About
The Sculptra procedure is a nonsurgical injectable treatment designed to stimulate collagen production in the skin. During the procedure, a qualified medical professional will inject Sculptra beneath the skin’s surface to address volume loss and wrinkles. Unlike dermal fillers, the results of Sculptra develop gradually over several weeks, and multiple sessions may be needed for optimal results. Sculptra treatment usually involves minimal discomfort and a short recovery period. Patients can typically return to their daily activities immediately after the procedure, making it a convenient choice for those with busy schedules. The gradual results and minimal downtime make Sculptra an excellent option for individuals seeking subtle yet long-lasting facial rejuvenation.
FAQS
Does Sculptra Hurt?
Each injection is administered through tiny needles. To reduce discomfort, we apply ice before treatment to help distract from the poke of the needle and reduce the risk of bruising. We mix Sculptra with lidocaine to ease the injections.
Is Sculptra Safe?
With the appropriate injection technique, Sculptra is safe and effective.
Are There Any Side Effects?
Sculptra can cause swelling, minor bruising, and some post-injection redness. In rare instances, Sculptra can cause a small, non-visible, and painless bump at the injection site.
When Will I See Results?
Results are not immediate; however, most patients experience swelling, making the injection area appear larger. Some patients see results as early as 4-6 weeks after the first treatment. Those with significant volume loss will see results after multiple treatments.
Who Should Not Use Sculptra?
Anyone with an auto-immune disorder is not eligible for Sculptra treatment.
Can I Have Sculptra Removed?
Sculptra cannot be dissolved but will naturally break down over time.
