What is Sculptra?
Sculptra is an injectable used to restore volume and improve facial contours by stimulating natural collagen production in the skin. The active ingredient in Sculptra is polylactic acid (poly-L-lactic acid), a synthetic substance that has been used safely in the medical world for decades, for example in dissolvable sutures.
What is Sculptra used for?
Sculptra is mainly used for facial rejuvenation and restoring lost volume in the face. As we age, the natural production of collagen decreases, which can lead to wrinkles, sagging skin and loss of volume, especially in the cheeks, temples and jawline. Sculptra offers a solution by addressing this collagen loss and gradually making the skin look firmer and fuller.
The main applications of Sculptra are
- Restoring volume to the face: Sculptra is often used to restore volume to the face, especially in the cheeks, temples and jawline, where volume loss due to ageing is most noticeable. It does not fill up immediately like traditional fillers, but stimulates the body to gradually produce more collagen.
- Reduction of wrinkles and lines: By stimulating collagen, Sculptra can help soften and gradually improve deep lines and wrinkles, such as the nasolabial fold (wrinkles from the nose to the corners of the mouth) and marionette lines (around the mouth).
- Improve facial contours: Sculptra can also be used to subtly improve facial contours, such as tightening the jawline or filling the cheeks for a more youthful appearance.
- Treatment of body skin laxity: ○ for the face, Sculptra can also be used to address sagging skin on the body, such as on the upper arms, thighs or buttocks. For example, it is used for a Sculptra BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift) to give the buttocks a fuller, firmer appearance.
What is Sculptra used for?
The results of a Sculptra treatment are not immediately visible. Because the product works by stimulating collagen, the results become more evident gradually, usually within 4 to 6 months after treatment. This gradual process leads to a subtle and natural rejuvenation of the face.
Sculptra can have very long-lasting effects; results typically last for 2 to 3 years. To achieve optimal results, several sessions are often needed, usually 2-3 treatments with several weeks in between.
Who is Sculptra suitable for?
Sculptra is ideal for people who want subtle, natural rejuvenation of their skin and do not need immediate results. It is suitable for those who suffer from facial volume loss, deep wrinkles, or sagging skin, and are looking for a long-term solution.
In short, Sculptra is an excellent option for people who want to rejuvenate their face or body by stimulating the natural production of collagen, and are looking for a subtle, long-term improvement in their appearance.
