I'm having my third Sculptra treatment and would like to use the Tripollar Stop VX RF-device and the Myolift microcurrent device. Both are at-home devices. I can't find much information on how long you should wait to use these after a Sculptra treatment. I read from one dr that since both Sculptra and RF stimulate collagen production, the use of an RF device too soon after Sculptra could lead to overproduction of collagen, resulting in collagen bumps. If true, how long should one wait?
I had the injection done on my temples and forehead about 11 days ago. After the swelling and bruising went away, I was left with two very hard and large bumps. I have been massaging to try to break them up but they have not gone away and one of them has gotten bigger. They are very noticeable and painful. I have read that these can be permanent and get even worse. Is this true? Is there anything I can do?
Are these sculptra bump or did I just develop a bad case of hormonal acne? I received Scuptra 2/13/17 by board certified doc, I followed the massaging techniques 5/5 and now I have lumps that appear during the day and dissipate while I sleep only to reoccur as my day progresses. What can be done to minimize further outbreak, also correct the current appearance? Do they self resolved or do I need to seek professional assistance?
I'm 3months out of 1 vial of sculptra its my first treatment. I don't like the results so that I've got two kenalog injections to reduce volume. Kenalog helps.But I found some hard invisible but large size bumps on my cheeks recently.I massaged it aggressively but it grows bigger suddenlynow the bump is visible and I feel painful when I touch it is that granulomasdid I get infectionwill more lumps developed in futurewhat should I dothank you for answering!
My body had a reaction to the Sculptra. Under my left eye are now three large visible bumps and the thin skin in between the lumps now has large vertical lines. My regular makeup and undereye concealer do not work because it get stuck in these big new cracks. Since the bumps are raised, I haven't been able to cover them either with base makeup.Have you heard of any way to cover them up with makeup of any sort? Is there a product that helps? What type of moisturizer can I use on the new deep lines so I don't feel this is now the first thing a person notices when they look at me?Any suggestions, you may have heard of might help. Any cosmetic cover-up for under the eyes. Any good moisturizers because the ones I used before, don't moisten the cracks. Thanks.
I tried Sculptra and was very, very pleased, however, I do not like the bumps it has left on my chin. I have been told by the dermatologist who did the original Sculptra procedure that the bump risk is no longer a concern as the Sculptra will be diluted more or something like that--cannot remember exactly what she said. However, Sculptra is very unpredictable. How do I find the best doctor who specializes in my city (Ottawa, Ontario, Canada)?
