Sculptra before facial plastic surgery

In my opinion, there would not be a problem having Sculptra in the jaw or microneedling 1.5 months before rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty and brow lift surgery. Sculptra treatment to the cheek could influence the lower eyelid area if it is placed high in the cheek under the eye.

Hello! My name is Jessica, I am a physician assistant, and one of the providers at Aesthetic Skin in Winnetka and Chicago. This is a great question. No problem if you choose to have Sculptra before facial plastic surgery, but it's essential to plan carefully. Sculptra, known for its ability to stimulate collagen production and improve volume over time, typically requires several weeks to months to show full results and settle completely. If you schedule Sculptra in advance of your surgery, ensure there's enough time for any potential swelling or bruising to resolve and for the filler to fully integrate. This allows your facial plastic surgeon to have a clear understanding of your facial anatomy and ensure that the results of your surgery are not impacted by the recent filler treatment. Coordinating with both your Sculptra provider and your surgeon will help you achieve the best outcomes for both your filler and surgical procedures. I hope this helps and best of luck!
