Sculptra
Sculptra is an innovative injectable treatment that goes beyond simple filling, working as a collagen biostimulator. Its active ingredient, poly-L-lactic acid, subtly and gradually encourages your skin to rebuild its own natural collagen deep within, addressing a core cause of aging. This process leads to long-lasting, natural-looking improvements in firmness, smoothness, and overall skin quality, effectively revitalizing your appearance over time with a series of treatments.
Features & Benefits
Natural-looking Results
Unlike traditional fillers that can sometimes result in a “puffy” or artificial appearance, Sculptra works with your body’s natural processes to produce a subtle and gradual improvement in skin quality. As your body produces new collagen, your skin becomes smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking.
Versatile Treatment
Sculptra is a highly versatile filler that can be used to address a variety of age-related concerns. It can be used to restore volume to the cheeks, temples, and jawline, soften deep nasolabial folds, and improve the overall texture and quality of the skin.
Minimal Downtime
The procedure is quick and minimally invasive, with minimal discomfort and downtime. Most patients can return to their normal activities immediately after treatment, with no significant side effects.
Long-lasting Effects
The effects of Sculptra are not immediate but rather develop over time. As your body produces new collagen, the results become more noticeable. The longevity of the results can vary depending on individual factors, but many patients experience results that last up to two years or more.

What is the recovery process like?
After Sculptra injections, patients may experience mild swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the injection sites. These side effects are typically temporary and subside within a few days. To help minimize discomfort, it’s recommended to apply ice packs to the treated areas and follow the provider’s post-treatment care instructions. Most patients can return to their normal activities shortly after the procedure, but it’s important to avoid strenuous exercise and excessive sun exposure for a few days. As Sculptra gradually stimulates collagen production, the results may take several weeks to become fully visible.
Are there any risks associated with Sculptra?
Sculptra is considered safe, however like any injectable filler, it carries potential risks. These may include mild to moderate side effects such as swelling, bruising, redness, and tenderness at the injection sites. In rare cases, more serious side effects, such as allergic reactions or infection, can occur. To minimize risks, it’s crucial to choose a qualified and experienced healthcare provider and to discuss any medical conditions or allergies beforehand.
How is Sculptra performed?
Sculptra is administered via a series of injections by a qualified healthcare provider. A fine needle is used to inject the poly-L-lactic acid solution into specific areas of the deep dermis or subcutaneous tissue. Immediately after injection, the treated areas are typically massaged to help distribute the product evenly.
What are the different types of Sculptra?
There are various techniques for brachioplasty, including traditional brachioplasty, extended brachioplasty, and minimal incision brachioplasty. The choice of technique depends on the amount of excess skin and fat and the patient’s individual needs.
