Sculptra™
Sculptra™, a dramatic new introduction to the list of cosmetic treatments, is a safe and biocompatible material that is injected below the surface of the skin in the area of fat loss. It produces large volume correction, unavailable until now, and an increase in skin thickness in sunken areas and deep folds of the face. In addition to the restoration of volume, the treatment generally provides a subtle lift in the contours of the face. The improvement provided by Sculptra™ increases over time and is long lasting. In studies, the effects of this treatment have been observed to remain in place for two years in most patients. Depending on the severity of the condition, 2-3 treatments may be necessary in order to achieve optimum results. Few side effects occur with Sculptra™, but may include slight redness or tenderness in the area of the injection for a short period of time.
Dr. Richey obtained his training in this procedure personally from Dr.Vleggar of France, the leading world expert in the use of Sculptra™. Since approval for use was granted internationally in 1999, this product has been used on 150,000 patients in 30 countries under the name of NewFill.
