Looking to get a Sculptra butt lift in Georgia/South Carolina area. Looking for something non surgical with minimum downtime?

Question

Hello. I've always had a small/athletic frame about 125lbs with a bubble butt. While pregnant I gain 50lbs. I'm over a year postpartum. I'm about 129 now. I've lost the weight by working out but my butt seems somewhat deflated now. I know I do not have the fat for a BBL. I am looking for something non surgical with minimum downtime. I want to my shape and volume back. If sculptra is the best option for me, I'm looking for a provider in the Columbia, Augusta, Atlanta GA area. Help!!

Sculptra can be effective for filling small surface irregularities or volume deficits, but it should not be expected to produce significant buttock augmentations.

Ryan A. Stanton, MD · Answer

I have unfortunately had many patients come to me after having their high hopes for buttock/hip augmentation crushed by measly Sculptra results or other "fillers" such as Renuva and Juvederm, etc. Other than the fact that these are not FDA approved for buttock/hip injections, here are some critical points of awareness: 1) they all are temporary, lasting 1.5 - 2 years at very most, 2) if done correctly, dermal fillers like Sculptra ir Renuva are cost prohibitive for 99% of potential buttock/hip augmentation patients. In order to create a significant/noticeable result with a dermal filler, at least 200 mls of active product (not just “total ccs of fluid injected” of which contains mostly saline not Sculptra) must be injected into each buttock cheek for a total of 400 mls. At $1000 per ml, this equates to a minimum price of $400,000.00. Thus if your doctor is recommending to put in ONLY 20 or 40 mls of these fillers you will pay $20,000-$40,000 and get an insignificant miniscule result! (eg. like a “drop in the ocean” effect), 3) Do not let anybody tell you that the product is so special that it's going to magically grow over the following months or years...this just doesnt happen to any noticeable degree!, 4) dermal fillers, when injected in large quantities, have a relatively high infection rate, guaranteed tendency to migrate away from the original area they were injected into, and almost always stimulate a lot of inflammation with a subsequent and disastrous amount of scar tissue/hardening, and 5) the one very serious complication that can rarely ( less than 1%) happen is "embolism" in which some of the filler gets into the blood stream and travels up into the lungs, heart, and/or brain causing serious problems, including death.

Hi! You would of course need a consultation to discuss your goals of a non-surgical BBL, but from your photos you look like a great candidate! Sculptra has minimal recovery, and is a great alternative for low BMI patients.

Based on your photos, I think you would like and do well with a Sculptra Butt Lift. It would take at least two sessions to add volume by stimulating collagen growth. That would add both volume and lift. 
The down time is insignificant. You could go back to work that same day.

Dmitriy Schwarzburg, MD · Answer

Sculptra is minimally invasive and has almost no down time. The only post care that you need is massaging the treatment area for 5 days post procedure. Other than that you can go back to work the day of the procedure. Be sure to consult with your doctor to see how many vials are appropriate for you!
