My experience with Sculptra has been positive in...
My experience with Sculptra has been positive in the long run, but I'm not going forward with additional injections. A few hours after I left my PS, who is an expert injector, I experienced swelling, pain and lumps at most of the injection sites. The pain at these sites was so severe, massaging the product into my face as required for proper distribution was agony.
Swelling, redness, lumps and pain slowly resolved over the next 8 days. Today, 4 months later I have only 2 lumps left neither of which can be seen. My PS is an expert - thank goodness - who injected the product properly (deep). The lumps may be my fault. It may be I did not adequately massage the product in these 2 places. I did my best. Massaging my face was truly painful. If I'd had any Percocet around, I'd have taken it.
I really like the Sculptra concept and I think I look better, but I can't go through the reaction cycle again. I'll go with a lower risk filler like Juvederm XC. I've had Juvederm before without issue and it's reversible unlike Sculptra.

I find my experiences with Dr. Rostami top notch. She's a consummate professional, nice, a mom - exactly the type of doctor I like to deal with. Sanctuary Medical Spa is very nice, the staff is well trained and pleasant and the other patrons there are always chill to visit with when I'm there. So. All good.
