Sculptra is a great product for improving facial volume and collagen building, but for best results, I recommend using it in a combination depending on desired results. I combine Sculptra with other fillers, lasers, toxins and skin care to give immediate results. See an expert for a formal evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer
Sculptra is an excellent product to volumize the face. It generally lasts about two years and would be safe for you if properly injected.Fat grafting (transfer) to the face would be an even longer active method of increasing your facial volume. The fat grafts would require a liposuction to attain enough fat for the procedure. I'm not a fan of radio-wave technology to the face unless one wants a reduction in volume. Most people lose too much facial volume with age anyway. This is the reason "fillers" are so popular.Thank you for your question.
It is not surprising that Exilis caused fat atrophy. Surface RF devices have not way to determine how deep they go. That is why the Infini is my preferred choice for RF tightening because the depths are known. In any event, Sculptra will be a good choice to replace the volume lost by the fat. Other good options are Bellafill or fat grafting.
Thank you for your question. A number of the surface RF devices have been shown to result in facial fat atrophy when used aggressively for skin tightening. Sculptra Aesthetic would be an excellent selection for replacing the volume you have lost. I would recommend taking in some pictures of yourself from several years ago when you go in for your consultation so that a natural appearing result can be achieved. I hope this was helpful - Dr. Moore.
The treatment an be either 5FU or Kenalog or both. I would also consider oral immunosuppresive drugs and maybe antibiotics, such as Biaxin. Surgical excision should be a last resort.
These 2 have to be related. Is is possible this is merely a bruise. If this is the case, waiting will resolve the problem. If this represents an infection, you might need antibiotics. I would discuss with both doctors to see what their opinions are.
I think that what is bothering you is that the lower face and jawline are too broad. I don't ever inject masseters with Sculptra. I would try to see if Botox/Dysport in the masseters will turn the face into a more V shaped. Possibly placement of fillers in the temples might round out the upper f...
