ABOUT Sculptura
wHAT IT IS
Sculptra is an injectable treatment designed to restore facial volume lost due to aging while stimulating collagen production. Unlike hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers, Sculptra gradually and subtly corrects facial wrinkles and folds. Made from poly-L-lactic acid, a synthetic material, Sculptra is naturally absorbed by the body as it works to replace lost collagen.
HOW IT WORKS
During your consultation, our experienced practitioners will assess your skin, facial structure, and aesthetic goals to help determine if Sculptra is the best option to best suite your needs. Sculptra is injected into the targeted areas, aiming to add volume and smooth lines and wrinkles. While individual results vary, many patients achieve a more refreshed appearance with minimal downtime.
PERSONALIZED
TREATMENT PLANS
During your consultation, our expert injector will address your skin concerns and discuss your aesthetic goals. They will recommend whether Sculptra is the best dermal filler for you based on your unique needs, ensuring a personalized treatment plan for optimal results.
LONG-LASTING RESULTS
Subtle results from Sculptra injections can typically be seen within a month. These results continue to build as new collagen takes up to 6 months to form. The effects of Sculptra can last up to 2 years, depending on individual metabolism and skin characteristics.

DISCLAIMER:
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments intended to enhance facial features, restore volume, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Results and the duration of effects can vary based on individual factors, including skin type, the area treated, and the specific filler used. Common side effects include redness, swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the injection sites, which are typically mild and resolve within a few days. In rare instances, more severe side effects such as infection, filler migration, or vascular complications may occur.
It is essential to have a detailed consultation with a qualified healthcare provider to determine if dermal fillers are appropriate for you and to discuss the potential risks and benefits.
