Sculptra

Thanks to powerful volumizing dermal fillers like Sculptra, it’s easier than ever before to eliminate facial wrinkles and attain fuller, more youthful skin.

Long-lasting Facial Contouring

As we get older, one of the main causes of aging skin is decreased production of collagen, an essential protein for skin health and structure. With Sculptra, you can soften wrinkles, restore lost volume, and enhance your facial contours by addressing the underlying causes of skin imperfections.

What is Sculptra?

Sculptra is an injectable dermal filler and volumizing agent used primarily to restore lost volume in the facial skin. This filler creates firmer, fuller skin and smooths out facial wrinkles by boosting the body’s collagen production. Sculptra is made with poly-L-lactic acid, which naturally stimulates the increased production of collagen, leading to healthier, more youthful-looking skin and enhanced facial contours.

How it Works

Prior to your Sculptra treatment, a topical anesthetic will be applied to your facial skin to prevent discomfort. Next, one of our injector professionals will use a fine needle to inject Sculptra into your skin, targeting the areas where you’re seeking rejuvenation. As the poly-L-lactic acid is absorbed into your body, it will gradually stimulate increased collagen production, which will improve the skin’s health and complexion over time.

The Benefits of Sculptra

Sculptra is an advanced facial volumizer that can provide all of the following benefits:

Restoring lost facial volume: For patients who have lost facial volume with age, Sculptra can add natural-looking volume to the skin to enhance the contours of the face.
Minimal recovery time: Sculptra is a minimally invasive treatment that usually doesn’t require significant recovery time.
Long-lasting results: Because of its ability to boost collagen production, Sculptra offers longer-lasting results than most dermal fillers.
Reduced fine lines and wrinkles: When collagen production is increased, it causes the facial skin to become smoother and firmer, reducing fine lines and wrinkles in the process.
Improved facial definition: By restoring lost volume and giving the skin a fuller, plumper appearance, Sculptra treatment can enhance the definition of the cheeks, chin, jawline, and other areas of the face.

Your Recovery Process

After your Sculptra treatment, you can expect to experience mild swelling and bruising around the treatment area. However, these symptoms should subside within a few days, and you should be able to immediately resume your normal routine. That said, it’s important to avoid strenuous physical activity and alcohol for at least 24 hours after the treatment.

Contoured Results

It usually takes a few weeks for the results of Sculptra treatment to become visible. As your body increases its collagen production, you’ll notice your facial skin gradually becoming fuller and firmer while fine lines, wrinkles, and other signs of aging fade. Depending on how well you care for your skin, the effects of Sculptra can potentially last anywhere from two to five years.
