Sculptra
Sculptra® is an injectable treatment that gradually restores facial volume and improves skin structure by stimulating your body’s natural collagen production. Unlike fillers that provide immediate results, Sculptra works beneath the surface over time to create a refreshed and natural-looking appearance that lasts.
What makes Sculptra unique is its ability to target the root cause of volume loss: collagen depletion. Instead of masking the effects, Sculptra is a collagen stimulator that helps your skin rebuild from within. The result is a gradual, subtle transformation that looks authentic and balanced.
Sculptra is commonly chosen to:
Your consultation begins with a dermatology physician assistant who will review your goals, study your facial structure, and design a plan specific to your needs. You may be advised to pause certain medications or supplements that increase bruising risk.
Sculptra is carefully injected into the targeted areas. A topical numbing cream can be used to maximize comfort during injection. Most patients describe the sensation as a quick pinch with some mild pressure that fades quickly. A typical session takes about 30 to 45 minutes.
Temporary swelling or bruising may occur but usually resolves quickly. For best results, follow the “5-5-5” rule: gently massage treated areas for five minutes, five times per day, for five days. Your improvements appear gradually in the weeks and months that follow as your body creates new collagen.
