If you love to travel or live at a higher elevation, you may be wondering—does altitude impact dermal fillers? At Chester Skin & Wellness in Chester Township, NJ, Dr. Deborah Petrowsky ensures every treatment accounts for factors that may affect your results, including changes in pressure and climate.
When you ascend to higher altitudes, air pressure decreases, which can lead to temporary swelling due to slight fluid shifts in the body. This effect is generally mild but can be more noticeable right after getting dermal fillers. Hyaluronic acid-based fillers naturally attract water, and the reduced atmospheric pressure may cause a subtle increase in volume. However, this is usually short-lived and resolves as your body adjusts.
For those who frequently travel to places like Colorado or ski resorts with significant elevation changes, Dr. Petrowsky recommends planning treatments accordingly. Giving your fillers at least two weeks to settle before high-altitude trips helps prevent unnecessary swelling or discomfort.
Whether you’re enhancing your lips, cheeks, or jawline, Chester Skin & Wellness provides expert care to ensure long-lasting, natural-looking results—no matter where life takes you. Ready to learn more? Schedule a consultation and get expert guidance tailored to your needs.
