Would Sculptra help with volume loss on the sides of my forehead? (photos)

Question

Interested in sculptra and areas it would improve on my face. On the sides of my forehead I’ve had some volume loss. Would sculptra work on the sides?

Anna Chacon, MD, FAAD · Answer

Thank you for sharing your photos and question—it really helps to see the areas you’re concerned about. Sculptra is a collagen-stimulating filler that works gradually to restore volume and improve skin quality over time.

Regarding the sides of the forehead:

Sculptra can help add subtle volume and improve contour, but the forehead is a delicate area, and results are more gradual compared with traditional hyaluronic acid fillers.

Multiple sessions are often needed to achieve noticeable improvement, as Sculptra works by stimulating your own collagen rather than providing instant volume.

If the goal is a more immediate lift or correction of hollowing, sometimes a combination of Sculptra and a small amount of hyaluronic acid filler can give both immediate and long-term improvement.

Sculptra is effective for gradual, natural-looking volume restoration, including on the sides of the forehead, but patience is required to see full results. The approach should be tailored carefully to avoid overcorrection and maintain a natural contour.

I gave up using Sculptra quite a few years ago. It was expensive, typically required about three treatment sessions to achieve any visible results, and could not be dissolved easily should there be any adverse reactions or undesirable results.
By contrast, the use of appropriate HA fillers typically gives rise to immediate results after one treatment session and can be dissolved with hyaluronidase should the need arise. 
You would be wise to consult with an experienced, board certified cosmetic dermatologist filler expert. 
And one more piece of advice. You would also be wise NOT to go into any consult asking for some particular treatment, whether it is for an injectable or some expensive, "bells and whistles" gizmo, such as fraxel lasers or RF devices, because to your later frustration, disappointment and financial loss, you are likely to get what you ask for. 
Hope this helps and best of luck.

Even now sculpture can be used in the face to treat hallows, you need to come across an extremely talented injector who anticipates the expansion of the product overtime. My advice is to use fat grafting. When fat grafting is done by an expert fat grafting specialist, the results are extremely natural practically permanent. Using fat can create any shape or form you desire I hope and good luck from Leonard Grossman MD Plastic & Reconstructive surgeon.
