] may be a game changer.The FDA has just approved Sanofi’s drug called Sculptra for cosmetic use. Widely used on patients who have become gaunt due to long-term illness, Sculptra can now be used by anyone who wants to turn back the hands of time and appear younger.
"Nothing works like Sculptra," says Brent Ragans of Sanofi-Aventis US. Sculptra has already won over some doctors and patients.
One advantage is its longevity; it can last up to two years while rivals such as Botox last a year or less, adds Ragans. Another advantage is Sculptra’s ability to address broader depressions like sunken cheeks.
Doctors nationwide charge $800 to $1,200 per Sculptra, writes the New York Times which profiled the new treatment back in September.
The paper also says “the drawbacks of Sculptra include the need for several treatments in some cases the need to massage the treated area for up to a week, and the risk of developing lumps beneath the skin.
As for what all this means for Sanofi shares, well that remains to be seen.
