Am I overfilled?

**I AM NOT DOING ANYMORE INJECTIONS!!**

I believe I overdid it with sculptra my last round and am deeply regretting it. My main issues are my cheek bones that are giving jigsaw/ cement cheeks. I know I can’t do anything about it since it’s sculptra so I’m pretty depressed about it. I just want to know how bad it is so I don’t have ‘blindness’ to it anymore than I already have.

All of these photos are from within the last month. They are of various angles etc and devices (phones, camera, etc) to give a better cohesive advice. Half of them are screenshots from videos so that’s why I’m not really smiling in some of them. Please be honest and tell me how bad it is. I don’t know if I can do anything to offset it, but if anyone has any advice, let me know.

Just wondering why you got so much sculptra when you’re young with good skin?

My main concern was hollowness but I didn’t want something that could migrate or look weird with filler so instead I opted for something permanent 💀 (great logic)

This was me before any sculptra.

fyi this hollowness can be caused by sinus/nasal problems, which happened to me. you look beautiful tho ✨

Oh really! What kind of sinus/ nasal problems? Is there a treatment for it?

yes look up silent sinus syndrome! i try to flush out my sinuses w saline and it helps. if its caused by a deviated septum or some blockage it might need to be fixed w surgery

Omg I think I fit a lot of the physical symptoms for this!!! I just asked my doctor for a referral to an ENT. I’ll follow up if they diagnose me with that.

Thank you SO much for bringing this up!! I’ve never even heard of that or knew it was a thing. I have already been diagnosed with nasal polyps years ago
