No. You
are definitely not too old for Sculptra. Sculptra is a great foundation for facial volume rejuvenation. It provides
a very natural infrastructure that can be built on as needed with other
fillers. Do not let your age deter you.
For the knees, I would use a combination treatment that includes Ulthera, fractional RF with Ematrix, Sculptra to add volume and collagen, and topical skincare. Best, DR. Karamanoukian Los Angeles
Sculptra does not stimulate pigment cell deposition of melanin. However, some patients have reported hemosiderin staining that may require laser treatment. Our experience with Sculptra has been very positive. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles
