Is Sculptra Likely to Cause Lumps if Injected in the Temples? A PS suggested this could be done to create volume in this area. But Im very thin there. Its just like under my eyes and is skin on bone. I find it hard to believe it wouldnt end up visibly lumpy. Then I watched the Sculptra dvd and it shows before and after pics featuring only the area around the mouth. The dvd even states Sculptra has only been evaluated for nasolabial wrinkles and folds. Is Sculptra effective at creating natural looking volume in the temples?

A: Sculptra in the Temple Area

Sculptra can be used effectively in this area. What you describe is a good indication for the use of Sculptra. I agree with the other doctors that it should be administered by a well trained and experienced injector. You may need a few treatments to get the desired result.

Is it True that Sculptra Causes Natural Formation of Collagen? What if too much was Injected? If the collagen formed by sculptra is just normal bodily collagen, why would it go down in 2 or 3 years? I had too much sculptra which altered my face shape and I'm worried by doctors on this board saying the sculptra caused my own collagen to form - surely this implies that my face shape will never return to normal as the collagen will go down with the rest of my face - not just where the sculptra was done? Thank you

A: Sculptra and collagen formation

Sculptra does create new collagen but the body is in a constant cycle of losing collagen, that is part of the aging process. Collagen is not a static product that lasts forever, whether it is your own or it is created by the injection of Sculptra. I think that in time, the material created by the Sculptra injections should dissolve and you should lose all of the newly created fullness.

“1st Treatment”

I just had my first Sculptra treatment yesterday and must say that the pain was very minimal. Not only did my dr. put a numbing balm on my face, he also injected the sculptra with lidocaine (sp?). My face is still a little swollen this morning and it feels sore when I do the massaging. About a week before my treatment I started the Obaji skin treatment. With the Obaji, my skin is turning... more
