Hi doctors, I’m thinking of getting a Sculptra butt lift, but am a bit nervous. What are the risks? Is it a high risk area? Is there a possibility of it being lumpy? Is there possibility of necrosis? Etc Thank you!

Answer: Risks are low Every every surgical procedure or injection has some inherent risks. The type of injection that you are talking about, if done by an experienced person, should have a very low-risk profile. There is certainly a chance of a symmetry or an area that is firmer than another, however in my experience we have not seen these complications. Look at our videos to learn more

Answer: Buttock Lift -- Fat Grafting/Renuva, RF Tightening (Thermage, Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra, Inmode Forma/Contoura), Sculptra there is almost no risk with sculptra to the buttock with an experienced provider. Sculptra with the right dilution doesn't cause nodules in the buttock and is very safe. It should be combined with RF treatments to get the sculptra to work even better/stimulate it to produce collagen such as venus legacy / exilis ultra / thermage / inmode forma or contoura. We often will add bellafill or renuva to certain areas to improve indentations or the buttock roll to get more definition and softening or to improve overall size and shape. Smooth novathreads do very well to improve laxity of the buttock as well non surgically. Just know that sculptra takes numerous treatments and vials, its a large expense and must be maintained at least 2 times a year after a series of treatments for the best result. Dr. Emer.
