Sculptra Aesthetic®
Sculptra is an injectable cosmetic filler that’s used to restore facial volume and treat signs of aging such as wrinkles and folds. Unlike other fillers that use hyaluronic acid, Sculptra contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), which is a biocompatible, biodegradable substance that stimulates collagen production in the skin.
How it Works:
Sculptra works through a process called collagen stimulation. It contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible and biodegradable substance. When injected into the skin, Sculptra acts as a stimulant, prompting the body to produce more collagen.
What it Treats:
Sculptra Aesthetic is an injectable treatment designed to gradually rejuvenate and restore volume to the face by stimulating the body’s natural collagen production. Composed of poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible synthetic material, Sculptra is injected into targeted areas to address volume loss, wrinkles, and facial folds. Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, which provide immediate results, Sculptra works gradually over several months, producing subtle, natural-looking improvements that can last up to two years. As collagen production is stimulated, the skin becomes thicker and firmer, resulting in a more youthful appearance with increased facial volume and improved contouring.
Treatment Benefits:
- Long-lasting results: Unlike some other fillers that provide immediate results but may only last for several months, Sculptra results can last up to two years or more.
- Natural-looking results: Because Sculptra works gradually to stimulate collagen production, the results appear natural and subtle, without looking overdone or “plastic.”
- Versatility: Sculptra can be used to address a variety of facial aging concerns, from volume loss to deep wrinkles, making it a versatile option for facial rejuvenation.
- Non-invasive: Sculptra is administered through injections, making it a non-surgical and minimally invasive treatment option with little to no downtime.
