All About SCULPTRA®
Smooth, firm, and tight skin are traits of vitality and health. With age, our skin’s natural supply of collagen—a protein in the body that supports cells and tissue—decreases, leading to wrinkles, skin laxity and crepiness. SCULPTRA® is an injectable treatment that works to activate the skin’s natural regenerative process and gradually replenish this lost collagen.
The treatment is composed of poly-L-lactic acid, which is injected within the deep dermis and gradually absorbed by the body. Over time, Sculptra helps the body naturally reproduce lost collagen. The treatment gently lifts and softens for subtle, natural-looking rejuvenation that can last up to two years. Results achieved with Sculptra are also cumulative, meaning that if you repeat the treatment, you’ll stimulate even more collagen, and see even greater outcomes.
As with every solution we offer, your personalized Sculptra treatment plan will begin with a careful understanding of your goals and anatomical needs to achieve beautiful outcomes and address these common areas of concern.
FACE
Signs of aging appear on the face in the form of lines and wrinkles and lost volume. Hollow temples and cheeks, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and even wrinkles on the chin and neck can keep you from feeling like the best, most confident version of yourself. Sculptra works to replace lost collagen with a gentle lifting effect that gradually softens wrinkles and folds.
NECK & DECOLLETÉ
Because the sensitive skin on the neck and chest is often exposed to excessive sunlight over the years, these areas often show signs of aging that include skin laxity and crepiness. Sculptra allows your body to regenerate the collagen which has been depleted in these areas over time to naturally and gradually lift and thicken the skin to bring back a more supple looking upper chest and neck.
BODY
Though Sculptra was initially intended for treatment of facial areas, it can also effectively replace lost collagen in other areas of the body including inner arms, abdomen (post-baby, for example), buttocks, hips, and thighs. There are so many areas that can benefit from this treatment.
