Sculptra question to doctors. What is the size of a unit?

Thank you for your question. Sculptra is typically priced by the vial, there are no unit designations with this product. Each vial contains 367.5 mg of poly-L-Lactic Acid. In St Louis, MO the typical price of a vial is around $700 less any rebates that may be offered by Galderma. We usually inject 1-2 vials per session. Most patients need 4-6 vials to get adequate volume restoration. Results continue to improve over time for up to one year and 80% of patients are satisfied with their results 2 years out. I hope this was helpful - Dr. Moore.

Thank you for your question.  Generally speaking, only neuromodulators (Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin) are priced by the unit.  Sculptra is typically priced by the vial - most injectors typically use 1-2 vials per treatment session.  Please schedule a consultation with a cosmetic dermatologist or plastic surgeon with experience in Sculptra injections to discuss your treatment options.  Best of luck!
