Sculptra

Sculptra is not a filler — it’s a collagen bio-stimulator. Made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), Sculptra works with your body to rebuild the collagen you’ve lost over time, producing results that develop gradually and naturally over several months. If you want subtle, progressive improvement that doesn’t look “done” — Sculptra is often the answer.

How Sculptra Works

As we age, collagen production slows and facial volume decreases — creating hollows, sagging, and deeper folds. Sculptra is injected into areas of volume loss, where it stimulates your own fibroblast cells to produce new collagen. The result builds over 3–6 months and can last up to 2–3 years — far longer than traditional hyaluronic acid fillers.

  • Injected in a series of 2–3 sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart

  • Results develop gradually over 3–6 months

  • Natural-looking — no sudden volume changes

  • Lasts up to 2–3 years

Common Treatment Areas

  • Temples — restore lost volume and reduce a hollowed appearance

  • Cheeks and midface — rebuild youthful contour and lift

  • Jawline — improve definition and address jowling

  • Nasolabial folds — soften smile lines through collagen support

  • Lower face — address overall facial laxity
