How Long does Sculptra Last? Sculptra Face Transformation Before and After

[@kirby2662]

my pet peeve is that before and afters are hardly ever taken in the same lighting 😅

[@NaturalInjector]

I apologize about that. The first time we did her treatment I was in another building location because the currently building I was out of was being designed and under construction so the room lighting was very different. Also I upgraded phones in between then so the quality of the camera was also different. Thank you for your comment.

The results still speak for themselves even if the lighting is a bit different. Amazing results!

Last August I was 79 and had my first sculptra treatment....the end of October my second. This past April I turned 80 and I wasn’t sure about a difference..it is hard to tell because we see ourselves every day!! Earlier this month, June, I had my third treatment and saw pictures from my first to now. All I can say is WOW👍👍 there was a big difference! My face was better and brighter...but my neck😁😁 a huge difference. Can’t wait to see pictures in a couple of months. I’ll have another treatment next year sometime. I totally recommend getting sculptra if your on the fence..do this and not a face lift..it looks more natural. Good luck!

[@NaturalInjector]

Thank you so much for sharing your story Karen! I always encourage people to look at their before and after photos because the results come on gradual. It’s also hard to wait on the results.

[@jayMM000]

1:19 very missleading pictures :-/ the before was taken with a totally different lens width and less lighting

[@NaturalInjector]

There is variation as the before photo was taken on an iPad pro that was 2 years and 4 months older than my most recent phone. I always upgrade my photography. Also I started taking photos on portrait mode. However if you look past the difference in lighting and lens you can see that in the areas mentioned, her temples especially, the skin tissue has indeed thickened. It’s very difficult to be consistent with the same photography equipment as over 2 years has passed. I have other photos on my website that were taken in more consistent lighting and camera equipment that you are welcome to look at.

[@Nalenja]

As you are an expert: Can Sculptra also be used if you have autoimmune diseases such as neurodermatitis or thyroid dysfunction? I have heard of patients who, even years later, still have up- and downcreasing swelling and pain from Sculptra. It is quite terrifying because they say , they look like chipmunks, are in pain and nobody can really help them. It seems like a long term inflammatory.

[@NaturalInjector]

@@Nalenja I would consult with the provider you choose but I have done Sculptra for people who have certain autoimmune disease. I have not ever heard of someone having bouts of swelling after Sculptra or pain. If your provider hits close to a nerve it’s possible to get pain, it happened to me once for weeks but it was not the Sculptra it was the needle that hit close to a nerve and this can happen with any injection.

[@Nalenja]

@@NaturalInjector Thank you so much for your answer. 🍀 It sounded more like a long lasting inflammation and it seems to last for years. But I couldn’t find something professional about it - there are only several records from patients with that issue, who write, that the inflammation lasted in between 3-6 years and made a puffy / very broad and hurting face , and that’s quite scary.

Hi, I would love to do sculptra. How many vials are normally used to help lift nasal folds and shagginess around mouth areas? Also, who should not get sculptra? I really appreciate your informative videos?

[@NaturalInjector]

Hi Annie. It’s difficult to say as one vial would be used to treat multiple areas of the face rather than just around the mouth and nasolabial folds. You may notice an improvement to those areas after one vial and the number of vials you need also depends on how much of an improvement you want to see. Scultpra can be used in most people but extra caution should be taken if someone has keloids or collagen vascular disease.

Filler does not go away and you don’t “go back to looking the same” there is damage done

[@EadsB7002]

i think this is what i'm gonna go with over filler...i'm a runner (just short distances now) but since i turned 40, i've seen a lot of volume loss (without losing any actual weight).. i'm guessing it would take a lot of filler to create any real result.

[@kite6864]

what do you think of diluted radiesse? would it be longer lasting? give more collagen than sculptra? or even use both?

[@NaturalInjector]

I’m not a big fan of believing that Radiesse is a true collagen stimulator like Scultpra. I’ve tried the non diluted Radiesee several years ago and I never saw any collagen stimulation. It doesn’t make sense to me that hyper-diluting it would change it to a collagen stimulator. I I know the company says so and many ppl use hyperdiluted Radiesse but I just don’t think it’s in the same class as Scuptra, which is a true collagen stimulator. When you do Radiesee, even hyperdiluted, it will give you an immediate result, so it’s hard to tell what’s the collagen stimulation when it’s filling your tissue immediately and staying filled for a few months. With Sculptra, the results go away in 3 days because it’s from water, so any correction or volume you get thereafter is from true collagen stimulation.

[@colinscotts2390]

I was sold on Sculptura until I went to RealSelf and read reviews where some patients wrote the injections had their face "grow" past the point of recognition.

I have never seen this in all my years and neither has the doctor I work with who was one of the first ppl to use Sculptra. It would be interesting to know if those people making those claims had filler done on their faces also. Did they provide photos on Realself?

@@lejla9358 This med does seem to be a biologic which can possibly effect you mounting an inflammatory response to Sculptra, which is required to build collagen.

I would definitely recommend following up with your provider and looking at your photos.

Great question! Did you look at your before and after photos with your provider? Has it been at least 3 months since your last session?

It hasn't been 3 months yet since the last vial and I know I should be patient as it takes time, but it's hard to see your face deteriorate so rapidly and then to keep having to wait and wait for results after each treatment. They're very conservative with Sculptra where I live, so they make you wait the full 3-4 months between each vial. Before you know it a year has passed and you're still very far from where you want to be.

There are only a few very experienced Sculptra injectors here, so I made sure to seek them out and not just go to anyone, but they're all pretty conservative about it here. You have to wait at least 3 months after each injection, whereas in the US it seems the protocol is several injections with about 2 weeks in between initially, then wait a few months to see if more is needed. It's just taking a lot more time than I was hoping so I feel like I lost time where I could have looked and felt better. Up until 2 years ago, I looked significantly younger than I was, then after wisdom tooth removal and Invisalign my face just caved in on me. I aged 10 years in about 6 months. It's still very hard getting used to my new face. It could technically just be natural aging, as I'm 44 now, but I'm not sure if it's supposed to go this fast. Have you ever had a patient that aged very rapidly in such a short time span? Is it unusual for it to deteriorate this quickly and suddenly?

@@santanacaipirinha9536 Hi Santana. Thanks for sharing your experience. I have had one patient recently age kind of fast and we are trying to figure it out. We may do 2 vials initially in the US and then wait maybe 6 weeks if we think the person will definitely need more than 2 vials. It could be the hormonal change due to perimenapause.

Why does running cause collagen loss? What about bike riding

[@NaturalInjector]

Exercise helps you burn calories and fat and when your body is very lean with minimal body fat, the less likely you are to have fat in your face. Running is a really good aerobic activity which is very healthy for your body and heart overall but it tends to show in your face because it’s a great activity to burn calories. Bike riding can also make you very lean. Basically anything you do with high intensity cardio can cause you to be more lean, which in return will show volume loss more so than people who don’t work out or are at a higher body weight. Have you ever heard the term “there comes a time where you have to choose your fanny or your face?” This is where it comes from. Having low body fat may look great on the body but not so much the face.

@Annie G. Yes that’s true. That can be helpful

[@justagirl7780]

word of mouth is always best, length of time working and with this particular product especially is key (I would should for 10+ years), and a general sense that they are honest and not desperate to take money at the cost of your well being.

Can we get sculptra 3 months post stopping roacutane

[@liviusss]

Her undereye looks so much better... I wonder if it's from the volume/collagen created by Sculptra 🤔

[@NaturalInjector]

No we didn’t treat her under eyes. It was different lighting as I was in a different practice location and I upgraded my camera. Also, she had a migraine when we did her Sculptra the first time and she always feels like she sees it in her face when she gets a migraine. She gets a very tired look.

[@MP-dz2ki]

Great results, but why then repeat 1-2 times per year? Isn´t that too frequent? What do you think qbout Ellanse?

[@luscious_unicorn]

What about sculptra on hips

[@IrinaEryn]

Sculptra can create nodules, especially if someone has an autoimmune disease. It is bad that these side effects are intentionally skipped in such videos on KZbin for marketing /sales reasons. These side effects are well mentioned to all practitioners trained to inject Sculptra.

[@NaturalInjector]

Thank you for your comment but what’s bad is that you are accusing me of intentionally skipping the topic when I addressed it in it’s own separate video 👉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/n4ebe6BnpK96gpI. This video topic covered what was stated in the title. I have many videos on Sculptra and as a KZbinr we can choose how we want to address topics, as I am not being paid by any company to create videos. This is not a drug commercial sponsored by a pharmaceutical company that has millions of dollars behind them. Pharmaceutical companies that do commercials on medications are required to say the side effects on the commercial. I am not obligated to create videos period, and as such, I am not obligated to cover side effects. Whatever topic I cover is because I choose to cover it, whether it be on the subject of the drug or it’s side effect. It takes a considerable amount of time to create videos, and I choose to do so to educate the prospective audience who has questions and concerns about FDA approved injectables that I treat people with. It is ultimately up to you to do all of the research on treatments that you may be interested in and it is not our responsibility as content creators to create videos that address every single concern in one video. I don’t know about you but I love KZbin and I find it a very good source of information, but with that being said if I found a topic on something and the creator did not address every single question or concern I had I wouldn’t accuse them of purposely leaving it out in order to sell. I would be happy that they created a video in the first place because I know how much time it takes to create content and that it is ultimately my responsibility to research the questions and concerns I have.

Had Sculptra in periaucular areas 3.5 weeks ago and am still swollen/puffy. Is this normal? My injector told me it would not widen my face, but it has.

[@NaturalInjector]

It can make the face more 3 dimensional yes which is not necessarily a bad thing as we are m ore 3 dimensional when we’re younger. I’m not sure how many vials you had but the fullness is caused by the water which gets reabsorbed a few days later.

[@melaniecox3504]

I’m not sure I understand your question. Are you asking if Sculptra can be used on the forehead?

[@alatsaf]

@@NaturalInjector yes can Sculptra be used on the forehead for the fat loss on the forehead area. Thank you.

[@josef2158]

Can sculptra be used to raise an indented scar?

[@NaturalInjector]

It all depends on the scar. Filler may be better if the scar is very small because you can go very superficial with filler.

[@alexworm1707]

The changes in camera lenses on the before and after photos is just ridiculously misleading lmao. Its like they used a 35mm lens on the before and took the pic very close to the subject and with the after they used a 50mm lense and took the photo far away from the subject.

[@NaturalInjector]

As mentioned in other comments they were taken with different cameras and different rooms so the lighting was different. It had been over 2 years so I moved practices and upgraded the camera but I’ll be coming out with another video with more of the same lighting.

[@geetasingh4221]

Can you use sculptra for crows feet and the eye area?

[@NaturalInjector]

No you can’t use Sculptra around the eyes. Botox or other neuromodulators would help crows feet

[@Lulu-kt6gr]

@@NaturalInjector but doesn’t it help under the eyes?

[@NaturalInjector]

@@Lulu-kt6gr You shouldn’t get Sculptra under the eyes but sometimes when you correct other areas with Scultpra it help the whole face overall look better

[@anyariv]

I wish doctors and aestheticians would have the same lighting in before and dafter and not have a darker, more contrasty lighting in the before. It's not giving an accurate picture.

[@NaturalInjector]

You’re right it is different lighting because I was in different practice locations and the rooms had different lighting. Also I had upgraded my phone, so the quality of the camera was also different. I have other videos on my Scultpra playlist which has more consistent lighting so if you’re curious you can check those out

ok I'm going to blow your mind here. ......... I just started putting a raw egg / honey mask on overnight. I also infused olive oil for full range of vits and mins for moisturizer. .... now besides vits and mins, (including massive dose of retinol,) the eggs provide 18 of 20 amino acids. ... I guess this stuff is all absorbed into the skin. .............. so wtf do I want injectables and stuff? why aren't my eggs going to provide same results?

[@NaturalInjector]

Very Interesting! I don’t know where to start with answering your question of why putting raw eggs and honey on your face, are not going to be the same as having your face injected with Sculptra.

[@grandfury5609]

Every photo I've seen at the spa was in completely different lighting. I personally paid $3400 for 4 vials and didn't see any difference I felt so duped and robbed I could have done so much more w that money. Lesson learned. 😡

[@NaturalInjector]

So you looked at your before and after photos and there was no difference?

[@grandfury5609]

@@NaturalInjector yes I took photos myself. I have frown lines and was misled into believing they would fade or disappear and I would also look 2 years younger with only 3 vials. I WAS SO EXCITED!! But when I didn't respond they said I needed another vial and when I showed no progress again, they pushed me to buy "additional vials" for a discounted price, only then I caught on to what was going on 💸💸. I also noticed when they photographed me, they angled the lighting in the room closer and moved the lens closer to my face, the ladies at the clinic all gaslighted me into believing I had significant changes in my skin tone too but I didn't, and there was absolutely NO change to my FROWN lines ☹️ and at the end of the day they tried to sell me more vials. 😩 Long story short, almost 4k in the hole with a tad bit smoother skin in the end. Hyaluronic acid would have done the same for a fraction of the cost. I feel like some of these people prey on desperate pple such as myself into believing they own a time machine in a vial, laser, etc. Also I now have a scar tissue like skin tag over one of the injection sites. ☹️ "Never again"😬 I should have done more research but when someone sells that kind of idea I personally took the hook, line and sinker.

[@GabbyBorrego]

how do people afford this stuff :( I need my nose fixed, but ... ill never be able to afford it.

I will consider doing a video on this topic and let ppl know what does it cost to maintain their youthful look. Most practices accept credit cards where you can make monthly payments.
