Sculptra is an injectable treatment which works to gradually stimulate collagen production in the skin, resulting in improved facial volume and a more youthful appearance over time.
What is it?
Sculptra is a popular choice for individuals seeking long-lasting and natural-looking results for facial rejuvenation. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, Sculptra works gradually over time to stimulate collagen production, resulting in a subtle and gradual improvement in facial volume and contours. This makes it an excellent option for addressing deep wrinkles, folds and volume loss in areas such as the cheeks, temples and jawline. Additionally, Sculptra's effects can last up to two years or more, providing a more sustainable solution for achieving a refreshed and youthful appearance.
What to expect
On the day of the procedure, the treatment area will be cleaned, and a topical anesthetic may be applied to minimize discomfort. Sculptra is administered through a series of injections into the targeted areas, typically taking 30 to 60 minutes depending on the extent of the treatment. Post-treatment, you may experience some redness, swelling, tenderness or bruising at the injection sites; these effects are generally mild and resolve within a few days.
