Sculptra
Sculptra is a biostimulatory aesthetic injectable that helps stimulate your own natural collagen production to smooth facial wrinkles and improve skin tightness, revealing a refreshed-looking you. It’s designed to restore lost volume, improve skin glow and skin tightness and stimulate collagen and elastin production, delivering gradual, natural-looking results. Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra works within the body to promote collagen growth over time, creating a more youthful, firm, and vibrant appearance.
What is Sculptra Used For?
Sculptra is ideal for patients looking to add volume to hollow areas, smooth fine lines, and improve skin texture. It’s commonly used to treat:
• Facial wrinkles and folds
• Hollowed cheeks or temples
• Deep nasolabial folds
• Chin wrinkles
Duration and Efficacy
Sculptra’s effects are gradual but long-lasting. Patients typically see an improvement in volume and skin texture over a period of a few months as collagen rebuilds. Results can last up to two years or more as the collagen continues to support skin structure. Sculptra is an excellent choice for those seeking subtle, lasting enhancement.
Pre-Treatment Care
• Avoid Blood Thinners: Refrain from using aspirin, ibuprofen, or other blood-thinning medications at least one week before your treatment.
• Minimize Alcohol Consumption: Avoid alcohol 24 hours prior to your appointment to reduce the risk of bruising.
Post-Treatment Care
• Massage the Area: Gently massage the treated area 5 times a day for 5 minutes each time for the first 5 days.
• Avoid Heat and Sun: For a few days post-treatment, avoid excessive heat, sun exposure, and tanning beds to prevent irritation.
• Use Ice: Apply ice packs to reduce swelling, but avoid direct skin contact with the ice.
• Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to support collagen synthesis and optimal skin health.
Sculptra offers a gradual, natural rejuvenation, allowing you to enhance your appearance without dramatic, immediate changes. By stimulating your own collagen, Sculptra provides a lasting, youthful boost that grows with time, giving you the refreshed and confident look you desire.
