Are My Complications Normal 2 Weeks Post Sculptra? (photo)

Asked By:Jeffery20012 in Los Angeles, CA

Sculptra done 2 weeks ago, 2 vials total. I hated the look, fat cheeks. My left side was a lot more swollen than the right. Went to ask about it and they said it was just from swelling, and that is looked fine. Also more was injected in that side, apparently to make my face uneven I guess? It seemed to go down a bit after the week, but now the swelling is back on left side. There feels like there is pressure, itching, and puffy, no more definition. I am not getting more but how do I fix?
