#rd Treatment on 11/08/13

WORTH IT$1,500
I saw my MD on 11/08 and decided to have one further Sculptra treatment. It went well. Minimal bruising and she concentrated more on my cheek bones and temples to try to give me more of a lift. I am looking forward to the results. No matter cosmetic procedures for me for awhile! I'll post pics in a few weeks once the initial swelling goes down.

Hello everyone! I will be posting new pics in a few weeks. I just want to let all the residual swelling go down before I post.

Hi Kim, thx for posting your experience with sculptra. I have an appt with Dr. Mraz next month and I'm wondering how you progress is going. I'm really nervous about the procedure so any feedback you can give me will be great:)

Hi Fayev, I am so, so, so happy with my progress. I am thinking about going back in the fall for a boost up. You will love Dr. Mraz. I actually try to find reasons to go and see her, she is wonderful. Don't be nervous. I think you will be thrilled with the results. Good luck and keep me posted!

Hi KimR, am I so happy to hear that you are happy with your results! From the pics you've posted so far, you look great! Did you notice more improvement after the 2nd treatment? I agree with you that it's important to find a highly qualified physician to perform the injections. I've read a few negative reviews from other members on here but your review gives me hope:)

I wanted to post an updated pic. I think my face is still looking better. I am debating on whether to get one more treatment or to wait until it has been a year and then perhaps do 2 more. I am so happy I got this treatment!

I can see the difference. What is good is you still look like you, but fresher, younger. Well done you

Thanks for the review. I like the idea of sculptura because the results are gradual.

Almost 4 months post 1st treatment

I took this tonight. It is 5 days away from 4 months since my first Sculptra treatment. I do have to let you know though I did have a Belotera treatment around my lip area for wrinkles and fine lines. So that helped there. Not sure I got $500 worth of results, but I had to try it since the lines around my mouth drive me nuts.

Back to Sculptra though... I definitely, am seeing my face plumping up. I feel it in my cheek bones when I wash my face and I notice my face looking better. My sister noticed that my face is looking better too. What do you think?

You face does look a little fuller to me in the July 10th picture, compared to the one taken 6 weeks post op. Its subtle.

I think your skin looks fantastic! I hope you continue to see fab results! The permanence if sculptra makes me nervous, but since I'm close to taking an iron to my dynamic (why they call them dynamic is a mystery) cheek wrinkles, I'm on the hunt for a solution...lacking patience at 49,! Yikes :)

I definitely see a difference in the latest picture. Your face looks softer and fuller. Subtle yet significant. Congrats.
