Is sculptra advisable for someone with autoimune disorders?

Question

I have Alopecia Barbae and was wondering if this would be a problem if I wanted to get sculptra treatment. I think I read that sculptra was not advised for autoimmune disorders. Thanks

Anything that is a stress to the system can trigger an auto immune disease so this is something you should consider before doing any type of cosmetic treatment including Sculptra. There are rare reports of increased nodule development in people with auto immune diseases but we have never experienced this in our clinic.
Good luck and I hope this answer is helpful.
