Sculptra is a biostimulator that is injected into the face with a needles or cannula to treat fine lines, wrinkles, and volume loss. Unlike a traditional filler made of hylauronic acid, Sculptra is made from small particles of Poly-L-Lactic-Acid (PLLA). PLLA stimulates collagen production in the face over time. The length of effect is variable per individual but most patients see results for 2+ years. Continued treatments are necessary in order to maintain the effects over time.
FAQs
Sculptra is ideal for individuals looking to address fine lines, wrinkles, and volume loss in the face. Suitable candidates are generally in good health and have realistic expectations for the procedure. If you desire natural-looking results and seek a long-term solution to rejuvenate your appearance, Sculptra may be a suitable option.
Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra works gradually to stimulate collagen production in the skin. While some initial improvement may be noticeable shortly after treatment, optimal results typically emerge over several weeks as collagen levels increase. Patients often observe a significant enhancement in facial contours and texture within a few months of their initial session.
The longevity of Sculptra results varies among individuals, but many patients enjoy the benefits for two years or more. Consistent follow-up treatments can help maintain and enhance the effects over time. By stimulating natural collagen production, Sculptra offers a lasting solution for restoring youthful volume and smoothness to the skin.
The treatment procedure is minimally invasive and will require little recovery time. Short-term side effects, such as swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites, may occur, but these typically subside within a few days. Our experienced practitioners take every precaution to ensure your safety and comfort throughout treatment.
Before your Sculptra session, it’s advisable to avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements to minimize the risk of bruising. After treatment, you may be instructed to gently massage the treated areas as directed to ensure even product distribution. It’s essential to follow any post-treatment guidelines provided by your provider to optimize your results and minimize potential side effects.
During your Sculptra treatment, a skilled practitioner will use a fine needle or cannula to inject the product into targeted areas of the face. The procedure takes about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the extent of treatment. While some mild discomfort may occur, most patients find the experience tolerable with topical numbing cream or local anesthesia. Following the session, you can continue your normal activities with minimal inconvenience to your daily routine.
