How Does Sculptra Build Collagen if It's Injected into Muscle (Temple)?

Asked By:jennyct in Connecticut, CT

I did not think you can stimulate collagen of the skin by injecting into the muscle. I would think it would just dissipate without leaving any semi-permanent improvement. Does anyone know the mechanism behind this?
