Sculptra Injections

Sculptra is a biostimulatory injectable made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) that helps restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and improve skin texture. Unlike traditional fillers that provide immediate plumping, Sculptra works gradually by stimulating your body’s own collagen production, resulting in natural-looking, long-lasting results. It’s FDA-approved for facial use and commonly used off-label to enhance areas of the body such as the buttocks, thighs, arms, and abdomen.

Sculptra is injected into areas with volume loss or skin laxity. Once injected, the PLLA particles trigger a controlled collagen response.

Over several weeks, your body produces new collagen in the treated area, gradually lifting, firming, and smoothing your skin. Multiple sessions are usually required to achieve optimal results, but the effect is subtle and natural.

Sculptra can be used to enhance and rejuvenate various body areas, including:

• Buttocks: Adds lift and fullness without surgery
• Thighs: Improves skin texture and smooths dimpling
• Arms: Firms loose or sagging skin
• Abdomen: Restores volume and tightens skin
• Hands and décolletage: Targeted skin rejuvenation

Your provider will evaluate your body and discuss the most effective areas for treatment.

Sculptra stimulates your body’s collagen production over time, so results appear gradually over 2 to 4 months. Most patients notice improvement after 2 to 3 sessions, with full results visible at about 6 months.

Effects can last up to 2 to 3 years, depending on your body’s collagen response, lifestyle, and aging process. Maintenance treatments can help extend results even further.

The number of sessions varies based on the treatment area, your goals, and how your body responds to the collagen stimulation. Typically, we recommend 2 to 4 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart for optimal results. Your provider will create a customized treatment plan to help you achieve your desired outcome.

• Avoid blood-thinning medications or supplements (like aspirin or fish oil), if approved by your provider, to reduce bruising.
• Stay hydrated and maintain a healthy lifestyle to support collagen production.
• Wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the treatment area.
• Avoid tanning or intense sun exposure on the area for at least one week.

• Gently massage the treated area as instructed to help distribute the product evenly.
• Avoid strenuous exercise, heat exposure, or saunas for 24 to 48 hours.
• Keep the area clean and avoid harsh skincare products.
• Follow your provider’s instructions for follow-up sessions.
