How Soon Can I Exercise After Restylane Injections?

Question

Hello I am making allot of sport and i want to know if i can run after a restilane filling, or will the filling move down from the areas? Thank u

Ron Shelton, MD · Answer

It is safer not to exericise for a day after the injections to minimize bruising and swelling but the exericise shouldn't make it migrate to other areas provided the tissues are not being squeezed and manipulated.

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

It is best to wait 24 hours after your filler treatment before resuming exercise.  Exercise prior to this will not "move" the filler, but you may have more swelling.

Solomon Facial Plastic - Thornhill · Answer

Your results will not change from doing exercise, but with exercise there is increased blood pressure and blood flow. This increase in blood flow and pressure could make your swelling and bruising take a longer time to heal. Give yourself a couple days of rest. Walking is fine and you can continue to apply ice periodically throughout the day to the area injected.

Heidi A. Waldorf, MD · Answer

I recommend waiting 2 days after filler injection to resume significant cardio exercise or anything that requires significant strain or your head hanging downward. It won’t change the outcome (the results) but the dilation of blood vessels that happens with exercise can increase and prolong bruising and swelling.  If you don’t mind some extra downtime or if you tend not to bruise or swell, then go ahead and exercise the day after fillers.  Caveate - these are my recommendations.  However I recommend you follow the instructions of your physician.I hope this answer was helpful.  Best wishes!

Thank you for your question. It is advisable not to exercise for 24 hours after injection. This is to help minimize bruising and swelling. However, exercising should not make the filler migrate as long as the tissues are not being squeezed or manipulated. Best of Luck
