Besides kenalog /steriod shots, is there any other way to minimize lumps caused by Sculptra?

FreshInPlastic
I'm 3 months post first sculptra injection, but this morning I found two large and hard lumps on cheeks, I feel painful when push them. according to may questions&answers here, I guess I may need sever kenalog shots to break them down. However, I've already got 3 shots to reduce the volume since I don't like the sculptra results. I'm allergic to Methlprenisolone, but I'm ok with very very low dose steriod shots(till now). is there any other option I can choose?
