Will exercise damage a Sculptra butt lift?

Question

I want sculptra for a subtle correction in my butt. I lost volume due to Venus freeze being performed on my butt, instead of building collagen i lost a lot of fat. I just want small areas corrected so butt is symmetrical again. I work out everyday and do legs twice a week so If i do sculptra, will working out mess up my results or will it continue to work?

Kimberly Butterwick, MD · Answer

Sculptra is injected deeply into the dermis, and is not affected by exercise. Creating plump curves in the buttocks with Sculptra usually takes about 4 to 8 vials. These are injected in a series; not all at once. Sculptra works by stimulating collagen, so it takes a few months before you see your results. Sculptra lasts for 2 years or more. I usually recommend touch-ups every year to a year and a half with one to two vials. Please find a board-certified dermatologist to help you create a Sculptra butt lift, because it’s an advanced procedure that takes expertise.

Most likely not. I don't see a reason for exercise to damage a Sculptra Butt Lift. There is usually very little downtime required after the procedure.

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

You sound like a great candidate for the Sculptra Butt Lift.  You can continue to exercise afterward and the procedure is performed in the office.  There is little downtime and you are able to sit on the area immediately.  I encourage you to meet with an expert injector to learn more.

Thank you for sharing your excellent question.  Based on your narrative you sound as if you are an ideal Sculptra buttock augmentation candidate as little downtime would be needed and exercise will not impact your results.  Hope this helps.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

No, exercise will not negatively impact your results. The buttocks need numerous vials of Sculptra over time to build volume, and in some instances the results are subtle and will need to be combined with fat or implants to achieve desired results. Cost will vary due to skills, technique and expertise. I recommend seeing a body shaping expert for a formal evaluation.  Best, Dr. Emer.
