Sculptra

Collagen is an incredible protein that plays a vital role in various functions of our body, particularly as a key building block of our skin. However, as we age, collagen production naturally declines, leading to a loss of elasticity and volume. This can result in sagging skin and the formation of facial lines and wrinkles.



But don’t worry—Sculptra® Aesthetic is here to help restore your youthful appearance! This FDA-approved injectable is designed to stimulate your body’s natural collagen production, helping you achieve firmer, more youthful-looking skin.

How Does Sculptra Work?


Sculptra contains poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible and biodegradable synthetic material. When injected into targeted areas, it is gradually absorbed by your body, promoting the replenishment of lost collagen. This is accomplished through a series of treatments administered by a qualified injector.


Who Should Consider Sculptra?


Sculptra is suitable for individuals aged 20 and older who are in good health. If you’re struggling with facial lines and sagging skin and are seeking a long-lasting solution, Sculptra may be the right choice for you. During your consultation, our team will explain the treatment process in detail and answer any questions you might have.


What to Expect During Your Treatment with Sculptra?


The treatment consists of a series of injections typically spaced over three months. Each session takes only a few minutes, followed by a short waiting period to monitor for any adverse reactions. Once cleared, you can resume your daily activities.

Are There Any Side Effects with Sculptra Treatment?


In clinical trials, the most commonly reported side effects include:


  • Redness
  • Swelling
  • Tenderness
  • Pain at the injection site
  • Bleeding
  • Bruising
  • Itching
  • Lumps


These side effects are generally mild and resolve on their own within a few days. We will go over all potential side effects during your consultation to ensure you’re fully informed.

What Results Can I Expect from My Sculptra Treatment?


As collagen is gradually replenished, you’ll start to notice improvements in lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin over time. These effects will continue to develop throughout your treatments. Optimal results are typically seen within a few months and can last up to two years!
