My first treatment of Sculptra went beautifully. The P.S looked at my pictures, and did the appropriate correction. I saw him 7 weeks later for the second treatment - what a disaster. He overfilled, and admitted as such. I didn't even recognize myself when I left his office - I looked like I was severely beaten, bruised, and swollen. And then before I left his office, he said to me this is "where we want to go". Nice cover - not. His staff when I left couldn't even look at me when I booked the follow-up.
My point - don't blame the patient for not massaging if things go wrong. I have massaged 5 times a day for 10 minutes each time for the last nine weeks. I will continue for the next 5 months or more doing the same because I was overcorrected. It was not my choice or wish - he was an experienced P.S. but chose to do this.
My advice, massage hard, 10 minutes, 5 times a day, for the next several weeks. And do anything initially which will hopefully diffuse the product.
