Can I Sleep on the Side of my Face After Having Radiesse Injected into my Cheeks?

Hi PHD,

Whether you can sleep on the side of your face after having Radiesse injections depends on how heavy your head is, how hard the surface that you are sleeping upon, and how much of a drunken stupor you are under.  Best to discuss this with your injector, but it is not a bad idea to sleep on your back the first few nights.  If that is not possible, a soft pillow should do.  Radiesse in the cheeks is usually injected deep so that light pressure should not affect your treatment.  Good luck and be well.

Hi PHD.  This should not be a problem.  Just to be safe, it would not be a bad idea idea to sleep on your back for a day or two.  Especially in the first day or two following Radiesse injections, the product can be massaged and moved slightly so rule out any possibilities by sleeping on your back.
