Flying After Dermal Filler or Flying After Botox? 2 Things You Need To Know to Get The Absolutely Best Results!
Here at Jack Nathan Medspa, a common question we receive is “is flying after Dermal filler or flying after Botox Injections ok?”. In this article, we will dive into how air travel might impact your post-treatment results.
What we discuss in this article (click to open):
Flying After Dermal Filler
Ideally, you should wait 3 to 7 days before flying after dermal filler injections. This is to avoid worsening the expected discomfort and side effects of the procedure, such as bruising and swelling. Longer flights (three hours or more) can aggravate the treated area, increasing the likelihood of complications.
The reason for this has to do with the aircraft’s pressurization. Inside a plane, the cabin is pressurized to an altitude of around 8000 feet. At this elevation, there’s approximately 25% less oxygen than at sea level. As oxygen levels decrease, blood vessels may become more “leaky,” leading to increased swelling in areas treated with dermal fillers. For best results, plan accordingly around the days your expecting to fly to avoid flying after dermal filler.
Flying After Botox Injections
Flying after Botox injections is generally safe, and no specific waiting period is required before getting on a plane. Botox doesn’t take long to settle into the facial nerves; it typically settles within ten minutes of injection. However, it’s still recommended to stay upright for four hours after treatment.
While air travel won’t impact Botox results, it’s important to follow other post-Botox care recommendations given by your injector to ensure the best outcomes. Keep in mind that while Botox absorbs quickly, you will still need to wait a week or more to see the full effects, but this has nothing to do with altitude. To recap, flying after Botox injections is perfectly safe. Just keep following your post-Botox instructions.

What to Expect During Your Treatment
Botox:
Neuromodulators are administered by injection, but the syringes are so tiny they don’t feel like much more than a mosquito bite. After the Botox treatment, the medication will start to relax the treated muscles within three to five days and be fully effective within two weeks. The benefits wear off gradually, lasting an average of four months.
During your treatment, you can expect the following:
- Your face will be cleansed and sterilized.
- The practitioner will ask you to make different facial expressions to map out the muscles to be injected. They may mark their injection points during this process.
- Each injection point will be injected with the appropriate number of units.
Filler:
Prior to your injection appointment, you will be offered a consultation to discuss your aesthetic goals, what you like, and what you would like to improve.
- At your injection appointment, you will be talked through the procedure, and your practitioner will take you through the consent process. This is your opportunity to ask any questions that you may have.
- Depending on the area being injected, the practitioner may apply a numbing cream to the area prior to injecting. In general, lips are always numbed, but other areas are generally not numbed.
- Our fillers contain lidocaine, a local anesthetic that numbs the skin, so once the filler is injected, you might stop feeling the procedure altogether.
- Any numbing cream applied will be removed, and the areas of the face being treated will then be cleaned and marked, and your practitioner will put you in a comfortable position to have the treatment.
The dermal filler treatment time will vary depending on how many areas are being treated. It can be uncomfortable, and you may feel some stinging as the filler is injected, but this should be very brief, lasting no longer than a minute or two. Most people describe the procedure as uncomfortable but very tolerable.
