Guest guest Posted July 4, 2006 Report Share Posted July 4, 2006 This is a very interesting proposition. Not sure about collagen, but how about increasing your fat intake to replenish as much as possible the depleted and malfunctioning fat cells? If one is wealthy, one could increase supplementation with fax seed or evening primrose oil, and the poor man's version would be taking copious quantities of extra virgin olive oil. It is possible that adipose cells, which are the carriers of the subcutaneous fat, may have been annihilated by the HIV drugs, but just maybe they are just disfunctional and deflated. If the latter case, by providing them lots and lots of fat, maybe it would be possible to gradually naturally change the course of lipoatrophy. Have to be careful not to do this with saturated fats though, in case you want to avoid a heart attack right before success. > > I recently had my fourth Sculptra treatment and am very pleased with > the results in my face.
