La Jolla Sculptra doctors

Sculptra is an injectable form of L-Polylactic acid.  When injected into the face, it stimulates an inflammatory reaction which stimulates collagen production by the facial tissues and results in a natural tightening and filling.  If diluted properly and injected in the right plane, there is extremely low risk for developing lumps.  When performed by a board certified and trained plastic surgeon or dermatologist, Sculptra can be injected in most of the facial regions.  The only areas I do not recommend injecting Sculptra are the eyelids and the lips.  Otherwise, one can create a true liquid facelift result as well as create significant improvement in overall skin quality following 3-4 sessions of Sculptra injection.

Sculptra works very well in the temple area and can provide a long lasting improvement in the filling out hollowness in this area.  Even a  subtle correction here can have a rejuvenating effect.  It is important that the injections be deep and avoid the vessels that course through the temple area.  Also diluting the product adequately will help avoid development of any visible nodules.

I place Sculptra in various places in the face, basically everywhere except under eyes, forehead and lips.
