Answer: Yes, Sculptra is very safe and effective when injected in the right candidate. Yes, Sculptra is very safe and effective when injected in the right candidate in an appropriate location by a skilled, board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon. It’s a great way to achieve long-lasting, natural volumization. I would recommend finding someone with experience using injectables, Sculptra specifically, because there is a risk of nodule formation if injected in the wrong area by someone inexperienced. Sculptra works by injecting a solution of tiny particles that then stimulate your own cells to make more collagen within 4 – 6 weeks. Usually 3 or more sessions at least one month apart are necessary for optimal results. In your sixties, your cells may respond a little slower, but I still think you can have an excellent response.

Answer: Sculptra experience Thank you for your question. Sculpture is a great injectable to help shape and restore volume to the face. It is a very nuanced injectable filler and experience definitely makes a big difference as to the final outcome and results. I am a trainer for Sculptra, as well as the other injectable agents, and know firsthand that there is a wide variety of experience out there even among plastic surgeons and dermatologists. I suggest you go to a board-certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist who has a high volume of injectable fillers, and who does a high volume of sculptra in their practice.

Answer: Really safe I have over 12 years experience with Sculptra. It is simply fantastic and underutilized in cosmetic surgery because it doesn't give an immediate result. It takes several weeks to see the positive changes and often several visits to accomplish them but it lasts for 2 years and gram for gram is the most bang for the buck of ANY INJECTABLE. Just look at the results and you will be convinced. I have a nurse in her 50's and and her 80 year old mother who both look incredible and have returned after the initial 2 years because they were so satisfied.
