I had Sculptra done a few days ago. I experienced swelling for 3 days and some bruising but I always bruise with traditional fillers. I went back to my dermatologist's office and they used a laser to break up the bruise faster. It was lighter the next day. I had two vials my first treatment and am returning after 3 weeks for more. Not sure if I'll get one or two vials because my volume loss is pretty minor.

Sculptra update

All swelling and bruising is gone. My best friend is a plastic surgeon and she told me that she has noticed that her patients that are one Retin-A have a faster and more robust response. I am going to up my Retin-A to 0.05% every night instead of the 0.25% every other night that I have been using.

One month update

I'm very, very pleased with how well Sculptra worked. I really think the supplement and Retin-A that my plastic surgeon best friend gave me made a difference because I started noticing results at 3 weeks versus the 6-8 weeks it took in the past. Not sure if it will reduce the total number of vials I need or if it just made results more visible sooner, but either way I'm very happy. I had what I think will be my last vial (for a total of 3) one week ago and had no bruising or other issues.
