“If You Are Afraid of Sculptra, but...”

16 October 2012: I had my first filler in March of 2012. I had never really heard of any of this stuff until I recently moved to Malibu, and then decided to check it out. I spoke to a friend back east, who was familiar with all these procedures, and she said that she had had Sculptra in the past and loved the results, but had small bumps under her skin for 3 years, which she didn't like. After... more

“Awful!! Flew to LA to Have it Done -...”

Having read some of the reviews I decided I would only do sculptra if I went to the best doctor available so I flew out to LA to have it done. Even in the hands of a skilled doctor I ended up with marble sized lumps on my face. I have always been told that I was beautiful and didn't look my age however since this procedure my face looks lumpy and bloated. No one describes me as beautiful any... more

“Sculptra Instead of Facelift/ulthera...”

I had some minimal sagging and loss of volume in face. Was considering a mini facelift or Ulthera, but saw some photos using Sculptra and decided to give it a try (I heard Ulthera is very good, but fairly uncomfortable.) I had two sessions (3 months apart) with 2 vials each time and I think the result is very very good. The slight jowling at the sides of my face is gone, my cheeks are fuller... more

“Gave Me Too Much Volume! I Hate It -...”

I went to see dr gail humble to fill in my laugh lines and fill a tiny bit of wrinkles under the eyes (Eyes are a whole other nightmare using restylane). I wanted to use restylane or something like that to fill in the lines around the mouth, but she talked me into getting sculptra on my cheek bones up to the temple area. she said it would lift the laugh lines up. Big mistake! I only had 1 vial... more

“A True Artist for Your Face! - Los...”

I wanted to get back my youthful face after my husband died and the grief and stress added years to my face. My main goal was to look like myself, only fresher and younger. Sculptra is unbelievable for turning back the clock. I can't even begin to describe how great the results were! Anyone considering this should make sure they get a doctor who has done lots of sculptra injections. I... more

“Rave for Sculptra - Los Angeles, CA”

My dermatologist deep injected Sculptra on my face--what a difference! I endorse this product 100%. It takes a few months to really see the difference, but when it does, it's extraordinary. It's also a relatively painless procedure with some bruising, but it's well worth it considering the results. more

“Sculptra - Los Angeles, CA”

I did my full face and the procedure was long and very uncomfortable. The numbness was annoying but the deep needle running along my bone was very invasive. I left there with a very sore jaw- I could not open my mouth more than a 1/2in for day. I was very very swollen and sore- I did my massages religiously regardless of the soreness. On day 4, large bruises appeared in several places on... more

“Sculptra Still Going Strong - Love...”

I had Sculptra injected in 2009. Since 2009 I have had a few touch ups - nothing since May 2010 and the results are phenomenal. Most of the volume was placed in my temple area. When I see the before and after pics I am amazed at how natural and subtle the effect is. I just look happier in the after pictures. Great product if you find an experienced doctor with a good eye to inject you. Dr.... more

“I Hate It! - Los Angeles, CA”

A dermatologist suggested Sculptra to help diminish bags under my eyes. She said volume to my cheeks would help reduce the appearance of bags. All it did was make my face look fat and puffy. I still have bags under my eyes and I hate the way it had made my face look. I can't wait for it to go away. Is there anything I can do to speed up it's course? For example, work out more,... more

“Very Professional and Confident -...”

I am 43 and I looked tired, sculptra gave me volume in the right place,now I look ealthy and more rested , it looks very naturale and is perfectly done! more

“From Cynic to Believer - Los Angeles, CA”

{edited} {by Britt user asked to fix misspellings} Like most women who are at the crux of baby boomer land where you start to disappear (meaning no one notices you much anymore), I wasn’t ready to give up and get in the rocker. My appearance was always something I sort of relied on and I was losing it! Scary? You bet! At first the changes were almost undetectable, but over... more

“Sculptra is Not Worth the Agony! -...”

Can hardly notice a difference and on top of it, have large,marble size lumps under my skin. I am in a constant state of anxiety about my current bumps growing and the possibility of more forming over the next three years. PLEASE DO NOT GET THIS DONE!!! I don't wish this on anyone. NOT WORTH THE RISK!!! Hate this product! I still have the lumps that Dr. Fitzgerald promised... more

“Sculptra Treatments - Love my Face...”

I had 3 treatments of Sculpta Aesthetic over 6 months and love my results. Prior to my treatments, my family & co-workers would ask if I was tired and my reflection didn't reflect me (you know what I mean). I like the gradualness of the correction and that it is my own collagen not some "filler". My kids and husband say I look great - not "done or fake" - th more

“Sculptra in Jawline, Cheeks and...”

After much research on Sculptra and the long term benefits of using it, I decided to give it a try. I have had several areas treated, including my jawline, cheeks and temples. I could actually see the results immediately! My first treatment was back in December, where I had all of the aforementioned areas treated. I went back yesterday for a follow up and had a little bit more added to my... more

“Worth the Money - Happy with Results”

I had my first treatment of 2 vials 10 weeks ago and a second treatment 2 weeks ago, again 2 vials. I am in SoCal and my doctor charges $750 per vial. Recently, I have had several comments about me looking so young for my age, 53. It has given me a real boost. It has lifted my eyes somewhat, having it injected above the brow and in the temples. I feel that I look at least 10 years younger than... more

“It All Depends Upon Who Does the...”

After much research and consideration, I had Sculptra injected yesterday.  So far the results are excellent.  I had anethetic cream applied to my face before the injections.  I really didn't feel pain.  It was more a matter of the eerie feeling of having needles stuck into your face and the sound they make.  More nerves than pain.  Also, the actual injections... more

“Good Advice”

I had sculptra under the eyes, I have major bumps, looks terrible, I feel like a monster and don't know if they will ever go away. I wish someone could tell me what to do, I'm afraid to go back to any plastic surgeon. All I do is feel like people are looki8ng at my bumps when I talk to them. Its awful. more
