I have had one treatment 11 weeks ago. How Long Can You Wait Between Sculptra Treatments?

December 15, 2011
Asked By:giia79 in australia

Hi, just wondering how long is the maximum you can wait between Sculptra treatments.. i have had one treatment 11 weeks ago. I am also nervous to go back for another because of all the negative information out there.. and i am especially worried about my face blowing up and looking like a chipmunk!! But just really want to know how long i can leave it before the first treatment will seem like a waste?
