I had 9 vials of Sculptra...How would I maintain it...I had a runners face...I am 49 years old. (photos)

Your Sculptra liquid facelift should continue to make you look volumized and lifted for about two years. However, because you are a lean runner and all of us lose an additional teaspoon of fat per year, I usually recommend a maintenance treatment once per year. You wouldn’t need 9 vials at this point, usually just one or two.  Receiving yearly maintenance treatment, essentially “topping off the gas tank”, will keep you full and youthful for years. If you’d like to bolster collagen production, you could begin to get regular light chemical peels or non-invasive laser treatment to treat sun damage and keep the surface looking smoother. Also be sure you are on a medical-grade skin-care regimen, and always wear sun protection and a hat when outdoors — including when you’re on your training runs. Please find a board-certified dermatologist to work with you so that your skin will continue to be healthy and strong over the years.

Thank you for sharing your question and photographs and congratulations on your impressive rejuvenation with Sculptra.  Maintenance is patient specific with most patients getting an additional 1-2 vials of Sculptra every 1-2 years.  Timing will depend on your level of correction, metabolism and product response.  Hope this helps.

Hello,Thank you for your question and pictures. Based on what can be seen here it appears that you were treated to optimal correction. You will need to maintain every 12 to 18 months. Sculptra can last up to two years but you don't want to go back to zero, you want to maintain it. This will minimize the amount of money and time you spend on each fill. Ask you doctor to outline a game plan for you. This will allow you to have an idea of what to expect and when. Good luck!
