Question

I am not sure if this is common for other pregnant woman but I definitely loss mass and volume to the lower part of my buttocks like it deflated.

We do Sculptra to the buttocks regularly.  They key for you is what is your current shape?  That is, have you lost all the baby weight and are back to your normal self?  Do you feel no more changes will occur?  If you are stable you should be able to do it almost anytime (though we would want to discuss some small issues about breast feeding, e.g. pump and dump).

It is generally recommended to wait until you have fully recovered from childbirth and received clearance from your healthcare provider before undergoing elective cosmetic procedures, including Sculptra injections to the lower part of the buttocks.Childbirth is a significant physical event that can have various effects on the body, and it's important to prioritize your overall health and well-being during the postpartum period. Factors such as hormonal changes, breastfeeding, and the recovery process should be taken into consideration.In general, medical professionals may recommend waiting several months after giving birth before considering cosmetic procedures. This period allows your body to heal, hormone levels to stabilize, and for you to adapt to the demands of motherhood.Before scheduling any cosmetic procedure, it's crucial to:1. Consult with Your Healthcare Provider: Obtain clearance from your obstetrician, gynecologist, or primary care provider to ensure that your body has adequately healed from childbirth and that you are in good overall health.2. Consult with a Qualified Provider: If you are interested in Sculptra injections or any other cosmetic procedure, schedule a consultation with a skilled and experienced provider. They can assess your individual situation, discuss your goals, and provide recommendations based on your specific needs and health status.3. Discuss Breastfeeding Status: If you are breastfeeding, it's essential to discuss this with your healthcare provider. Some medications, including Sculptra injections, and procedures may not be recommended during breastfeeding.Always prioritize your health as well as your child’s and follow the guidance of medical professionals when considering any elective procedure, especially during the postpartum period.
