Besides Sunken Cheeks, What Other Areas Respond Best to Sculptra?

One of the most important things in facial aesthetics is to assess the entire face to determine where volume loss has occurred, rather than looking at one specific facial area, one wrinkle, or one fold.  As we age, we lose bone and fat in the temples, cheeks, and along the jawline.  Bone and fat serve as the "foundation" for our faces and when those atrophy, folds and wrinkles form.  Sculptra is an excellent choice in such a patient because it rebuilds the foundation over time, resulting in a natural look.  Of note, many of these areas are treated "off label."

Other areas that respond are the temples, the jawline, the jowl area, and the hollowing right in front of the ear area.  Experienced injectors may also place a little bit in the tear-trough area to give volume to this site.  Caution must be taken in that area, however.  Only qualified professionals who do a lot of Sculptra should be injecting in the tear trough.
