Had Sculptra 10 years ago, lumps underneath my cheekbone. How can I break them up?

Asked By:cassie111

Had sculptra 10 years ago. Amazing stuff then after that was only filled with hyaluronic acid. Couldn’t understand why it never lasted. Fast forward to now my doctor recommended I have sculptra for sunken cheeks as the product had changed and no problems with the new solution. I now know that must be the lumps underneath my cheekbone. Never knew what they were. How can I break them up?

This product is injected into the dermal layer of skin! Avoid bony area and avoid deposit injection. It is best to be injected with a micro Cannula antegrade or retrograde when the product is warm and well mixed to avoid clumps or clogging of the cannula!
