Sculptra from Fat Necrosis from Steroid Injection
I was not in the market for a plastic surgeon, but I feel lucky that my primary care doctor steered me over to Dr. Cho's practice. I had a steroid shot in my hip Christmas of 2017 for acute bronchitis. Several months later I started seeing a large divot in my hip that was growing each month. It felt like the tissue there completely dissolved and I was feeling nothing but sinew. I thought it might be cancer so I headed to my PCP in September of 2018 and he said I had fat necrosis from my steroid injection. He sent me to Dr. Cho and I am so glad he did. Dr. Cho immediately recognized and confirmed that it was fat necrosis. He assured me the treatment was simple and was able to treat me that same day as my initial assessment appointment. He gave me Sculptura injectable and actually shaped the area as he was injecting it. He walked me through the healing process, and I only had to have one more treatment.

Thank you for sharing your story. Steroids are great when needed, but can definitely cause unintended consequences. I am glad that I was able to help.
