Radiesse In Jaw. When can I sleep on my side?

It is advised to avoid sleeping on your side for at least a week after receiving Radiesse filler injections, as this can cause the filler to shift and impact the treatment results. Radiesse remains moldable for up to two weeks post-injection, and pressure on the treated area can reduce its effectiveness. To help minimize swelling and avoid pressure on the treated areas, sleep on your back with your head elevated on pillows.

Thanks for your question. If your Radiesse was injected by an experienced, board-certified cosmetic dermatologist, there is no reason to think the filler will migrate if you sleep on your side. Ideally, it would be optimal to avoid pressure on it for three days, either by sleeping on your back or folding your pillow when on your side so that there is minimal pressure on the jawline. Keep in mind that side-sleeping tends to increase wrinkle production in the face overall, so it is best to try to sleep on your back. Hope this helps!

Hi, Thank you for your question!
This is not something you should be worried about since Radiesse (filler) shouldn't move. If you would like to be worry free, I suggest to go back to your regular sleeping position in 3-4 days after the filler was injected. I recommend to see the expert who injected you for further information. Best of luck!
