Sculptra
Sculptra Aesthetic for a natural, long-lasting improvement
Discover the unique benefits of Sculptra—it's not just another filler. Sculptra is a bio-stimulatory aesthetic injectable that works with your body to stimulate natural collagen production, smooth wrinkles, and improve skin tightness, quality, and glow for a refreshed, natural look.
Sculptra is a unique injectable made from poly-L-lactic acid, which helps to replace lost collagen. It helps correct shallow to deep facial wrinkles and folds that appear with aging and restores volume, resulting in firming and lifting sagging skin and improving facial contour.
Sculptra is a long-term anti-aging strategy, not a quick fix for an upcoming social event. Treatments are given over a larger surface area than with other dermal fillers, with the goal of overall improvement rather than targeting a specific wrinkle. Results improve gradually over six months and last for at least two years or longer.
It is used on the face, neck, chest, decolletage, forearms, and around the lower thighs/knees. Results are complete six months after the last treatment and last several years.
By helping your skin make collagen, Sculptra restores the youthful oval shape of the face, lifting the eyebrows, cheeks, corners of the mouth, and jawline. That is why Sculptra injections are sometimes called "Liquid Lifts" or "Liquid Facelifts."
The "off-face" treatment tightens loose skin and helps reduce the crêpey, fine wrinkles caused by collagen and elastic fiber loss.
Results are a natural, healthy-looking improvement in appearance that is durable and gradually increases over time. Because your skin is actively making new collagen, results with other procedures, such as Thermage skin tightening, are also enhanced. The combination of volume replacement and Thermage skin tightening is sometimes called "Therma-Fill."
About Sculptra Anti-Aging Treatment
Number of Treatments—is usually three sessions, spread at least six weeks apart.
Discomfort—Sculptra is mixed with anesthetic. The combination of anesthetic in the filler itself and in a pre-treatment numbing cream makes the procedure very tolerable for almost all our patients.
Time to See Results—a gradual improvement over six months after each session, with final results six months after the last treatment.
Duration of Results—an average of 2-3 years; some results may be permanent.
Recovery Time/Side Effects—mild tenderness, redness, or swelling may generally resolve in a few days. Bruising may occur, resolving in several days to weeks. Occasionally, one or several small bumps occur underneath the skin. These bumps are usually only felt when pressing on the skin and are not visible. Rarely, infection or persistent redness occurs.
