Does Sculptra Buttlift cause your butt to feel hard? (Photo)

Question

I have hip dips and would like to get them filled in however, I’m not interested in fat transfer... so I’m thinking about getting sculptra buttlift to fill in my hips to look more round and give me a curvier look but my main concern is, I don’t want to get sculptra if that is going to make my hips feel like a rock. I’ve met women with buttcheeks that don’t even feel like buttcheeks it’s as hard as a brick wall and I definitely don’t want that. So is sculptra buttlift right for me? Or definitely a no go.

No, Sculptra injections into the thigh and buttock area will not feel hard.  Just the opposite.  Sculpra will stimulate your own bodies production of its own natural collagen.  You will not be able to distinguish it from your own fat in the injected areas.  Most of my patients require 2 treatments spaced 1 month apart using 10 vials per treatment with a touch up every two years.

Sculptra will enhance your curves but it should not make your butt feel hard because the product is injected deep. It's a great option for those who want a rounder butt.

I have not seen or felt a hard buttock after Sculptra. I would say some patients are firmer, but not hard. The skin also looks less flabby and in better overall shape after Sculptra.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO

Thank you for your questions. The short answer is no, Sculptra injections should not cause hardness. However, in my opinion, Sculptra use for buttock augmentation is often very cost prohibitive due to the large amount of product needed to produce decent results. Make sure you see a local board certified plastic surgeon for a consultation to discuss your options.Best of luck!

No, Sculptra won't make your butt feel hard. Sculptra can improve the buttocks. The buttocks need numerous vials of Sculptra over time to build volume, and in some instances the results are subtle and will need to be combined with fat or implants to achieve desired results. Cost will vary. I recommend seeing a body shaping expert for a formal evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for sharing your question and photographs.  Once your results mature, Sculptra does not leave tissues hard.  It will take a series of treatments to reach your goals but if you are not interested in fat transfer Sculptra is a good option.

If injected too superficially it may feel a bit hard. If injected at an appropriately deep level it may feel a bit firm to touch but that’s normal. Overall it feels completely natural to touch.

Sculptra will not make the treated area feel hard and is a nice alternative for those looking for improvement without surgery.  The procedure can be performed in the office with no downtime.  You are able to immediately sit on the area and can resume normal activities.  See an expert injector in your area.

Richard E. Moore, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question. No, Sculptra will not make your butt hard as it works by promoting your own body's production of collagen. What you have seen is more likely injections of silicone. Keep in mind that it can take a fairly large number of vials of Sculptra to achieve the enhancement you desire. It can range from 10 to 40 or more vials. You will also find a wide range of pricing around the country ranging from $400/vial to $1000 or more per vial.I hope this was helpful - Dr. Moore.

Steven F. Weiner, MD · Answer

The area corrected by Sculptra does not turn hard. It is firmer than fat but not rock hard. It is a great alternative to implants and for people without much fat to graft. It requires no downtime and immediate sitting is permissible, unlike the BBL. I do it in sessions of about 8 vials and repeat in 3-4 months.
