Sculptra FDA-approved for cosmetic use

Sculptra (aka Poly L Lactic Acid) has been around for a few years as an FDA-approved solution to facial atrophy. Many doctors, us included, have either used or read extensively about its use off-label for cosmetic applications, as it is an appealing filler that can last over two years in some cases.

What's unique about it is that, as this Early Show interview yesterday on CBS confirms, the filler actually attracts your body's natural collagen to help maintain the new structure that is being built in the face.

We have been very excited about Sculptra for a long time and covered it in the past here, here, and here.
