An intact immune system, as the bio-stimulatory effect of Sculptra® Aesthetic is dependent on the host response. Immune function will be evaluated through clinical history. Exclusions will consist of both primary (genetic) and secondary (acquired) immune deficiencies. Examples include: HIV/AIDS, chemotherapy, cancers (e.g., leukemia and lymphoma), certain autoimmune diseases (e.g., myasthenia gravis, systemic lupus erythematosus), certain medications (e.g., corticosteroids, tumor necrosis factor inhibitors, anticonvulsants), and certain chronic or congenital diseases. Any type of comorbidity or clinical condition will be reviewed at the investigator's discretion.
