I do not like the look of fullness in face after doing sculptura for the first time. I wanted wrinkles smoothed out not full face. 2 vales were used and it was my first treatment done 2 days ago. What can I expect from the treatment.
Answer: Sculptra - what to expect after injection This injectable filler has significantly more volume than others and therefore the immediate look may not represent the final look at 1 month. Once the water is resorbed, the Sculptra will start stimulating collagen production.

Answer: Sculptra immediate effects are due to water volume. The fullness you are experiencing is due to the volume of water that was injected with the Sculptra and will go away within a few days. The Sculptra particles will then go to work to provide a subtle, gradual increase in fullness. One treatment will provide some volume but most likely not optimal correction - but this depends greatly on your age, the quality of your skin, activity level, and volume deficit. I think that the most important thing to review with your physician is your primary concern. Perhaps the wrinkles you describe would be best addressed with a laser resurfacing treatment as opposed to Sculptra. We have so many tools these days for specific skin changes, and these need to be chosen to meet your unique needs.
