Sculptra and nerve damage? Will sensation loss & weakness go away?

I'm sorry to hear about your experience. While I can provide some general information, it's important to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized medical advice.

Sculptra is a dermal filler used for cosmetic purposes, and while generally safe, any injectable treatment can carry risks of side effects, including nerve damage. Nerve involvement could potentially cause symptoms like sensation loss or weakness. These symptoms can sometimes resolve on their own, but it depends on the extent of the nerve involvement.

Here are a few things to consider:

Time: Nerve injuries can sometimes take time to heal. Improvement can occur over weeks to months.

Follow-Up: It's crucial to follow up with the healthcare provider who administered the treatment. They can assess the situation and determine if further intervention is necessary.

Treatment Options: Depending on the severity, treatments such as physical therapy, medications, or other interventions might be recommended to aid recovery.

Further Evaluation: If symptoms persist, your provider might suggest imaging studies or refer you to a specialist for further evaluation.

Please make sure to contact your healthcare provider to discuss your symptoms and get appropriate care.
