Sculptra nightmare - the bottom of my face is huge and puffy

I’m already on an entirely anti inflammatory diet and every anti inflammatory supplement and have a doctor who specializes in gut and immunity. Nothing I do makes any difference whatsoever

Diet won’t fix. You need oral prednisolone and kenacort injections.

How are you now ? My face gets inflamed and my under eyes look horrible . I don’t know anyone who can help me

Send me an inbox I’ll send you some details

Same my under eyes are swollen and blue tinted I have pain in the side of my face by my ear four months after sculpture. I look terrible throughout the day my skin looks pale and white. My under eyes look whitish yellow . Dr says leave it alone .

I need help as well . Please

I find this true but I am two years in. Did you doc mean soon after you had or injected or years later?i kept massaging vigorously because I read that massage could help speed up the scar tissue break down. I left it alone for two years with minimal change

that is a great advice, it helped with me. i have a very similar experience with sculptra

How does it look now - I just want this toxic waste out of my face as well and I’m only 6 months in square jaw it wasn’t even put there and I hate it

Even at month 4?

The massaging won’t help unfortunately. It’s just a terrible product and once you’ve reacted badly it doesn’t stop

I got it done 6 weeks ago and I’m so worried. I thought if you did the massages you would be good.

I’m at 1.5 years and it hasn’t gotten better . Sometimes my face look grey . My upper lip is folding toward the inside of my mouth on one side so now my lips are crooked and I look like I’ve had a stroke . There’s grayish fluid that shows up under my eyes sometimes . Whole face is numb I have tried to be patient but after 1.5 years I feel like it’s never going to get better . It’s like he put it very shallow into my face . I can see the outline of product . My under eyes sometimes look very thick and yellow . The Dr who did this says he will not see me anymore and I’m sure that’s because I’ve thrown a fit and told him to stop gaslighting me . I’m so upset ! This stuff is the absolute worst !

Did leaving it alone help ? How are you now ?

Yes that’s not even close to the issue

also the sculptra should not be placed only in the chin it has to go in temples....cheeks....jaw to give a balanced look

It’s been 4 months. I’ve been massaging. This is an allergic reaction or overfill of some kind. I don’t have any in the chin only in the cheeks

Go away

I’ve had it twice 7 months into my fill I have hollow spots on the left side of my face. Went to my dermatologist and she said it’s because I’ve lost weight I don’t believe it. I got anot kind of filler and it looks like it all went underneath my eyes it looks so bad and one side has like tread marks. I’m hoping this will resolve idk. My dr is no help. Now the want to draw blood and place it under my eyes. I don’t know what to do or think.

Thank you so much for sharing and responding. I will not be getting anymore of this garbage in my face.
I’m currently on 20mg prednisone and 100mg doxycycline x2 a day. I will be trying my first kenalog injections this weekend and hopefully it will work. I really appreciate you sharing your experience and hope this works for me too!

Has this treatment worked im on the same situation.

Where can we see your pic?

It’s only gotten worse and worse and worse. Over a year and I’ve done everything known to man, spent thousands of dollars and can’t fix it or stop it

How are you now?
