Resuming Normal Routines After Botox and Juvederm?

Good question! It is usually fine to resume full activities following
injections of Botox and Juvederm. I have not seen any problems post injections, but I would avoid rubbing the injected area for a day (just to be
extra cautious.) I also use a more concentrated dosage of Botox on my patients to avoid any possibility of migration. I hope you find this useful.

I allow my patients to resume normal day-day-day activities immediately after Botox and Filler injections. I ask them to avoid strenuous activity or vigorous exercise for at least 24 hours after the treatment. This helps to minimize swelling/bruising as well as the unwanted potential for neuromodulator spread. This is advice I give to my patients, please discuss with your expert injector first though.

Patients can resume most activities after an injectable treatment. However, I tell patients to wait 48 hours to resume rigorous exercise to prevent potential side effects. This procedure should only be performed by an experienced, board-certified injector to ensure an optimal outcome from your treatment.

Hi and thank you for your question. It is best to avoid exercise for 48 hours after injectable treatments to minimize raising your blood pressure which can lead to increased swelling and bruising. I recommend you follow up with your injector for specific after-care instructions. I hope this helped. Best wishes

We recommend avoiding touching and rubbing the area for at least the first six hours following your treatment in order to avoid displacement of your product. You should also avoid – before and after treatment – taking ibuprofen, aspirin and other blood thinners in order to reduce the risk of bruising and bleeding at your injection site.  After 24 hours you may resume all normal daily activities.  

You should discuss this with your service provider. I ask my patients to refrain from these activities for 24 hours.The foregoing information provided is not intended nor implied to be a substitute for professional medical advice, it is provided for educational purposes only.

I typically tell patients after injeciton of Botox or Juvederm to avoid exercise and alcohol for 24 hours.  Also after botox patient should remain upright for 4-6 hours - avoid laying flat for several hours after injection.  After 1 day it is ok to resume exercise and motor cycle riding. 

I usually recommend that my patients wait 24 hours before resuming exercise.  However, it is best to listen to the advice of the physician who injected you.  

Hi and thank you for your question. While there is no real down-time following fillers and Botox, we generally recommend patients to avoid strenuous activities and exercising for the 24-hour period following the treatment. Also drinking alcohol is best avoided in this period. I hope it helps and good luck! 

The main reason to wait 24 hours before exercising is to reduce your risk of bruising.  Heavy exercise increases blood pressure/flow, which can dislodge a clot and create a bruise.Other than this caveat, you may exercise and resume activities without any problems.

Hi there thank you for the question. 
I recommend the following aftercare post injectables: 
-No non-sterile makeup till the following day post injection
-No excess exercise for 48hours to allow time for 'settle in' time.
-For dermal fillers - no face massages / facials for 2 weeks post injection 
-Avoid temperature based treatment including light/LED facials / ultrasound, galvanic or radio frequency for 2 weeks 
-No sauna / steam room for 48hours 
Hope this helps! 
Best wishes,.
