients wait 24 hours before engaging any exercise that causes facial heat and sweating on face.  If there is any excess swelling or bruising then stick with walking till that resolves.Better safe than sorry ie. doing something that may prolong resolution.
Thanks and good luck.
