What Is Sculptra?

Sculptra is an FDA-approved poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) dermal filler that cumulatively adds volume to eliminate depressions in the cheeks and temples. By triggering your body into producing more collagen, Sculptra gradually smooths away deep creases and wrinkles on your face to restore a youthful appearance. Like all our services, Sculptra treatments are tailored to meet each patient’s unique needs.

How Does Sculptra Counteract Collagen Loss?

Natural collagen loss begins as early as the twenties for some patients. Studies have demonstrated that by age 45, most patients have lost at least 45% of the collagen they had in their youth. Collagen loss is further accelerated by everyday exposure to the sun’s UV rays and other light sources. 

Sculptra is an ideal and long-lasting option when it comes to addressing collagen loss. Though classified as a filler, Sculptra is actually a biostimulator that focuses on collagen production. This injectable activates your skin to ramp up collagen production. This results in gradual, natural-looking restoration of youthful facial plumpness and volume. Sculptra’s benefits can be seen for two years or longer with an optimal treatment plan.

Should I Choose Sculptra Over Restylane Or Juvederm?

The truth is, you don’t have to choose one over the other. Though all three injectables differ greatly, Sculptra and a hyaluronic-acid filler like Juvederm or Restylane can work beautifully when used to achieve full facial balance. For best results, an experienced injector who is well-versed in facial anatomy and facial aging is key.

Am I An Ideal Candidate For Sculptra?

If you want to look naturally younger and refreshed, Sculptra treatments could be a great option for you. Sculptra injections are also recommended for those who wish to smooth away moderate and harsh facial wrinkles and regain fullness in their cheeks. Anyone who undergoes Sculptra injections should be 18 or older, in good overall health, and have a healthy immune system.

If you are allergic to any of the ingredients included in Sculptra or are prone to scarring, you will be advised to consider alternative procedures. To enjoy long-lasting results, Sculptra patients should commit to taking routine, good care of their skin after their sessions. If you are considering Sculptra treatments and have not yet incorporated a daily medical-grade SPF such as EltaMD into your regimen, now is the time to start.

What Is The Procedure Like?

Your Treatment Area

The first step of Sculptra injections is to map out the injection sites and thoroughly cleanse and prep the skin. A topical anesthetic may be applied upon request to eliminate discomfort. Then, a precise amount of Sculptra will be injected into the target area. Most patients require a series of sessions to achieve their desired results.

No Downtime

There is no downtime necessary after Sculptra treatments. Most patients are able to go back to their normal activities right after a session. Swelling, bruising, and tenderness in the injection sites may be experienced but should disappear after a few days. After your treatment, ice packs can be applied to soothe the treated areas.

What Results Can I Expect?

Sculptra is a fantastic facial volumizer because results are long-lasting, and a product of your own body’s regenerative powers. Your face will naturally look fuller and younger, and any facial depressions or hollows will gradually fill out. Nobody will be able to tell that you had work done. You will notice improved volume three months after a session, with the peak occurring around 5-6 months.
