I had 2 vials of Sculptra 12 days ago in my temples. I massaged 5 times a day at least as instructed. Somehow, I still managed to get one and it feels like 2 more are developing. Ive been massaging the areas firmly, but they wont go away. All of them are where my hair is so as long as they dont get big, they are not visible. Should I get more Sculptra treatments? Should I go to this injector again ( a PA working with a dr)?
I'm getting nervous. I received Sculptra injections 15 days ago. By the next morning, my under eyes were very puffy and swollen, almost like an edema. The Dr did not inject under my eye, so im not sure why I'm swelling there. About 5 days in, I also started bruising. Both the swelling and bruises are both still there, and I still look like I may have edema under one eye. Is this normal after 15 days?
I'm 2 weeks post sculptural injections and developed small nodules in the temple area that are hardly noticeable. Does this mean it's not working or dispersing properly? Will I get desired affects when they go away or is it all a work in slow progress? Thank you kindly!
2 weeks ago I had 5 syringes of bellefill in cheeks with very little results. 2 days ago I got 2 vials of sculptra, looked like he put it in several places, except forhead. The left side of my face is extremely swollen. The right side just looks big, no real cheek definition. Will this swelling go down? Did I get too much at one time? Thank you!
i injected one vial of sculptra 10 days ago. only on the sides and jaw. now on the area near the chin at the injection site i have a swelling and a red area in one point. my jaw looks heavy. it has bern like this for two days. my internist said i have a swollen lymph node and gave me amoxicillin. What are the chances of biofilm infection? he said it is impossible for sculptra to cause biofilm infection, but i read otherwise. my dermatologist told me it was hematoma, but that was ruled out today.
I had 2 vials of Sculptra injected 6 weeks apart almost a year ago and loved it. I went back 8 months later for another vial but this time lumps appeared 2 weeks after the injections in the center of my cheeks. After 2 rounds of saline injections, my face began to swell. Prednisone was a temporary fix. The lumps are still there and at least 1-1 1/2 round and hard and the apple of my cheeks are swollen. I've been on antibiotics for weeks. A reputable plastic surgeon did the injections.
I have had Sculptra done for the first time about two weeks ago. I didn't have perfect skin before, 1-2 pimples at a time max, but literally overnight my whole face broke out with acne. Not right away after injections, about two weeks later. I am 33, but look like I am going through puberty again, can this be caused by Sculptra, or is it something I ate or put on my face? my diet is not different, I am not using new skin products, nothing changed really, but my face looks horrible, please help
I used over the counter hydro cortisone cream on an aggravated injection site for 14 days after Sculptra treatment. I started using it the second week after treament. The cream was recommended by my doctor's office. The irritated injection site is cleared up. I only used tiny amounts per day. Will the hydro cortisone have any negative effects on the Sculptra results.
