Why Choose Sculptra for Natural Collagen Restoration

Sculptra helps restore the deep, underlying structure of the skin to diminish wrinkles. It also contours the body in areas like the chest, arms, knees, thighs, and buttocks. There, it improves texture, laxity, wrinkles, and aging skin. In the deep dermis, Sculptra works with your body to stimulate collagen and rebuild your skin’s inner structure and volume. Gradually, new collagen strands restore facial volume and add fullness to wrinkles and folds.

Over time, Sculptra helps your body reproduce lost collagen. The number of appointments varies from person to person, depending on how much collagen you have lost. On average, most patients need three appointments, and they space one session every 4-6 weeks in the same area.

Plumps Shallow Areas of the Face

Hollow areas of the face can create an older appearance. The temples are one often-overlooked area that ages the face. As you age, the temples lose fat and can become shallow and hollow. In addition, cheek filler can project the cheeks and make the temples look even more hollow. As a result, adding volume to these deficient areas often makes a natural, subtle, but impactful difference.

Helps Your Body Produce More Collagen

Sculptra works by placing a synthetic material, poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), into the deep dermis. Surgeons often use this same material in dissolvable sutures, because the body breaks it down easily and leaves no residue at the injection site. In turn, PLLA stimulates your body’s natural collagen process. Collagen, a fibrous protein, supports the structure of youthful skin.

With continued injections, your body replaces the lost collagen naturally. Collagen production begins to slow in your early twenties, so Sculptra restarts this process. By contrast, creams and supplements that contain collagen cannot restore your collagen production or noticeably change your skin.

Why Sculptra?

Sculptra is a smart choice if you want to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and hollow areas. It stimulates collagen, creates natural results, and lasts a long time. However, we do not recommend Sculptra in every area, such as the tear troughs and lips. Therefore, please consult your provider about the areas that interest you, and contact our office to schedule a consultation.
