How to Treat Sculptra Bumps?

Sculptra bumps are rarely seen anymore with new techniques of injecting and diluting Sculptra.  They will go away with time on their own.  If they are noticeable then they can be injected and broken up.  Depending on the location they can also be  surgically removed.  If you only feel the bumps I would let them be.  If they are visible then go see your doctor.  

Since Sculptra stimulates the formation of collagen, if the product is too close to the skin then the collagen can be felt as bumps. Changes in the technique of preparing and injecting Sculptra have contributed significantly to reducing palpable bumps from Sculptra injections. However, some bumps may be due to a more abnormal reaction of the body to the Sculptra and these may benefit from the injection of steroids into the affected sites. I believe that the scrupulous cleansing of skin and adherence to sterile technique can significantly reduce the incidence of granulomas. Nevertheless this problem can occur even if everything is done correctly. If you can feel but not see the bumps and they are otherwise asymptomatic just be patient and expect them to resolve slowly.
