Stimulate collagen for smoother skin

Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable that gradually restores facial volume and smooths wrinkles by stimulating your natural collagen production. Unlike fillers that provide immediate volume, Sculptra works over time to enhance skin structure from within. It is made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible substance that promotes collagen growth. Sculptra is commonly used to improve hollow cheeks, temples, and other areas affected by age-related volume loss, offering subtle and natural-looking rejuvenation over time.

  • Deep nasolabial folds (smile lines)
  • Marionette lines around the mouth
  • Chin wrinkles and skin laxity
  • General loss of facial definition
  • Skin thinning due to collagen loss

How does Sculptra work?

Sculptra works by using poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible substance that has been used in medical applications for decades. Once injected, PLLA microparticles boost a gradual increase in collagen, the protein responsible for skin firmness and elasticity. Over time, this helps to restore lost facial volume and improve skin texture. Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra doesn’t provide immediate volume; instead, it rebuilds the skin’s underlying framework for results that emerge progressively and can last up to two years or more.

What is the difference between Sculptra and fillers?

The key difference lies in how Sculptra and traditional dermal fillers work. Traditional fillers, like Juvéderm or Restylane, use hyaluronic acid to instantly add volume and smooth lines. Sculptra, on the other hand, stimulates your body’s natural collagen production over time using poly-L-lactic acid. While fillers offer immediate results by instantly adding volume, Sculptra provides subtle, more gradual results by encouraging your body to produce its own volume over time.

What happens during the Sculptra treatment?

During your Sculptra treatment, a trained provider will cleanse the area and may apply a numbing agent to ensure comfort. Using a fine needle, Sculptra is injected into targeted areas beneath the skin. You may feel mild pressure or a slight pinch. The session typically lasts 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the treatment area. Afterward, you’ll be advised to massage the area daily for a few days to help evenly distribute the product and support collagen stimulation.

How soon will I see results from Sculptra?

Sculptra works gradually, so you won’t see immediate results like with traditional dermal fillers. You may notice some initial fullness from the injection itself, but the real benefits develop over time as your body produces new collagen. Most people begin to see visible improvement within a few weeks, with continued enhancement over the course of several months.

How many treatments will I need?

Your treatment plan will be customized based on your individual goals and the degree of volume loss. On average, most clients benefit from a series of three sessions spaced about four to six weeks apart. Your provider will assess your facial structure and skin condition to determine the optimal number of sessions tailored to your needs.

How long do the results last?

Sculptra provides long-lasting results, with many individuals enjoying a more youthful, volumized appearance for up to two years or longer. Because it stimulates your body’s natural collagen production, the improvements develop gradually and fade naturally over time. Maintenance treatments can help you preserve your results.

Tips to optimize the results of Sculptra:

  • Follow the 5-5-5 rule: massage the treated area for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days
  • Stay well hydrated before and after treatment
  • Avoid strenuous exercise and excessive sun exposure for 24-48 hours
  • Use gentle skincare products to avoid irritation
  • Avoid blood-thinning medications or supplements (unless prescribed) to reduce bruising
  • Attend all recommended follow-up appointments
  • Maintain a healthy lifestyle to support natural collagen production
