I developed a rash along my jaw line 3 days after Sculptra injections. I had Bellafill (which has no lidocaine mixed with it) around my eyes 4 weeks later and also developed a rash. Trying to determine what I'm allergic to in the topical numbing cream which has 3 different "caines" in it. If it turns out it's the lidocaine, is it possible to still have sculptra injections? Perhaps a different numbing medication mixed into the Sculptra? I used topical hydrocortisone to treat the rash.
