Can icing after Sculptra lessen the collagen produced due to inhibiting the inflammatory response?

Sincere323925
Hello! I’ve done a fair amount of research on Sculptra and I know there is soreness after and a possibility of bruising. My question is— if you ice after Sculptra, or do anything like take NSAIDS to lessen the inflammation experienced, could this lessen the amount of collagen produced because Sculptra depends on the body’s inflammatory response to the poly-L-lactic acid to produce collagen?
