What is Sculptra?
Sculptra is a unique, FDA-approved injectable treatment designed to stimulate collagen production and restore lost facial volume. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, Sculptra works gradually, improving skin quality and elasticity over time for natural-looking results.
How does a Sculptra Treatment Work?
Sculptra is made of polu-L-latic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible substance that encourages collagen production. As the body absorbs PLLA, new collagen forms, creating a firmer, more youthful appearance. Results develop gradually over a few months and can last up to two years or longer with maintenance treatments.
Benefits of a Sculptra Treatment
- Long-Lasting Results: Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, which break down over time, Sculptra stimulates natural collagen production for sustained improvement.
- Non-Surgical & Minimal Downtime: Enjoy rejuvenation without surgery or lengthy recovery periods.
- Smooths Wrinkles & Folds: Sculptra helps soften deep lines such as nasolabial folds and marionette lines.
- Restores Facial Volume: Ideal for those experiencing age-related volume loss in the cheeks, temples, and jawline.
- Improves Skin Texture & Firmness: Collagen stimulation enhances skin’s overall appearance.
Who is a Good Candidate for a Sculptra Treatment?
Sculptra is ideal for individuals looking to restore lost volume, improve skin firmness, and achieve a natural, youthful look. It is perfect for those who want long-term collagen stimulation without the maintenance of traditional fillers.
