Sculptra treatments are generally well-tolerated, but everyone’s pain tolerance is different. Here’s what you need to know:
- Sources of Discomfort: The discomfort typically stems from the initial injections and may feel like slight stinging or prickling.
- Pain Management: At AIVI Aesthetics Agoura Hills, we prioritize your comfort. We may use a topical numbing cream to minimize any sensitivity during the injections. Additionally, Sculptra itself contains a numbing agent (lidocaine) for added comfort.
- Post-treatment Soreness: Some tenderness and swelling at the injection sites are common and usually subside within a few days. Over-the-counter pain relief medication can help manage this.
Your AIVI Aesthetics practitioner will discuss specific pain management strategies during your consultation to ensure a comfortable experience.
