The problem with the FDA is not that they approve dangerous products willy-nilly but that their approval process is too darn rigorous and slow. There are all sorts of supposedly amazing fillers (such as Aquamid) that have been available for years in Europe that may take years (if ever) to get approved for use in the U.S. Sculptra may have just been given the official FDA stamp of approval for cosmetic use this year, but my doctor has been using this product off-label for volumizing since it first became available years ago. Sculptra and Artefill are my two favorite filler/volumizer products...at least used properly by a good doctor such as mine.
