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 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.

Answer: Sculptra and fat transfer Sculptra and fat transfers can compliment each other but timing is the question. Factors that influence timing are post fat transfer swelling and bruising, skin laxity, and massage (required after Sculptra injection). If skin laxity is the issue sculptra and fat transfer may not achieve your goals. In my practice I will combine fat transfer with a facelift/necklift. Many patients express the same concerns you have meaning skin laxity and volume loss. A combination problem requires a combination treatment. If skin laxity is mild laser treatments can help with skin laxity such as laser genesis. Thank you for your question.
