Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.      
How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Misplaced sculptra

Has anyone recovered from sculptra disfigurement? My whole face looks lumpy and scarred. I avoid mirrors as much as I can but I am still in shock after almost three years every time I see myself. It is like I have been in a severe car accident.

This is so depressing

I have lost hope that I will get better. These photos are by no means my worst. I am too embarrassed to post my really bad ones but this should give you some idea. My entire face was destroyed.

Approaching 3 years

I can't believe it's been almost three years and I'm still deformed. My lumps are getting larger and I have developed new deformities. I am in a lot of pain. I can't believe I paid a doctor to inject something that not only made me sick but has caused disfigurement. I continue to see my doctor's ads promoting sculptra in my city magazine. Looking back at his reviews on here they come across as so phony. I can't believe I fell for this scam. Does anyone know of a doctor who can remove this without severe disfigurement?

I went to shino bay aguilera do in Fort Lauderdale because of the good reviews on realself. When I met the doctor he suggested sculptra. He told me this was a safe natural injectable. I now know the doctor was a paid consultant for the company. I was under 30, and had good skin. I used to get mistaken for a college student. I was really naive and trusted the doctor. My face is destroyed now in so many ways. I was not a candidate for sculptra and it was injected improperly in places that aren't FDA approved.
