Can I have a Sculptra butt lift if I'm still losing weight?

Question

My butt, is flat and sagging from weight loss, aging, and sitting at work for 20 years. I don't want a bigger butt, just to improve the shape. Still need to lose 25 pounds so not ready for BBL with fat transfer, but would like to improve appearance of butt with little down time before vacation in 3 weeks. Would sculptra butt lift give me some improvement? Does it feel natural?

Kimberly Butterwick, MD · Answer

Sculptra can add some volume and smooth out sagging skin, but it does take a series of treatments to achieve a beautiful result. It can be placed in key areas in order to reshape the buttocks. You might see modest benefit in three weeks but you wouldn’t be at your maximal results. As for the texture, Sculptra will feel and look perfectly natural. We only use diluted Sculptra in the buttocks area so that it’s nice and soft and smooth. Please find a board-certified dermatologist to get started on your Sculptra treatments so your buttocks will continue to improve throughout the summer.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

Yes, you can have Sculptra to improve the shape of the buttocks. Keep in mind, 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 Bellafill, fat or implants to achieve desired results. I recommend seeing a body shaping expert for a formal evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer.

Hi Macy1,Sculptra is effective and typically, you would need a series of treatments using 5-10 vials of Sculptra each time. Since you are building up your own collagen, results are not as immediate as a fat transfer. Results are more subtle and may not be too apparent yet during your vacation. It's perfectly fine to do this even while you are losing weight.All the best, Justin Harper, M.D.
