Sculptra

Sculptra is an advanced injectable treatment that works by stimulating your skin’s natural collagen production to restore facial volume and improve skin elasticity. Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra delivers gradual and long-lasting results by addressing the root cause of aging—collagen loss. This minimally invasive treatment provides a natural and youthful appearance that continues to improve over time.

Benefits

• Gradually restores lost facial volume.

• Stimulates natural collagen production.

• Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

• Improves skin elasticity and firmness.

• Results last up to 2 years or more.

How It Works

Sculptra contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible and biodegradable substance that stimulates the production of collagen deep within the skin. As the PLLA particles dissolve, new collagen fibers form, creating natural and long-lasting volume and firmness.

Treatment Experience

Each session lasts approximately 30-45 minutes. Sculptra is injected into targeted areas of the face, such as the cheeks, temples, or jawline, using a fine needle or cannula. A topical numbing cream may be applied to ensure comfort during the procedure.

Results

Sculptra’s effects develop gradually over several weeks as collagen production increases. Full results are typically visible after 2-3 sessions, spaced 4-6 weeks apart, and can last up to 24 months or longer.

Who It’s Suitable For

Sculptra is ideal for individuals experiencing volume loss, sagging skin, or fine lines and wrinkles due to aging. It is suitable for most skin types but not recommended for those allergic to PLLA or with certain medical conditions.

Recovery & Aftercare

Mild swelling, redness, or bruising may occur at the injection sites but usually resolves within a few days. Patients are advised to gently massage the treated areas for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days to ensure even distribution of the product. Avoid sun exposure, alcohol, and strenuous activities for 24-48 hours post-treatment.

Frequency & Maintenance

A series of 2-3 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart is recommended for optimal results. Maintenance treatments can be performed every 12-24 months to sustain the rejuvenated appearance.
