Sculptra is a type of injectable dermal filler used in cosmetic procedures to address volume loss and facial wrinkles. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, which primarily add volume by filling in wrinkles and hollow areas with hyaluronic acid or other substances, Sculptra works differently.

​

Sculptra contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible and biodegradable synthetic material. When injected into the skin, Sculptra stimulates the body's natural collagen production process. Collagen is a protein that provides structural support to the skin, helping it appear smooth, firm, and youthful.

​

Over time, as the body gradually absorbs the PLLA in Sculptra, the newly produced collagen helps restore volume to the treated areas, improve skin texture, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. The results of Sculptra treatments are subtle and gradual, becoming more apparent over several weeks to months.

​

Sculptra is commonly used to address volume loss in areas such as the cheeks, temples, and jawline, as well as to improve the overall texture and firmness of the skin. It is often recommended for individuals seeking natural-looking, long-lasting results.

​

Sculptra treatments are typically administered by trained healthcare professionals in a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart. The number of treatments needed depends on the individual's aesthetic goals and the severity of volume loss and wrinkles.

​

As with any cosmetic procedure, it's important to consult with a qualified healthcare professional who has experience in administering Sculptra treatments to ensure safe and effective results tailored to your specific needs and preferences.
