SCULPTRA FOOT INJECTIONS
Restore Comfort and Confidence in Every Step
Over time, the natural fat pad that cushions the ball of your foot can thin and shift, leaving the delicate bones and nerves exposed to painful pressure. This condition, known as fat pad atrophy, is a common cause of metatarsalgia, a generalized term for pain in the ball of the foot.
Dr. Krista Archer offers an innovative, cosmetic foot solution using Sculptraยฎโan off-label injectable filler designed to restore lost volume, reduce pain, and bring comfort back to your steps.
What Causes Ball of Foot Pain?
Ball of foot pain, or metatarsalgia, can occur for several reasons, but fat pad loss is one of the most common culprits, particularly in:
-
Women who frequently wear high heels
-
Individuals with naturally thin foot padding
-
People experiencing age-related fat pad thinning
Without adequate cushioning, walking, standing, or wearing heels becomes increasingly uncomfortable, often leading to burning pain or the formation of calluses under the foot.
Sculptraยฎ Foot Injections: A Cosmetic Approach to Foot Padding
Sculptra (poly-L-lactic acid) is an FDA-approved dermal filler used to restore lost facial volume. While Sculptra is not FDA-approved for use in the foot, it is widely used off-label by cosmetic foot specialists like Dr. Archer to replenish cushioning under the ball of the foot and relieve pain caused by fat pad loss.
Key benefits of Sculptra foot injections:
-
Stimulates your bodyโs own collagen production for longer-lasting results (typically over a year)
-
Creates a natural, cushioned feel under the forefoot bones
-
Allows many patients to comfortably return to wearing high heels
-
Requires 2โ3 treatment sessions for optimal results
What to Expect After Sculptra Injections
-
Minimal discomfort during the procedure
-
Immediate return to walking post-treatment
-
Significant improvement in both foot comfort and appearance
-
Many patients report enhanced physical and emotional well-being after treatment
