The Blog Flying After Cosmetic Treatments: What to Consider Before You Travel

With many of our patients wanting to look their best in time for a holiday, business trip or other travel, we’re often asked, “Is flying safe after a cosmetic treatment?”

It’s a great question. Here are some key tips to help you stay informed and feel confident when flying after a cosmetic treatment.

Can You Fly After a Cosmetic Treatment?

The answer is yes, flying is usually possible.

But – and it’s an important but – you must wait the appropriate time after your treatment before you board that plane.

The ideal waiting time can vary depending on the treatment you’ve received. For some treatments, a shorter timeframe may be suggested, while others may benefit from a longer recovery window.

To avoid any potential risks, we recommend that you wait for two weeks following your treatment. Planning ahead as much as possible will allow adequate time between your procedure and your flight.

It’s also important to consider whether access to qualified professionals might be limited at your travel destination. It’s wise to discuss your plans with your cosmetic practitioner beforehand.
