Question

Joseph J. Castellano, MD · Answer

Based on your picture, it looks like you could be a great candidate for Sculptra® to provide a smoother look and feel. Keep in mind that Sculptra® won't add the dramatic volume that a Brazilian butt lift can, but it seems like you're just looking for a subtle improvement in the smoothness of your buttocks area, which can be achieved really nicely with Sculptra®. Just make sure you consult a cosmetic surgeon or other trained and experienced professional.

Yes, Sculptra can
be used to smooth out wrinkled skin and/or to give moderate volume to
the buttocks. Using Sculptra in the buttocks is an advanced
procedure, so if this is what you'd like to do please invest time in
finding the most qualified dermatologist to help you. The Sculptra
must be diluted and carefully placed to get a good result.

Sculptra
works by stimulating the skin to produce its own new collagen, so it
will take about 4 to 6 weeks before you see results. You can also use
Cellfina, which actually cuts the fibrous bands that cause dimples in
the buttocks and thighs. Both of these treatments can also be
combined, depending on patient need. Please find a board-certified
dermatologist to have your dimples evaluated to find out which
treatments would most benefit you.

Yes, Sculptra can help fill in buttock imperfections.  These imperfections are often due to cellulite.  Cellulite is treated in 3 ways.  Cut the bands pulling the skin in causing a dimple.  I prefer using Cellulaze but there are many methods.  Second, thicken the skin so the imperfections are not as visible. This can be done with both laser treamtents such as Cellulaze but also with Sculptra as it will cause dermal thickening when injected close to the dermis.  Third way to treat cellulite is to fill in the valleys.  Again, Sculptra when injected deep into the fat layer will add volume filling in the dimple.

Yes. Sculptra can be used for this issue off-label. I have used it  mostly for facial rejuvenation, but also on the arms, thighs, chest, and buttocks. It works nicely for cellulite and some post-liposuction contour problems.

Yes, Sculptra can be used to improve imperfections in the buttocks. It may take a series of vials to get improvement. See an expert for a formal evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer
