Sculptra®

Overview

Sculptra® is an FDA-approved injectable that helps gradually replace lost collagen — an underlying cause of facial aging — for results that can last more than two years.

How does Sculptra® work?

It’s the synthetic form of lactic acid, which your body produces naturally following exercise. Sculptra® is best for adding volume to hollow cheeks, folds between the nose and mouth and mouth and chin, temples and defining the jawline.

What can Sculptra® treat?

  • Hollow cheeks
  • Folds between the nose and mouth and mouth and chin, temples and defining the jawline.

What results can be expected from Sculptra®?

Results from Sculptra® appear gradually over the treatment regime – typically three injections of the course of three to four months.
