I'm considering getting sculptura but I'm afraid of granuloma and nodule formation. What can one do if a granuloma or nodule forms? Does this treatment really work to improve tightening of the face and how often does this have to be redone? Is this something that permanently remains?

Answer: Nodule Formation with Sculptra Hi there, Unfortunately, if it is not mixed properly or in advance, the risk of granuloma formation increases with the use of sculptra. The recommendation is that sculptra is massaged 5 x a day for 5 days for 5 minutes. If you follow these guidelines and pick an injector who knows how to properly use and place sculptra, the results are phenomenal! Julie, BSN, RN

Answer: Sculptra and Nodules The problem with nodules was that some clinicians don't know how to reconstitute the product properly and well in advance on the procedure. In addition, proper massage of the product must be done five times a day for five minutes for five days. In this way, nodules do no form. Please consult an expert in Sculptra injections. The procedure needs to be redone once a month for three months or until correction and lasts about two years. Best, Dr. Green
