Sculptra filler is an injectable cosmetic filler, a longer lasting alternative to traditional dermal fillers. During our youth, our bodies naturally produce high levels of collagen and hyaluronic acid resulting in smooth and supple skin. However, as time passes and natural aging processes occur, these components decrease, leading to aging skin and decreased definition. This can result in the loss of structure and volume, leading to unwelcome lines and deep wrinkles.

        What is ?

        Sculptra is used to smooth fine lines and deep wrinkles as well as add volume to the face, define natural features, and highlight targeted areas such as face, breast and buttocks. Sculptra is an injectable cosmetic filler that contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a synthetic and biocompatible material that stimulates collagen production in the skin. It can be used to treat facial volume loss, deep wrinkles, and folds caused by aging. It is a much longer-lasting filler than traditional hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers and provides a gradual and significant improvement in skin thickness.

        What can treat?

        Most commonly, dermal fillers are used to treat the following concerns:

        • Volume loss due to aging
        • Fine Lines

        In addition, specialized techniques can be done with fillers such as:

        • Contouring of the face (focusing on adding volume to the cheeks)
        • Soft Lift
        • Breast enhancement
        • Buttock enhancement

        Treatment Procedure

        After a consultation with the practitioner, an aesthetic cream or injectable freezing will be offered to ensure you are as comfortable as possible. The procedure requires about 60 minutes depending on the area and amount of filler being used. During the procedure, Sculptra filler is eased under the skin with a very fine needle. When the filler is injected, the gel mimics the naturally occurring substances that add volume to the skin and smooth out fine lines on the face. Results will appear immediately!

        Post-Treatment Care

        Following the treatment, patients can expect minor swelling or bruising around the treatment area. With that being said, most people are able to return to normal daily routines immediately afterwards.

        After treatments, we advise our patients to:

        • Keep the treatment area clean and avoid putting on makeup for at least 6 hours to guard against infection
        • Avoid alcohol, Advil, aspirin, & physical activity for 24 hours after injection
        • Avoid excessive rubbing or manipulation of the skin as the gel is quite moveable for the first few days after treatment
