How long after anti-wrinkle injections can I exercise?
Most patients are advised to avoid strenuous exercise for at least 24 hours after anti-wrinkle injections. This is general guidance and your clinician may adjust it based on your treatment area, medical history and aftercare needs. Follow the written aftercare provided by your clinic and contact them if you are unsure.
