I'm 44 with a thin face. My PS wanted to do 2 vival but I talked him into doing 3 because I want to get results without having to make so many trips. Is this safe?
Answer: More isn’t always better. The important thing to remember here is that Sculptra® in and of itself isn’t going to give you immediate results the way an HA filler would. Instead, Sculptra® works by promoting the body’s natural collagen production, and it’s the collagen itself that adds volume and improves the look of deep lines and wrinkles over time. Scheduling two sessions of Sculptra® treatments is the norm for the product, and you may not get the results you hope for by scheduling 3 vials all at once right now. Of course, it’s impossible for me to say which option is going to work best for you without a physical examination.

Answer: Is 3 vials of Sculptra for my face too much at one time? Is it safe? Yes.You acted responsibly by seeking out a surgeon for your injectable treatment. Listen to him and/or her. An overuse of Sculptra can create soft tissue complications. It is understandable that cost is a concern.The cost of surgery and/or procedures should never be an element in the decision of a surgeon’s ability to do his work appropriately and safely.The goal is to achieve the results that the patient desires, but to do it safely.
