I have just had a fat transfer to my cheeks and nasolabial folds. Nevertheless, I am not satisfied with the results, as I think the sagging problem was not solved. Can I have Sculptra or other filler injected into the same areas (and others, such as the jaw and chin)?
Answer: Sculptra Sculptra can be injected In the cheek areas after fat transfer has been done. The presence of fat should not cause any issues with a Sculptra injection in terms of recovery, swelling or pain.RegardsDr. J

Answer: Sculptra after facial augmentation with fat Dear apt:After Sculptra, the face must be massaged vigorously for five days, which is not best for survival and placement of your fat grafts. In addition, although Sculptra is placed very deeply, it is injected into the same fat compartments that were most likely filled with autologous fat, and could have an unpredictable effect on the fat grafts. It is best to wait -- but there is data to indicate exactly how long you should do so. I would say 3 months is a minimum.All the best, Dr. Clark

Answer: Sculptra after Fat Transfer This is a great question! I've used Sculptra a number of times to treat patients who have previously undergone face lifts and facial fat transfer. It's a great option for subtly adding additional volume and lifting and contouring the face. I would recommend that you schedule a consultation with an experienced, board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon to discuss the best treatment plan to help you achieve your goals.

Answer: Sculptra after fat transfer There's no reason why you wouldn't be a candidate for Sculptra injection after you are fully healed from a fat transfer. However, you may want to consider discussing your goals during an in-person consultation with a board-certified facial sculpting expert. While Sculptra is excellent for helping to create natural looking volume, there may be better options for helping you counteract the sagging you're bothered by.

Answer: Sculptra After Fat Transfer So long as it's warranted, Sculptra after fat transfer should not be a problem. The most important thing to consider is time between the fat transfer and the Sculptra. You need to give your body time to heal and allow the swelling to fully subside so you have an accurate picture of the final result before adding to what has been done. I don't know when your fat transfer was but I would give it at least a month before doing anything else.
