Sculptra Injections - Oklahoma City

Awe thanks angel, you are so kind. The dr sold it by the cc, so I don't remember exact amounts. I think the first time was approx 1.5 vials and every time after that was about 1 vial. Except for the last time which was just a little touch up to a particular area. The 3rd treatment was almost a year after the first one. I considered the cost very reasonable considering the results.

I struggled with how to price it because I went 4 times and each time she charged me a different rate. I initially went because she had a groupon for $60 a cc and there are 10 cc in her vials. She actually used more than one vial but only charged me for 1. To make a long story short, every time I went in she charged me quite a bit less than her advertised rate. Her advertised rate was $800 a vial. Every time I went in, except for the last time, I used little over 1 vial. Maybe up to 1.5 the first time.

She used a typical syringe.

Thank you, do you know why if for any reason a cannula was not used? The reason I ask is my doctor uses a cannula but after reading on this site ive noticed that most doctors don't use it for sculptra but im not sure why.

Interesting. I wasn't aware of this option. The little bit of reading I did on it, looks like the cannula is the newer "revolutionary" way to inject fillers. Most Dr probable stick to the techniques they know work for them and don't require addition supplies and equipment.

My doctor prefers the syringe to the cannula. He is the Sculptor trainer in Singapore and did a fabulous job for me. I previously went to a doc in Malaysia who used a cannula "to minimise bruising" but I was not pleased with the results from her after two sessions (she injected too much in my upper cheekbone areas which distorted my face). The Singapore doc spent a lot more time meticulously marking and injecting my face, which resulted in much better results (but more bruising). So I would go with the experience and reputation of the doctor rather than the type of needle they use. He specifically told me that the syringe allows him to be more precise.

Thanks for the info. That is good to know.

Thx u!

My wisdom teeth cause bone loss in my jaw. The bone loss causes a sunken in area at the back of my jaw and up into the lower cheek area. The sculptra def improved it, but not as much as I wanted, so I had it filled with Radiesse. Below is a link to the review I wrote on it. I'll post some more pics on this review of it also. Based on my experience, sculptra is ideal for adding fullness to areas that need it due to weight loss and effects of aging. Since it works by promoting your body to produce collagen, the results are natural looking, smooth contours and it lasts approx 2 years. If you have some specific problem area like I did, u can always spot treat it with one of the thicker fillers. As for the recovery, I always did it during the week and never missed a day of work. The main thing I experienced is soreness. Kind of like your muscles after a work out. The only problems I had occurred in the tear through hollows. Once she hit a blood vessel and it caused a minor black eye and another time she hit a nerve and the lidocaine paralyzed my eye muscles, but it wore off in like 10 minutes. I prob had one or two other small/light bruises but nothing significant. Hope this helps. If you need any more info, let me know. http://www.realself.com/review/oklahoma-city-radiesse-hollow-area-back-cheek-and-jaw

Sorry for typos. I'm on my phone :)

Thx for the kind words. I went to Dr Michelle Cohn. I think she did good job and her rates are pretty reasonable,
