Understanding Sculptra
Made of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA,) Sculptra is a dermal filler that addresses volume loss. It’s known as a biostimulator because it stimulates collagen production, a protein that provides skin support.
Collagen is an essential protein providing skin firmness, but its production decreases with age. By your 20s, you’re already losing about 1% of your body’s collagen yearly.
That’s why many of us are struggling with age-related volume loss issues in our 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond. Sculptra is an effective solution.
How Sculptra Works
Traditional fillers add volume by placing a hyaluronic acid (HA) gel underneath the skin. Sculptra works differently: The injectable gel goes into the layer of skin where you make collagen, provoking a healing response from your skin. New collagen growth is a big part of this response.
Sculptra creates a foundation beneath your skin. Your fresh collagen attaches to this foundation. The Sculptra foundation dissolves over time, but your new collagen stays. This gives you natural-looking facial volume in areas such as:
- The Cheeks: Sculptra treats the mid and upper cheeks for youthful volume.
- The Nasolabial Folds: Sculptra can smooth and volumize smile lines on each side of the mouth.
- Marionette Lines: Sculptra can smooth and elevate drooping lines from the corners of the mouth to the chin.
Sculptra gradually increases volume, structure, and skin appearance. You may see results in as little as one month.
Sculptra Benefits
Most fillers provide immediate but temporary results that last 6-12 months. Sculptra can restore your skin’s foundation for up to two years and can have longer-lasting effects, too: 95% of patients had improved skin glow 2 years after treatment.
Sculptra’s gradual and natural approach ensures your enhancements look subtle and realistic. No worries about the “overdone” look with Sculptra!
