I have had sculptra treatment in my cheeks to counter volume loss (mid face creases) after a succesful diet, but can I now have restylane subq or radiesse for further definition at the point at which my cheekbone is meant to be most prominent, or do I just have to stick with the sculptra, in essence are there any contraindications in terms of layering fillers?

Answer: Use of Multiple Fillers
There are no contraindications to using different fillers at different depths. Sculptra is more of a gradual volume inducing agent and the recommended technique is a deeper injection onto the facial skeleton. Hyaluronic acid fillers (Juvederm and Restylane) and Radiesse are usually injected subdermally and give an immediate result; the result with Sculptra evolves over three weeks or so and multiple injection sessions spaced over time are usually necessary.

Answer: Sculptra combined with other Fillers I often combine Sculptra with other fillers. Restylane or Juvederm may give you an immediate lift in a given area. Sculptra is more gradual and needs several treatments at least a month apart but will last up to two years. I love to combine different injectables for the best cosmetic results. Often I use a little Boletero around the lip lines and under the eyes since these fine lines need correction as well. Please let me know how your results last.
