Sculptra

Sculptra is a type of injectable treatment used in cosmetic procedures, primarily aimed at reducing wrinkles and adding volume to certain areas of the face. Unlike some other fillers that give immediate results, Sculptra works gradually.

Results from 2 sessions of Sculptra.

Unlike fillers like Juvederm and Restalyne, it stimulates your body to produce more collagen, a natural protein that helps keep skin firm and youthful. As your body produces more collagen, the skin in the treated areas becomes smoother and fuller over time, with results that can last for a couple of years.

It's a slow and steady approach to achieving a more youthful appearance. It’s extremely popular amongst our client’s who want something gradual and natural-looking to improve their skin!

Here are some of the benefits of Sculptra:

1. Facial rejuvenation: Sculptra stimulates collagen production, which can help improve the appearance of facial wrinkles, folds, and hollow areas. We use it in the cheeks, temples, and jawline. It restores volume and creates a more youthful and natural-looking appearance.


2. Long-lasting results: Unlike some other fillers, Sculptra’s effects can last up to two years. Over time, the injected particles gradually stimulate collagen production, leading to a gradual and natural-looking improvement. We refer to it as a “fertilizer” for skin health. 


3. Non-surgical and minimally invasive: Sculptra is a non-surgical treatment option that involves injections. It doesn’t require incisions or general anesthesia, making it a convenient choice for those seeking facial rejuvenation without significant downtime. We use numbing medicine in the injection to increase comfort.


4. Versatility: Sculptra can address various concerns, such as deep facial folds, wrinkles, and volume loss in areas like the cheeks, temples, and chin. It provides a subtle and gradual enhancement, allowing for customized treatment according to individual needs.


5. Natural-looking results: Sculptra works by stimulating the body’s own collagen production, leading to gradual and natural-looking improvements. The results are typically subtle, avoiding an overly “done” or unnatural appearance.

FAQs

What is Sculptra?
Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable biostimulator that provokes your body to stimulate collagen growth. It improves the quality of skin by thickening the dermis, revolumizing areas with depletion.

How does Sculptra work?
Sculptra contains poly-L-lactic acid, which stimulates the production of collagen. It gradually improves skin thickness and reduces the appearance of wrinkles.

How does Sculptra differ from other dermal fillers?
Sculptra is unique as it stimulates collagen over time, providing gradual and long-lasting results, whereas hyaluronic acid fillers provide immediate volume and degrade over time.

What areas can be treated with Sculptra?
Sculptra is commonly used throughout the face to treat smile lines (nasolabial folds), marionette lines, chin wrinkles to restore volume in areas that have lost collagen. It can also be used in the neck and décolletage.

How long does it take to see results with Sculptra?
While results are not immediate, you may start noticing improvements gradually over a few weeks to months as collagen production increases. Most commonly, improvement to the skin is seen around three months after your last treatment.

How long does Sculptra last?
Results from Sculptra are not immediate, as it works gradually. However, the effects can last up to two years or more. The collagen that is produced within the tissue may last up to five years.

Is Sculptra safe?
Sculptra is very safe with decades of research and proven efficacy. It is critical that it is administered by a trained and qualified healthcare professional to mitigate risks and adverse reactions. It's important to follow post-treatment care instructions.

Are there any side effects of Sculptra?
Common side effects may include swelling, redness, bruising, or tenderness at the injection site. These effects are usually temporary.

How many sessions are required for optimal results?
In general, the rule of thumb is one vial per decade of life. The number of sessions varies based on individual needs. Typically, a series of treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart is recommended.

Is there downtime after Sculptra injections?
There may be some swelling, bruising and redness after the treatment, but most people can resume normal activities immediately. However, strenuous exercise should be avoided for a day or two.

Who is a good candidate for Sculptra?
Ideal candidates are generally healthy individuals looking to address facial volume loss and wrinkles without surgery. Sculptra is wonderful to begin in your late twenties and thirties for preservation and preventive aging.

Can Sculptra be combined with other treatments?
Sculptra is often used in combination with other dermal fillers or cosmetic procedures for a comprehensive facial rejuvenation approach. When it comes to your Sculptra appointment, ask our staff if you’d like to add other treatments to your visit! Beauty services such as brow lamination or a lash lift can be added, as well as Forma facials.
