How often for maintenance Sculptra? Can't go by looks since you see yourself everyday.

Thank you for sharing your question and congratulations on your results.  For most patients maintenance can be performed with one vial every 1-2 years after full correction.  Hope this helps.

Your satisfaction with a Sculptra facelift isn’t unusual! Sculptra is a marvelous product that triggers the production of new, strong strands of collagen in your skin that create a supportive matrix. The lift and contour you are seeing should last about 2 years or  longer. However, because you will be aging during that time, too, there will be continued volume loss.  Beginning at age 30, its normal to lose one tablespoon of fat from the face per year. My usual recommendation is to be evaluated at one year and very likely receive a maintenance treatment.  At that time, you would probably need only one vial per year to keep looking great, rather than wait until it’s all gone. We can turn back the clock, but not stop it, so yearly maintenance is a great strategy to keep looking your best for decades. Please find a board-certified dermatologist to help you maintain long-term benefits with your Sculptra lift.

Hi Tiff,Great to hear that you are happy with your Sculptra treatment.  It is thought that once a patient reaches "full correction" after their injections they may benefit from "maintenance" treatment about 2 to 4 years later.  We are all unique so it is best to return to your physician for re-evaluation whenever you notice that you may be looking a little tired or that dreaded five letter word, saggy.  Good luck and be well.Dr. P
