Everyone wants to preserve the smooth skin and soft contours of their youth without having to undergo surgery. Now, Sculptra injections provide an easy solution.

What Is Sculptra?

Sculptra is an injectable gel that allows the cells in your skin to fill out naturally, eliminating fine lines and deep wrinkles and softening contours to achieve a more youthful and healthy appearance.

Sculptra is a completely safe and approved dermal filler made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). PLLA acts as a collagen stimulator. It’s absorbed into your body and encourages your cells to create more collagen, a natural protein that exists in your skin, bones, cartilage and connective tissues. Collagen provides cellular support, strength and structure.

Sculptra and HA Fillers Compared

Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers achieve the same results, often in as little as one treatment. However, the effects of HA fillers typically only last between three months and one year, while an initial series of Sculptra injections can last up to two years. HA fillers also achieve results by hydrating target areas. However, they don’t provide the ongoing collagen stimulation and resulting structure, strength, and body that Sculptra injections do.

The Science Behind Sculptra

PLLA encourages collagen production by stimulating fibroblast cells to synthesize collagen naturally. It acts as a trigger to induce activation of fibroblasts that secrete transforming growth factor beta, referred to as (TGF-β). TGF-β plays an important role in cell cycle growth, development and regulation.

The benefit of taking a natural, ongoing approach to encouraging your skin cells to produce collagen is that it achieves more natural-looking and longer-lasting results.

Achieving Your Desired Look with Sculptra

Sculptra injections can target:

Smile Lines

These thin lines on your face become pronounced when you smile and can add years to your appearance. They are most apparent at the corners of your eyes and mouth.

Nasolabial Folds

These are diagonal lines that run from the sides of your nose down towards the corners of your mouth. They can deepen as we age and produce shadows that make us look older.

Sagging Cheeks

Sagging cheeks produce jowls, the flaps of skin that hang below and obscure your jawline. Sculptra can provide a lift to sagging cheeks, helping to redefine your jaw and make you look younger and healthier.

Forehead Lines

Lateral forehead lines can be caused by stress, sunlight, or natural facial movement and expressions. They can also become deeper as we age. Sculptra can effectively reduce and remove these lines, making you look instantly younger.

Sculptra injections can improve any area of the face by filling out the skin to remove hollows, folds, or lines. They can also be used on the neck, thighs, and buttocks to smooth the skin and make you look years younger.

Your specialist can suggest areas to treat during your initial consultation and show you before and after results photos of past treatments.

The Physical Process of Sculptra Injections

After a brief consultation to ensure you fully understand the process and intended results, your Sculptra treatment can take as little as 15 minutes. The consultation will include questions including:

• Overall health and whether you have any allergies
• Your goals for the injections
• Current medications, supplements or vitamins you take
• Explanation of the risks, potential side effects, and complications

Before beginning the treatment, the specialist may administer topical anesthesia to numb the area of the injections and ensure you feel no pain or discomfort during the session.

They’ll use a tiny needle to inject Sculptra under your skin in the target areas. After the session, there may be some slight bruising or swelling in the target areas that will subside after a couple of days. Within a month of treatment, you should start to notice that your skin is looking fuller and plumper and that the lines and folds have disappeared.
