How Soon After Sculptra Can I Have Juvederm Injections?

probably not much would happen if Juvederm Voluma were injected into the cheeks. This type of Juvederm is meant to be injected deeper than Juvederm Ultra, but it is injected to a similar depth of Sculptra. It is theoretically possible for the Juvederm to trigger an infection in the Sculptra by disturbing a biofilm. This is very rarely reported and not well understood. It might be more prudent to wait a year before injecting the Juvederm but Sculptra is know to last up to 2 years but if someone were to take a survey of physicians I doubt most would wait this long.

It is common to perform different fillers on the same day. Sculptra and Juvederm can be done during the same session. The main concern is to make sure the technique is proper and nothing is overdone. Also the bruising issue is not related to the materail but to patient preparation and injection technique. I will list my instructions below which can be helpful. Just click on the link under web reference and open the Botox and Filler instructions.

You can have Juvederm injections and Sculptra injections done very close together. Sculptra is a collagen stimulator and is often injected deeper than Juvederm. But, even though Sculptra injections bruised you initially, it doesn’t mean Juvederm won’t bruise you. It sounds like you will need more Sculptra treatment to get a desired result because one treatment of Sculptra is not enough. You need at least 2 treatments to see the result. If you’ve started Sculptra, I would recommend sticking with it as long as you’re going to a physician who is well trained in this product because Sculptra can be difficult to inject. Juvederm will not always give you the same result as Sculptra.
