Sculptra is a poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) facial injectable. It is injected into areas of volume loss and over time will induce collagen production in the treated areas. PLLA is a biodegradable material that has been used in medicine for many years including suture material.
Benefits of Sculptra Aesthetic:
Sculptra is used to treat and correct the shallow to deep wrinkles and hollowing of many areas:
Typically, 2 to 4 treatment sessions are required over a span of a few months. The amount injected will vary from person to person depending on how deep the wrinkles are, the amount of volume loss, and where they are located. The recommendations will be discussed at your free consultation.
Results from Sculptra will gradually appear. Do not be disappointed if you do not see immediate results. The PLLA is a collagen activator and will the collagen will gradually develop over a few weeks and can last more than two years. Remember, it will likely take more than one treatment with Sculptra.
You will have some extra fluid that is injected along with the Sculptra. The fluid will be reabsorbed within a few hours and you may have some slight swelling in the treated areas. This swelling generally resolves in 1 to 2 days. Bruising can sometimes occur with the treatment.
You can apply makeup several hours after treatment and many return to work the next day.
Sculptra is FDA approved and has been used throughout the world since 1999. Sculptra does not contain animal components so there is no allergy testing needed prior to injections. Side effects to Sculptra may include pain at the injection site, redness, bruising, tenderness, itching and lumps, bleeding or swelling. Smaller bumps may be present at the injection site.
Treatment will vary from person to person. The cost will depend on the number of vials used at each treatment session. Generally, it will take 1 to 3 vials at each session and 2 to 3 sessions for complete correction. The treatments are typically 6 to 8 weeks apart.
