Did I go too long between Sculptra treatments?

It is important not to place the Sculptra treatments too close together and I recommend waiting at least one month in between treatment sessions.  There is no problem waiting a longer period of time though.  Waiting longer should not produce less of a result.  

Hi TBH,The key is that each vial of sculptra will only add a small amount of "permanent" volume.  Your spacing was not the issue, you probably just need more!  However, there are also other in office treatment options you can consider including fat grafting, implants, and others.Best of luck!

I suggest you see an expert to determine what is best for the number of vials and treatment intervals. I have patients do more at the beginning and less as maintenance.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Spacing between Sculptra does not matter. What matters is the number of vials used. Also, age and ethnicity makes a big difference. If you are young you make a lot more collagen from Sculptra, if you arenorthern european with thin white skin then you make very little collagen compared to Asians, Middle Easterns, Latins and Africans. RegardsDr. J

Volume correction is dependent on the number of vials injected - and two vials can be injected at a time to speed up results - I recommend injecting the correct number needed by seeing the patient every 4 to 6 weeks for more injections until optimal results are achieved.  These final results will last approximately 2-3 years depending on the individual’s metabolism - but it can take several months in a row to get there.
