What is Sculptra?

Sculptra is an injectable treatment made of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) that works beneath the skin to stimulate collagen production. Unlike traditional fillers that provide immediate volume, Sculptra gradually rebuilds the skin’s structure over time, improving thickness, firmness, and overall appearance.

This treatment provides progressive, long-lasting facial rejuvenation with natural-looking results.

What are the indications for Sculptra?

Sculptra is commonly used to treat:

Cheek volume loss
Temples
Jawline contouring
Smile lines (nasolabial folds)
Marionette lines
General facial skin laxity and thinning

It is suitable for individuals seeking gradual, long-term improvement in volume and skin quality.

What should I know before I go?

Sculptra results develop gradually over several weeks to months as collagen production increases.

A series of treatments is typically recommended (usually 2–3 sessions spaced several weeks apart).

Mild swelling, redness, bruising, or tenderness may occur after treatment.

Massage of the treated areas is required after treatment (commonly the “5-5-5 rule”: 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days).

Results can last up to 2 years or longer, depending on the individual and treatment plan.
