Sculptra is an FDA-approved biostimulatory injectable designed to smooth fine lines, reduce deep wrinkles and restore lost facial volume by stimulating natural collagen production. Unlike traditional hyaluronic acid fillers that temporarily plump the skin, Sculptra works beneath the surface to address the underlying causes of aging, offering more natural-looking results that can last up to two years or longer. It's particularly effective for adding fullness to thin faces, enhancing the jawline and revitalizing overall skin texture and tone, making it a versatile option for those seeking long-term facial rejuvenation without appearing overdone.
Sculptra vs. Radiesse®
Both Sculptra® and Radiesse® are biostimulatory injectables that work by stimulating your body's natural collagen production, but they achieve this in different ways and have different results.
Sculptra restores facial volume over a series of treatments, making it an excellent choice for addressing age-related volume loss and improving overall skin quality. Results develop progressively over several months and can last up to two years or longer in many patients.
Radiesse provides immediate volume while also stimulating new collagen production over time. Although it can be an effective treatment in certain situations, patients seeking subtle, progressive rejuvenation often appreciate Sculptra's ability to rebuild their own collagen and avoid an overfilled appearance.
Sculptra is injected into the deep layers of the skin where collagen
naturally exists and is made. It is injected with multiple small injections
using a fine needle in a grid patter to correct wrinkles.
When you are treated with Sculptra at Spa 43, our experienced provider will inject the product beneath your skin in targeted areas such as the cheeks, jawline or temples to create a fuller, smoother appearance. The treatment is quick, allowing you to return to your normal activities immediately. However, while initial results may be visible soon after the treatment, full effects typically develop gradually over four to six weeks as your body produces more collagen.
Depending on your desired results, multiple treatments spaced four weeks apart may be recommended. The effects of Sculptra are long-lasting, with many patients enjoying improvements for up to two years.
