A member asked:
I had a hip replacement in march of 2020. it left my hips looking a little uneven and i was wondering if it is safe to get sculptra to help even them out?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes and no: Sculpture can build up soft tissue in small areas but it takes quite a long time and multiple injections for it to work. Another option would be consider smoothing out both hips with liposuction which will actually take the bulk off and approve the contour significantly.
