What is Sculptra®?

Sculptra® is a new type of injectable gel made from Poly-L-Lactic Acid, which serves the purpose of replacing lost collagen. Poly-L-Lactic acid is safe and is naturally absorbed by the body. Sculptra is injected into the skin for restoration and/or correction of facial fat loss (lipoatrophy). It will correct shallow to deep facial wrinkles and folds by stimulating the reproduction of lost collagen. Results are not immediate. Sculptra® provides a gradual increase in skin thickness. In a clinical study, the effects lasted for up to 2 years after the first treatment session in most patients.

Advantages of Using Sculptra®

  • Stimulates the growth of the body’s own natural collagen.
  • Does not contain any animal or bacterial components which makes it very safe to use.
  • There is no need to take allergy testing prior to the treatment.
  • Results are gradual so it will look more natural and won’t seem like you’ve had work done.

Duration of Sculptra®

  • Sculptra® is long-lasting and can last up to 2 years or more.
