It’s been 3 days since I had Sculptra, and I feel swelling and a slight hardness. Have nodules already formed?

Swelling or a firm feeling that appears within 2 to 5 days after the procedure is likely a normal reaction immediately after the injection rather than nodules. Temporary swelling or bruising due to the injected saline and tissue reaction usually subsides within 3 to 5 days, while true nodules often appear later (approximately 2 weeks to several months later) as firm lumps without pain. However, if there is significant swelling accompanied by warmth or pain, it is safer to consult the clinic where you received the treatment rather than self-diagnosing.
