Never: Never use sculptra in or near this lips. The risk of lumps and bumps that you will feel and even be visible is high. Do not do even consider this as an option.

Scuptra no for lips: Although it's tempting to go for long lasting fillers for lip augmentation, it's not a good idea. Sculptra is not made for lip augmentation and you could end up with permanent lumps. Restylane is fda approved for lip augmentation and often juvederm and belotero are used as well. These are safe for lips and although they do break down, safe is always the choice you want to make.

Sculptra lips : Sculptra should not be injected in the lips. It can form lumps and deform the lips.

No: I typically use juvederm. For a more lasting result fat transfer is a great option as well.

No: Do not use sculptra in the lips. It can be very lumpy. Use juvederm, restylane, (dermal fillers) belotero or one of the other ha gel fillers.
