What is Sculptra?

Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable that helps gradually replace lost collagen to restore the volume and fullness that has been lost to aging. It is made of Poly-L-Lactic Acid, the synthetic form of lactic acid, which the body produces naturally. Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, which fill lines, wrinkles, and folds, Sculptra induces the natural creation of collagen to help restore your skin’s inner structure, resulting in tighter, smoother looking skin.

Collagen Loss: The Cause of Visible Aging

One of the primary reasons for visible facial aging is the loss of collagen, a fibrous protein in the deep dermis that gives structure to skin and supports the functions of elastin and hyaluronic acid (HA). Elastin is a protein that maintains skin shape, while HA cushions and lubricates to keep the skin hydrated. More collagen enables the presence of more elastin and HA.

What to expect

  • The Injection Process: The core of the treatment involves strategically administering injections into the targeted areas of your face. Sculptra contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible and biodegradable synthetic material, which is safely absorbed by the body and works to stimulate collagen production.
  • Post-Procedure: Immediately after the injections, the practitioner will gently massage the treated areas. This is done to evenly distribute the Sculptra and ensure a smooth, natural-looking result. You will also receive detailed aftercare instructions, which are vital for achieving the best possible outcome and maintaining the health of your skin post-treatment.
  • Recovery: One of the key benefits of Sculptra is the minimal downtime required. You can typically return to your daily activities shortly after the procedure. The results will gradually become apparent over the following weeks as the treatment encourages natural collagen production, leading to long-lasting results.
