Results from Sculptra treatments are very gradual. I would say that after having two treatment sessions, the soonest you may begin to see any improvement would be about a month after your last treatment. You may not see the final result until a few months after the last treatment. To get the best result, it is also possible that you may need further treatments. Everyone is different, so some people need more Sculptra placed and/or more treatment sessions to obtain the optimal result.

Sculptra relies on your body's ability to form collagen. Our ability to form collagen never truly goes away, but does diminish with age. In addition we tend to lose more volume in our face when we get older. I don't hesitate to use Sculptra in someone older than 60, and it is...
If you are taking coumadin, you will have a greater risk of bleeding and bruising from your Sculptra treatment. As a result of the increased risk of bruising, you may also experience some more pain and this may make it challenging to massage the treated areas.
Hello Chickenwings ( at least you have a sense of humor) I would not recommend Sculptra in this situation. The defects that you show on photo would take several vials of Sculptra and would be quite expensive. Also with Sculptra you take a risk of developing nodules. Using my...
It is a bit difficult to fully assess with just these photos, but it may be that the area may be slightly overfilled. It would be best to follow-up with your physician and it may be worth having some hyaluronidase injected in to the area to see if the area improves.
