Risk for Sculptra with Keloid Conditions?

While I know that the insert for Sculptra states not to use in patients with history Keloids, I have never heard of or seen personally or  in the literature a case of keloid from sculptra injection.  I have talked to many physicians who use Sculptra and none has seen a keloid.  As you have experienced personally, risk of keloids are greatest on chest and back and it is rare to see one on the face and the needle sticks from sculptra are not traumatic enough to cause keloid.  While nodules is a risk of sculptra these nodules are not keloids and can occur in patients without a history of keloids.   However, if you are uncomfortable and prefer not to get the treatment, I would think you should be able to get a refund.

First, If you are worried, I suggest discussing your concerns with your physician.  You two may decide on a different filler with your history of keloids.  I would hesitate to inject a persons face with Sculptra if they had severe keloiding.
