Sculptra®
Sculptra® is an injectable liquid filler used to add volume to areas of the face. Sculptra® is unique because it builds your own collagen, so the more you use the filler the better your results will be in the long term.

What is
Sculptra®?
A collagen stimulator made of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), Sculptra® is different from dermal fillers because of its ability to gradually diminish the facial wrinkles and restore the deep, underlying structures of the skin. As the microparticles of Sculptra® are absorbed into the tissue, they help stimulate collagen production for a long-lasting, youthful-looking appearance.
Because Sculptra® works incredibly well to thicken skin and stimulate collagen growth, it has started to be used successfully to treat other areas of the body beyond the face. One of the most popular, new uses for Sculptra® is for butt contouring, creating a non-surgical butt lift.
How is It Performed?
Sculptra® injection is a simple and safe procedure that doesn’t last more than 15 minutes. Prior to the procedure, the doctor applies a topical numbing cream and then injects a numbing agent to provide maximal comfort and minimize bruising. Using a fine needle, Sculptra® is injected into the desired areas of the face. The results are not immediate, and they appear gradually over the treatment regime. They can last up to two years.
A series of two or three treatment sessions over the course of a few months may be needed until the results are satisfying. The number of injections at each session will vary, depending on the desired effects and the degree of correction needed.
What are the Benefits of Sculptra®?
