Thank you for your question. I would have to say that fillers are safe for a kidney transplant patient. However, I recommend that you consult your doctor prior to getting any procedures done.

Thank you for your questions. The products themselves are not dangerous to your transplant.

I appreciate your question. As long as your Sculptra was administered by an experienced, board-certified dermatologist, you can travel one day after your treatment. Sculptra is injected deeply in the temples into the dermal structure so it can trigger more collagen production and improve skin at...
Sculptra is a collagen stimulating filler that is a good option for temple volume loss. I also use Restylane Refyne and Restylane Defyne for temples. I find that most fillers tend to last longer in the temples then other parts of the face. Sculptra is a safe and effective treatment.
