Why would I have a Sculptra treatment?

An excellent collagen stimulator, Sculptra works by stimulating your body’s collagen production, effectively enhancing skin structure and elasticity. It’s quite unlike traditional fillers as Sculptra’s effects develop gradually. It aims to create a natural, lifted look over a period of time. This makes it a preferred option for patients looking for subtle, long-lasting results that feel and look like their own skin.

Skin rejuvenation

Sculptra promotes collagen production deep within your skin, helping to rebuild volume and smooth out fine lines and wrinkles. This dermal filler supports facial structure, restoring fullness in areas like the cheeks and temples that may lose volume over time. As a non-surgical treatment, Sculptra provides a subtle yet effective way to restore a more youthful look.

Natural-looking results

Sculptra treatments are typically scheduled over several weeks to allow for a gradual increase in collagen. This staged approach creates a natural-looking effect, reducing the appearance of an “overfilled” look. Many patients find that this subtle improvement matches their aesthetic goals, achieving a refreshed look without an obvious change.

Longer-lasting effects

Sculptra provides benefits that last up to two years by encouraging collagen production that fortifies skin structure. After completing the initial series of treatments, you may enjoy the results without needing frequent touch-ups. Many patients find this low-maintenance option convenient and effective for long-term skin improvement. Patient s may require 2 sessions of Sculptra to get the best results, some weeks apart.

The Collagen Production Process

Sculptra is made from poly-l-lactic acid (PLLA). When injected beneath the skin, PLLA microparticles create a controlled inflammatory response to start to help to replace collagen. This process:

  1. Initiates your body’s natural healing response
  2. Triggers fibroblast cells to produce new collagen
  3. Gradually builds a supporting structure, replacing lost collagen beneath the skin
  4. Creates natural-looking volume over time

Initial Consultation

Scientific Evidence

Clinical studies have shown that Sculptra can significantly increase dermal thickness following treatment.
This improvement comes from:
  • Type I collagen production (providing strength and structure)
  • Type III collagen synthesis (supporting skin elasticity)
  • Enhanced skin quality and texture
