I had sculptra injected into my temples and nodules formed shortly after. A steroid was then injected to shrink the nodules and now my temple area is so sunken in with bulging veins showing. Its so much worse than before. How can this be corrected?
I'm thinking of layering Sculptra with dermal filler to volumise my midface, but I'm not sure if it's wise to use Sculptra where dermal filler was previously used considering the risks of nodule formation. How long do I have to wait between Sculptra and dermal filler injections in order to reduce chances of complications? As I haven't found a medical practitioner that has experience with using Sculptra in my area, I'm doing dermal fillers first.
I had Sculptra injected into my face 5 months ago. Doctor did not warn me of any possible side effects. I have autoimmune disorder and now I am learning that with patients who have autoimmune it is more likely to develop the nodules/granuloma/lumps. Two weeks ago I woke up swollen on one side of the face with hard lump under that swelling. Two days ago, the other side of my face got swollen and more hard nodules have formed. How can they be resolved? I would like to avoid steroids. Thank you
Hello, I had sculptra injected in my lower face and hands. 2 vials total. Prob 1.5 on my face and .5 divided between my hands. I have large nodules all over my hands, including on my knuckles. It is painful to move the fingers. Please advise anything to treat these nodules. I have tried saline injection once and microneedling RF 3 times with no improvement at all. I need help as I am in pain.
I'm considering getting sculptura but I'm afraid of granuloma and nodule formation. What can one do if a granuloma or nodule forms? Does this treatment really work to improve tightening of the face and how often does this have to be redone? Is this something that permanently remains?
Would eczema be a problem for me getting Sculptra?I was searching on the web and found that eczema is considered an autoimmune disease. Would this cause nodules down the road? Ive had voluma in the past and always go when my face is clear from the eczema and never have had a problem. What would your recommendation be? Thanks for the input.
