An injected biostimulator that boosts your body’s collagen and elastin remodeling response, producing new volume, smoothing facial wrinkles and improving skin quality.
Sculptra contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), which is biocompatible and naturally biostimulating. When injected into the skin, it signals fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin. As new collagen and elastin form, they gradually restore facial volume and rejuvenate the skin for up to 2 years. This process takes a few months to visibly see results, and can be paired with HA filler for an instant lift that continues to improve over time.
Good candidates for Sculptra are individuals who are looking to restore facial volume loss and want a gradual, natural-looking improvement. It is important to have realistic expectations and to discuss your goals with one of our expert technicians to determine if Sculptra is right for you.
Before a Sculptra treatment, you may be advised to avoid blood-thinning medications, alcohol, and certain supplements to minimize the risk of bruising. Your healthcare provider will provide specific instructions tailored to your situation.
During the Sculptra procedure, one of our expert Nurse Injectors will use a fine needle to inject the Sculptra into the targeted areas of your face. The treatment is relatively quick, usually taking about 45-60 minutes. Some discomfort may be felt, but it is generally minimal.
You will start to see results within four to six weeks , which we call the "Sculptra glow". Over the next couple of months, as collagen and elastin production increases, you will experience smoother, more youthful skin and natural-looking results that will last two years or more. With such long-lasting results and little to no recovery time, Sculptra returns youthfulness to your skin without any signs of intervention, keeping them guessing!
The longevity of Sculptra varies depending on the specific product used and individual factors such as metabolism and lifestyle. Generally, results can last anywhere from 18 to 24 months..
