Sculptra is a cosmetic injectable that encourages your body to produce natural collagen fibers. When injected into targeted locations on the face, it can stimulate the production of collagen elastic fibers underneath the skin, making the desired region look more voluminous. It’s made of poly-l-lactic acid, a biocompatible product that’s been used in surgical sutures for decades, and now its amazing restorative capacity can be used in aesthetic medicine.
Sculptra: facilitate collagen production and enhance facial volume
Sculptra addresses the following concerns:
- Deep facial wrinkles and creases
- Nasolabial folds around the nose
- Marionette lines around the mouth
- Gaunt and hollow cheeks because of lost volume
- Deep tear troughs and under-eye hollows
- Deep acne scars and other facial scars
- Other facial wrinkles and scars
Collagen restores facial tissues and promotes a youthful appearance
Sculptra works by restoring collagen, the skin’s most important structural protein. Collagen is a fibrous protein that binds your skin tissues together and holds them upright against the force of gravity. However, after the age of 20, your skin loses approximately 1% of its collagen reserves every year, leading to fine lines, wrinkles, skin laxity, and the loss of midface volume. The poly-l-lactic acid molecules in Sculptra stimulate collagen production to reverse the signs of aging.

- No pain and discomfort
- Minimal post-treatment side effects

Initiate your Sculptra journey today
Your Sculptra journey starts with a thorough assessment. Our certified aestheticians examine your facial skin, discuss your goals, and determine if you’re a suitable candidate for Sculptra. They also curate the ideal treatment plan to ensure natural results.
After cleansing your facial skin, the injector may apply a numbing gel for comfort. The cosmetic injector delivers the appropriate units of Sculptra into the targeted regions in your facial tissues using ultrafine needles. The procedure concludes in 15 to 30 minutes.
Sculptra involves the same side effects as most other injectable treatments — mild post-treatment redness, swelling, discomfort, irritation, itching, and bruising for a few days.
Sculptra doesn’t involve any downtime. You can resume your daily activities and work immediately after the treatment, but you may have to follow simple aftercare guidelines, such as avoiding strenuous workouts for a day or two.
Sculptra: onset and longevity of the results
Sculptra produces cumulative results over several weeks and months because it relies on your body’s natural collagen production capabilities. The results will gradually appear over several weeks once your body produces new collagen fibers. Most patients need 2 to 6 Sculptra treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart for optimal results. The final results last for 2 years or more, following which you may need maintenance treatments.
