Sculptra is an injectable dermal facial filler that’s used to volumize areas of your face to create a softer, more natural, and youthful appearance. It also builds your collagen as it gradually dissipates.
Sculptra treatments diminish wrinkles, lines, and furrows that can form around the temples, cheeks, jawline, and smile lines. Using Sculptra can give you a more revitalized appearance with results lasting up to two years or longer.
Sculptra works best in the following areas:
- Hollow cheeks
- Hollow temples
- Redefining the jawline
- Melolabial and nasolabial folds (mouth to chin/nose to mouth)
- Some areas of the body
Benefits of Sculptra
Sculptra is considered a safe, biocompatible material often used to restore lost volume in certain areas of the face. Sculptra is the injectable variety of poly-L-lactic acid, a substance that’s been used for more than 30 years regarding absorbable sutures in addition to other medical applications. Since Sculptra is a biocompatible substance, pretesting for allergies isn’t necessary.
Once Sculptra gets injected into your skin, it boosts collagen production. In the end, more collagen is produced naturally and adds volume to correct indentations, folds, and wrinkles due to Sculptra building a structural foundation using PLLA and regenerating your natural collagen. Plumping effects can last as long as two years, which is considerably longer than most dermal facial fillers.

How Long Do the Effects of Sculptra Last?
