Sleeping : Sleeping on your side shouldn't cause the Radiesse (dermal fillers) to move or affect our overall results.

Many : Many surgeons and non surgeon injectors don't recognize that Radiesse (dermal fillers) is mobile in the first 24 hours however this is possible and sleeping position can have an effect on outcome depending on where you were injected. It is not recommended to have a massage or move around too much after injection of Radiesse (dermal fillers) in cheeks or for facial contouring because there cane some migration early on. In general however, once the positioning sets it does not move or reposition appreciably.... Hope this helps...

Movement : Movement during sleep or your position will have no effect on the results of your Radiesse (dermal fillers) injections.

As : As a rule, no. The material is injected into the tissue and cannot move significantly. So if i want to inject it into the lip but accidentally put it in the chin, i cannot massage it up into the lip. I must inject it where i want it to stay.
