The long lasting remedy for deep facial wrinkles and hollow areas.

Sculptra™ is a unique collagen volume stimulating treatment, ideal for sagging, wrinkled aging skin, and can produce a remarkable non surgical facial filling, providing sufficient Sculptra™ is used. Unlike temporary “fillers” such as collagen and hyanuronic acid, Sculptra™ stimulates your skins own cells (fibroblasts) that are responsible for manufacturing the supportive structural tissues we call collagen. As we age, our collagen quality and quantity diminishes. Folds, wrinkles and hollowness appear on our faces. The loss of our skins fullness and plumpness can now be reversed by this truly remarkable skin regeneration product.

The benefit of Sculptra™ is long lasting and achieved through a simple series of injections into the deeper layers of skin, with each treatment taking less than 30 minutes. Between 3 and 4 treatment sessions, about 4 to 6 weeks apart, are necessary to produce a very substantial collagen volume to plump up the skin. Contour and volume loss in the cheeks, temples, chin, glabella, and eye areas are restored gradually over a few weeks to months as the body forms new collagen. 

 

Possible side effects include short term bruising, redness, soreness, and slight swelling. Long term small deposits can be occasionally felt by touching, but are rarely visible. Unlike other absorbable “fillers” that last only a few months, the benefits of Sculptra™ volume enhancement are long lasting.
