Sculptra ruined my cheekbones, face is puffy in weird places - What can I do?

Hallie12345Feb 9, 2022
I am 34/female. On 9/29/21 I had 2 vials of Sculptra injected all over my face and 1/2 a syringe of Voluma. I have now (4 months later) lost my high cheek definition; jowls are now saggy and the apple of my cheeks protrude outward & are way too low in my face.

Need more photos but I think a mini anterior facelift with SMAS plication along with HA fillers to tear troughs could be you best option. Fees in $10,000 ranges.

These procedures performed a week apart will not interact as they function at different levels. Sculptra is traditionally injected very deep on the periosteum (the surface of the bone), while the Tixel treatment works on the superficial skin.
