I've had two treatments of Sculptra. Its been about a year since my first, the second was about 12 weeks later. Results are slightly noticeable. Would an additional treatment(s) continue to give me improved volume?

Answer: What Does Sculptra Do and How Does it Differ from Other Fillers
Sculptra is a drug that stimulates collagen production by your body. As opposed to hyaluronic acid fillers such as Juvederm, Restylane, or Belotero, Sculptra exerts its effect gradually. It sometimes takes several sessions to build up sufficient volume to produce the desired aesthetic effect. I typically use Sculptra as a complement to the hyaluronic acid fillers as I find that some parts of the face respond best to Sculptra while others respond most favorably to other products.

Answer: Sculptra results
Generally speaking, if you have had some improvement with Sculptra treatments, I would say that additional treatments should give you further improvement. Two treatments would be the minimum that I would expect to give you any improvement. It is likely that a third or even fourth treatment would give you a more significant result. And your age alone should not determine if you have a good result from Sculptra. Other factors, such as the thickness of your skin and amount of existing tissue under the skin are probably more important.
