Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
My eye doctor wants to use 6 vials of Sculptra in one day. Is this normal?
6 vials of sculptra in one session
Nov 7, 2015
I agree with MD responses below. Sculptra is a filler that stimulates your own body to produce collagen and build on the filler- it takes time to get maximal results. It is typical for patients to require 6 vials for full facial treatment, but not in one sitting, as the filler should be added over a period of time. I usually inject 2 vials, and then add as needed 6-8 weeks later. Without seeing a picture however, it is hard to tell if you would really need 6 vials on your first sitting...
I have continued numbness 2 weeks after injections. Is this common?
numbness after Kybella injections
Nov 7, 2015
Pain, swelling and numbness are all to be expected after Kybella injections as the area experiences a strong inflammatory reaction to the injection/fat cells dissolving. This inflammation and swelling, can push down on the nerves in the area, and as the inflammation subsides, the feeling will come back.
Is there a risk of unevenness if two CoolMax applicators are applied to the abdominal area?
two CoolMax applicators
Nov 7, 2015
The risk of uneven results with 2 CoolMax applicators when performing the Coolsculpt procedure, depends on the person who is applying the applicators. The human body does not have "even" fat distribution to begin with, and during your consultation, these pockets/areas of highest fat accumulation were measured out and marked for applicator placement. The idea of putting 2 applicators at one time is to save the patient time and give you good results- that means there enough fat there...
I have rosacea. Does this affect injections? Do you have any tips for people with rosacea?
Bellafill and rosacea
Nov 7, 2015
Thank you for your question. Bellafill is a long acting dermal filler used to fill in lines/wrinkles/acne scars. Rosacea is an inflammatory skin follicle and sebaceous gland process. There is no contradindication to getting Bellafill injections in patients with rosacea. It would be optimum to have the inflammation of rosacea under control before performing facial injections, so as to decrease swelling/redness/discomfort. A course of Oracea, or doxycycline is sometimes used to help...
Will my eyelid ptosis after dysport improve? It's continuing to worsen :( When can I expect to see s
dysport after scar revision
Nov 7, 2015
I agree with Dr Steinsapir, the Iopidine drops are not very powerful. If you have not gotten significant results by now, the treatment would be tincture of time. The Dysport will wear off, and the incision should have had sufficient opportunity to heal and not re-scar.
What happens when Restylane SubQ is injected superficially into the upper Dermis/ subepidermal?
Too superficial injection
May 5, 2015
When the filler is injected too superficially, the above mentioned outcomes such as lumps/Tyndall / Bruising occur- there are no serious outcomes when the product is injected into the anatomic areas it is indicated for.
My bruising seems to be getting worse after 3 days. Should I be concerned?
Bruising of lips after Restylane
May 5, 2015
Bruising after filler injection to lips is common. It can appear to get worse if the patient is on blood thinners/takes asprin/ takes vitamin E/ drinks red wine/ takes ginkgo. Ice immediately after injection helps. Taking suppliments containing arnika help as well. If it continues to worsen, consult your injecting physician
