I’m 38 years old and ever since my Pixel 8 and Halo treatments (last one was 7 months ago) the skin on my chin has thinned in certain spots. It looks like I lost fat or tissue resulting in idendations that I didn’t have to that degree before the treatments. I didn’t have any when I was younger. I’ve noticed that older folks get those as the skin looses elastin/collagen and fat. I’d like to thicken the skin on my chin pad to make it less obvious. Would sculptra be a good option in my case?
