Are there any side effects?
The most common side effects include tenderness or pain, redness, bruising, or swelling generally resolving in 2-6 days. As with all injections there is a risk of infection. One possible delayed side effect with Sculptra can be the formation of small bumps under the skin in the treated area. These small bumps may not be visible, and you may notice them only when you press on the treated skin. These bumps tend to form within the first 6 to 12 months after the first treatment. Visible bumps, sometimes with redness or color change to the treated area, have also been reported.
