Sculptra®
As we mature, we develop a loss of fat below our cheeks and temples. This leads to a loss of volume giving the appearance of sunken cheeks, indentations, and hollow eyes. Sculptra® is FDA approved for lipoatrophy and acts as a sculpting agent to restore volume and correct the signs of facial fat loss.
