How is Sculptra different than fillers?
Sculptra is made of Poly(L-lactide) (PLLA), a biocompatible, biodegradable material. PLLA mimics human collagen. It is regenerative in that it also stimulates your body to create its own new collagen. As we age, we lose 10% of our collagen production with each decade. That means that at 40 years old, you have a 40% decrease in collagen production as compared to when you were born. At 50 years old, you’ll lose 50%, and so on. Sculptra is the only FDA-approved filler that produces results that last over 2 years; the longevity of results is in large part due to regenerative effects.

The most common areas of the face that are injected are the temples, cheek region, and the lower face. Sculptra can also be injected into the buttocks to replenish collagen and provide a sense of lift.
What can Sculptra treat?
It can be used to improve the appearance of wrinkles and sagging skin by stimulating the skin’s collagen production. It will help restore the plumpness and smoothness of younger, healthy skin by triggering your body’s natural collagen production.
How is Sculptra Used?
Sculptra is most commonly injected into the deep dermal layer of the skin, where it helps to replace lost collagen. It is used to correct facial wrinkles and nasolabial folds and enhance the fullness of the cheeks.
