Pre and Post-Sculptra treatment
I just wrote a new separate review of this product so I won't repeat here but here are the before after pics
Update to all following: Switching to Sculptra!
I did some reading up and seems like Sculptra is the next progression here for a longer lasting result, it lasts 2+ years and seeing as I am over 30 I would like a longer lasting solution to push back aging a bit more. It was recommended I add the Sculptra while Radiesse is still there so that the transition is gradual. I have my appointment scheduled for Mar 1st...let's hope it goes okay and there is no serious brusing :)
Some dr.s comments about my question:
How long after Radiesse should I wait to inject Sculptra at the same site?
"I think it would be fine for you to have Sculptra injected at any point now into the same area you had Radiesse in September of 2016. There is no interaction, but some of the effect you have from the Radiesse will begin to fade while the Sculptra gradually fills it.

"There shouldn't be any problems injecting Sculptra after Radiesse. There is no interaction between the two. Sculptra is a great filler for the right candidate. It provides gradual collagen stimulation and natural-appearing results. I have found that injecting Sculptra with a cannula in most facial areas greatly reduces the likelihood of bruising.

Provider Review
Was very calming, knowledgeable and friendly. Expert in knowing how to prevent bruising and also in where exactly to inject the substance to give a very natural result. With the nasolabial folds he injects in such a way to push the nose back out as when we age gravity tends to make it sink into face and then fills in the lines ever so slightly. Very encouraging and supportive of my decisions. I had a great experience!
