Sculptra

Not interested in dermal fillers, but want to preserve facial volume?

Not interested in dermal fillers, but want to preserve facial volume? Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable cosmetic treatment that is used for facial rejuvenation and addressing the signs of aging. Unlike traditional dermal fillers that add volume by using hyaluronic acid, Sculptra works differently by stimulating the body's natural collagen production. After undergoing Sculptra, you will notice improvement in skin integrity and an overall softer appearance

Why Sculptra?

• Sculptra provides natural-looking results by gradually stimulating the body's own collagen production. 
• Sculptra's effects are long-lasting compared to traditional dermal fillers. 
• Sculptra can address multiple aesthetic concerns in one treatment session. The answer is "Yes!" with Sculptra.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Sculptra operates by stimulating the body's inherent collagen production to restore facial volume and enhance one's appearance. Comprising poly-L-lactic acid, also recognized as a bio-stimulator, it is noteworthy for its role in this process.

Upon injection into specific facial areas, Sculptra serves as an activator, prompting the body's natural response to produce collagen. Collagen, a pivotal protein providing structural support to the skin, contributes to its firmness, elasticity, and youthful aspect. However, the aging process entails a slowdown in collagen production, resulting in facial volume loss and the development of wrinkles and folds.

Interestingly, Sculptra's initial application was in preserving facial volume for individuals affected by HIV and AIDS.

Sculptra proves to be a highly effective treatment, often deemed a miraculous solution. Feel free to contact us with any inquiries or concerns.

WHAT TO EXPECT AT YOUR APPOINTMENT:

At a Sculptra treatment session, you can expect a comprehensive experience tailored to your unique facial rejuvenation goals. Using a fine needle, Sculptra will be strategically injected into areas of the face to address volume loss and wrinkles. The injections are relatively quick, taking about 30 minutes to one hour to complete. Following the treatment, you may experience temporary swelling and redness, but these typically subside before the day is over. Multiple sessions are often recommended for optimal outcomes. You'll receive post-treatment care instructions from your provider to ensure a smooth recovery and maximize the benefits of the treatment. Sculptra's gradual and natural-looking effects can last up to two years or more, making it an excellent choice for those seeking lasting facial rejuvenation without surgery or downtime.

HOW MUCH DOWNTIME SHOULD YOU PLAN FOR?

One of the advantages of Sculptra is that it typically involves minimal downtime compared to more invasive cosmetic procedures. However, some temporary side effects may occur after the treatment, like bruising or swelling. They will resolve quickly if you happen to experience them. 

HOW TO PREPARE FOR YOUR TREATMENT:

Preparing for a Sculptra treatment involves taking a few steps to ensure a smooth and successful procedure. First, schedule a consultation with on our well-qualified healthcare providers who specialize in cosmetic treatments. During the consultation, discuss your cosmetic goals, medical history, and any medications or supplements you are taking. Follow any pre-treatment instructions provided by the healthcare provider, which may include avoiding blood-thinning medications and supplements for a few days before the treatment to reduce the risk of bruising. On the day of the procedure, arrive with a clean face, free from makeup and skincare products. Dress in comfortable clothing and plan for a relatively relaxed day afterward, as there may be mild swelling or redness at the injection sites.

WHEN WILL YOU SEE RESULTS?

Typically, you can start to see noticeable improvements in facial volume and contour within a few weeks to a few months after each treatment session. The gradual collagen-building process means that the results will continue to improve over time, with optimal outcomes becoming visible after a series of treatment sessions.
