Is there and alternative to Scupltra?

marzipan12
I had one follow up injection with a disastrous result. After 3 days, the right side of my face was still swollen and then it was paralyzed. It was determined that I had experienced some nerve damage. I really loved the way Sculptra looked but I am hesitant to use it again. I was wondering if Radiesse would be less risky to use or any other injectable could give me the same results without that risk. Thank you so much!
