i have low body fat and hoolow/thinning cheeks. will patient see any noticeable results after 1st treatment?
Answer: Amount of Sculptra Treatments
Thank you for your question. The usual dose is one vial per decade of life. Sometimes, more is needed as this is just a general guideline, and for some, less yields great results. Everyone is different and this is a slower process, but with the chance of longer lasting results. I hope this helps!

Answer: Number of Sculptra vials in cheeks of thin patients is variable
Each patient is very unique. Sculptra helps to stimulate collagen production 2-6 months after injection, therefore after a one on one consultation we will decide how to approach your cheeks that you feel are hollowing. Often times I can reduce the number of vials needed by having the patient start an aggressive skincare regimen so that your skin looks better but more importantly your skin is actively turning over. This will work synergistic with the collagen growth under the skin from the Sculptra injections.

Answer: Appropriate treatment for restoring volume with Sculptra
For significantly thin/hollow cheeks, often 2 vials of Sculptra will be necessary for the initial treatment to give your skin a little "jump" start to start produce new collagen. You will certainly have a discernible difference, but probably not a "significant" one. 2-3 treatments spaced 4-6 results will give you noticeable and significant volume enhancement. One of the big advantages of Sculptra is that the volume gain is gradual, so people around you will have a hard time figuring out how you are looking younger with fuller cheeks.

Answer: Results After Sculptra Treatment
Although I love Sculptra as a facial volumizer, it requires a different mindset than the average filler in terms of expectations. One of the most critical aspects about this product (L-poly Lactic Acid) is patient education and understanding the product. Most patient require 2-3 treatment sessions spaced by 4 weeks, which generally correlates with 4-6 vials. In circumstances of severe volume loss, this may require additional treatment sessions. The degree of correction after the 1st treatment session will disappoint the uneducated patient. Most patients see appreciable results 4-6 weeks after the 2nd or 3rd treatment. Sculptra requires more finesse and knowledge of facial anatomy than standard fillers, so choose your injector wisely.
