“Sculptra results are barely noticeable”
Sculptra: Worth it
Cost: $800
Pain: Uncomfortable
Review of Sculptra:Pain: Uncomfortable
Sculptra satisfaction: Good
I recommend my Sculptra provider: Name not provided
Why: I do only because I'm willing to give it more time to evolve. That's what I'm hoping for... results are mildly noticable 5-6 weeks into injection.
I am/was happy... thought I noticed a difference when I first had the sculptra injected... could be from the swelling. I did bruise, which I was not expecting to so badly. It took 2 weeks for the bruising to go away. Maybe you can suggest something to lessen this.

I needed a second treatment to see the difference. Results at about 3 months after first round. Treatments were 8 weeks apart.

Hi, thanks for the responses... just had another treatment two weeks ago and starting to see a difference. So far, so good... no regrets. I believe 3 months before I see the full results of the treatment. I do recommend sculptra but with a very experienced doctor.

Hello I had Sculptra about 2 years ago or so. THe first treatment your not going to see a difference it is obsorbed by the body its not until your second tratment that you notice a difference. I had evolve and i didnt care for it. THe sculptra lasts for about 2 years. I think i did about 4 injections. so you will need about 3 to 4. hope this helps!

I have had 4 vials over the course of a year..every 3 months. I had no results at all after the 1st treatment...It was very gradual and my derm waited for full results 3 months later before continuing. I recommend it by only by someone who has has done many treatments.My Dr has done over 1000 and he has some patients from 5 years ago that still have their results.....so go REAL slow as it can be semi-permanent

Hi, just wanted to update from my second session...2 months now and I'm starting to see results taking effect. Hope it keeps going, my doctor doesn't think I need anymore.
