Can Sculptra Results Show After Only 5 Days?

At just five days after your Sculpta injection, it is very unlikely that you are already seeing results.  You are likely seeing swelling from the injection or from the massage as you suggest.  It takes months and several treatments to see a full result.  Sculptra is a great product, but does not produce immediate results.  The tradeoff is that it will produce results that are more long lasting than most of the other "fillers."

 

Good Luck.

Thank you for your question. I would not anticipate seeing results from Sculptra in 1-2 weeks.  Time is needed for collagen to build and 1-2 weeks is just not enough time to see anything significant.  some residual swelling can account for the change. I hope this helps!

Sculptra works by stimulating new collagen production. It typically takes at least 1 month to create enough collagen to have a clinical result, so after 5 days this is unlikely related to the treatment and just swelling that will go away.  No studies have been done to determine whether fast metabolizer’s results are shorter, as Sculptra stimulates your own collagen it is not a synthetic filler, so you are not necessarily “metabolizing” it, but if you do lose weight secondary to your high metabolism, you will continue to lose fat in your face, just not the new collagen per se.
