Unlike traditional dermal fillers, Sculptra is a biostimulatory aesthetic injectable made of poly-L-lactic acid, which works by stimulating the body’s natural collagen production, resulting in gradual and long-lasting results for up to 25 months.
Good candidates include individuals experiencing signs of facial aging, such as volume loss, wrinkles, and sagging skin. It’s ideal for those seeking a more youthful and refreshed appearance without surgery. Patients should be in good overall health and have realistic expectations about treatment outcomes.
Sculptra offers numerous benefits as the most powerful biostimulator injectable on the market, capable of stimulating Type 1 collagen production for a period of one year and maintaining results for up to 25 months. This treatment specifically addresses volume loss while also enhancing skin texture by reducing wrinkles. The gradual increase in collagen production results in a natural-looking improvement in skin quality over an extended period.
Sculptra may be utilized off-label for purposes beyond its approved use in facial treatments, such as addressing cellulite, skin laxity in the arms and knees, wrinkles on the chest, and non-surgical buttock enhancements using Sculptra injections.
During your Sculptra treatment, a trained healthcare professional will inject the solution into targeted areas of the face such as cheeks, nasolabial folds, smile lines, and chin. You may experience some mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites, but these side effects are temporary and typically resolve within a few days. The initial volume of the Sculptra injection will fade over the next 2-3 days as the body absorbs the water it was mixed with, leaving the PLLA particles in the tissue.
There is no required downtime following Sculptra injections, allowing patients to promptly resume work and normal activities on the same afternoon. It is advisable to postpone vigorous exercise for the initial 48 hours post-treatment. Commonly experienced side effects such as light bruising and mild swelling around the injection site typically diminish within the first week.

Following treatment, it’s crucial to follow the aftercare instructions provided by your healthcare provider. Results gradually appear as the treatment stimulates collagen production, with noticeable improvements in facial volume, skin texture, and overall rejuvenation. Individual results may vary.
After about two years, you can maintain results with periodic touch-up treatments. Consult a qualified healthcare professional to assess your needs and guide you through the Sculptra treatment process.
