Sculptra Radiesse

 

Please discuss any additional concerns that you have about undergoing this procedure with Naya Spa and your primary care physician prior to treatment. 

As we age, we lose volume and collagen, and many people experience deepening lines, sagging, or heaviness around the mouth because of this. They often think they need dermal filler made from hyaluronic acid in these areas, but filler can add extra heaviness. Radiesse and Sculpra are the best answer for this concern! Radiesse is composed of calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres in a water- based gel carrier, and Sculptra is a poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) collagen stimulator. Your own body will stimulate the production of collagen 6-8 weeks post treatment…BUT it will require a bit of PATIENCE since results do take time.

These treatments can treat common concerns such as thinning crepey skin, wrinkles, and sagging neck skin (“turkey neck”).

FAQ’S

WHAT ARE THE POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS OF THE TREATMENT?

Expected minor side effects including swelling, redness, pain or tenderness, and mild bruising. These typically resolve within days of your treatment. Although some people do not bruise at all, it is always possible. It’s recommended to use ice in the first 24-48 hours after your treatment to minimize swelling and/or discomfort. To prevent bruising, Naya also recommends to avoid aspirin and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication one week before and up to 3 days after treatment, if okayed by your physician; avoid vitamin E and fish oil one week prior to your treatment; avoid strenuous exercise in the 72 hours prior to your treatment; and consider adding arnica or bromelain tablets to your regimen one week before and up to 3 days after treatment.
