How long + will Sculptra go first?

I went to a very experienced sculptra doctor but I don't like the result. How long before it goes down? And will the sculptra treated areas go before the rest of my face? Thank you

Morpheus8 treatments should not increase the chance of developing nodules after treatment with Sculptra. I would recommend having the Sculptra treatments first because the treatments can improve the quality of the skin. You could do Morpheus8 afterwards if you feel it is needed.

The older formulations of Sculptra did require a pre-mix several days in advance, however the new formulation is ready for use immediately following mixing. Sculptra can be a great choice for volume replacement. Discuss with a provider who is familiar with these treatments.

Immediately after treatment, you will have some swelling that should settle down within the next several days. Any prolonged swelling should be assessed for hematoma, infection, or an inflammatory reaction. It is best to follow up with your healthcare provider if the swelling has not subsided...
