Sculptra after 6 months?

northeastcitygirl
I understand that Sculptra reaches its maximum volume 6 months after treatment. At that point, does it stabilize and then slowly start to decrease or just start to decrease? Is the 'Sculptra lasts 2 years' estimation from the 6 month point, so that you're looking at a total of 2.5 years of volume? I read somewhere that the volume at the year mark is approximately 50% of what it was at the 6 month mark; is this correct?
