Description

Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable biostimulator made of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). Instead of instantly filling wrinkles like traditional dermal fillers, it works deep within the skin to stimulate your body’s natural collagen production. It is designed to gradually restore facial volume and smooth deep lines.

How It Works

Collagen Production: PLLA microparticles act as a collagen stimulator. When injected into the deep dermis, they encourage your cells to rebuild lost structural collagen and elastin.

Gradual Results: Since collagen regeneration is a biological process, results appear gradually over several weeks. Full effects typically develop in about three to six months.

Longevity: Because Sculptra rebuilds your body’s own tissue rather than just adding bulk, the results are remarkably long-lasting, often remaining visible for up to two or three years.

Key Benefits

Volume Restoration: Replaces lost volume in areas like the temples, cheeks, and nasolabial folds to give a natural lift.

Skin Quality: Smooths out deep wrinkles, improves skin laxity, and refines overall skin texture and tone.

Natural Look: Since the volumizing effects happen slowly alongside your body’s natural processes, enhancements appear subtle and incredibly natural.

Ideal Treatment Areas

Cheeks and cheekbones
Temples (to lift the lateral brow and upper face)
Nasolabial folds (lines from the nose to the corners of the mouth)
Jawline and chin

What to Expect

Treatment Process: A series of injections is typically administered over a few months. Multiple vials may be required depending on the degree of volume loss.

Aftercare: To prevent the formation of small bumps under the skin, providers require patients to vigorously massage the treated areas five times a day for five days.

Side Effects: Common, minor side effects include temporary redness, tenderness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site.
