Sculptra
Restore volume to your face and stimulate collagen production.
About Sculptra
Sculptra is an injectable that helps restore facial volume that has been lost due to aging and stimulates collagen production. It is different from HA fillers because it gradually and subtly corrects facial wrinkles and folds.
Sculptra is made from a synthetic material called poly-L-lactic acid, which is gradually and naturally absorbed by the body as it works to replace lost collagen.
What is Sculptra?
How does Sculptra work?
Sculptra is a dermal filler treatment that is used to restore facial volume and improve the appearance of lines, wrinkles, and folds on the skin. It consists of Poly-L-lactic acid, which works by stimulating the body's natural collagen production.
Sculptra works by addressing the underlying cause of aging skin from loss of collagen. Once injected in the face, Sculptra stimulates the natural growth of new collagen. This leads to restoration of facial volume over time and a dramatic improvement of the skin texture. Sculptra is a popular option for individuals seeking non-surgical facial rejuvenation and volume restoration. It provides long-lasting results and offers a natural-looking outcome.
During the treatment, Sculptra is injected into the desired areas of the face through a series of injections. The number of injections required may vary depending on the individual's specific needs and goals.
After the injections, Sculptra works gradually to stimulate collagen production in the treated areas. This helps to replenish lost facial volume and improve the overall texture and smoothness of the skin. Results typically become more noticeable over time, with optimal results usually achieved after a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart.
Sculptra treatments are generally well-tolerated, although some patients may experience temporary redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site. These side effects tend to resolve on their own within a few days.
The duration of Sculptra results can vary from person to person, but they typically last up to two years or longer. Regular touch-up treatments may be recommended to maintain the desired aesthetic outcome.
During your consultation, your injector and skincare expert will address your skin concerns, discuss your goals and then recommend whether Sculptra is the best dermal filler for you, based on your unique needs.
Which filler Is best for me?
Subtle results can typically be seen within a month of Sculptra injection. These results will continue to build as new collagen can take up to 6 months to form. Sculptra can last up to 2 years (but it depends on each patients’ metabolism and skin).
