Sculptra for lumpy cheek?

MaximeDec 13, 2023
Hello. I am 2 years post revision facelift with fat transfer. The first surgery resulted in an unattractive dent in my cheek, even with faThDr added more during revision surgery. That was still not a good fix. Subsequently I had filler injections which left my face in worse shape. (I’ve since had those dissolved.)
