Sculptra

For those who are looking for a more natural look without looking over done, or have hesitations about injecting fillers into the body, Sculptra is an exciting alternative or adjunct to dermal fillers. Sculptra, or poly-L Lactic acid, is a collagen stimulant, not a traditional dermal filler. Once injected, the product stimulates your own body to produce collagen over course of several months and effect lasts for at least 2 years.

Typically 2-3 sessions are required, spaced 1 month apart. After about 1 month you will likely notice improvements in the quality of your skin. After 3-4 months you will start to see the volume restoration from the initial injection.

What can I expect before and after Sculptra?

Before:

  • Sculptra can be placed at time of initial consult
  • Topical numbing medication is available

After:

  • For 5 days after the procedure, you will need to massage the area to prevent nodules
  • After a few days, the volume effect from the injection will dissipate and you will not see much change in your appearance for the first several months
  • Typically 1-2 vials are recommended per treatment session. 2-3 treatment sessions will be recommended, based on your individual anatomy and sessions will be spaced 1 month apart.
  • It is important to understand that this is a delayed gratification process, and you need to commit to at least 2 sessions, otherwise you will be dissatisfied with your result
