Sculptra
BOOST YOUR NATURAL COLLAGEN WITH SCULPTRA
Turn back the clock with Sculptra. FDA-approved Sculptra treatments are safe, simple cosmetic injections that minimize the signs of aging by smoothing wrinkles and fine lines, while also restoring volume and fullness to the skin.
Sculptra is most commonly used on the face to restore volume and fullness to nasolabial folds (smile lines), marionette lines, and wrinkles around the nose and mouth, as well as chin wrinkles. It is also used on other body areas for cellulite smoothing, wrinkles on the elbows and knees, and as a nonsurgical butt lift.
Unlike an HA filler, Sculptra utilizes PLLA to stimulate your body to produce new collagen over time. The result? Soft, natural-looking results that last up to two years.
95% of patients had improved skin glow 2 years after Sculptra treatment when injected into the cheek region
Frequently Asked Questions

Sculptra is made with a biocompatible, biodegradable, synthetic material called poly-L-lactic acid.

This is achieved through a series of treatments administered by a trained injector.
