Sculptra

Restoring youthful volume naturally

Sculptra is a great option to improve an ageing, deflated and descending face by plumping up and restoring youthful volume in a natural way. Sculptra can also soften, reduce or even completely erase wrinkles on certain areas of the face.

The main ingredient in Sculptra is poly-L-lactic acid, a product of cane sugar. This is the same material that is used for making absorbable surgical suture which is completely dissolvable and absorbed naturally by the skin. This process was discovered to stimulate the growth of collagen and eventually led to the realization of Sculptra, an FDA approved dermal filler that acts as a collagen stimulator for those in need of facial volume restoration.

It was specially developed to repair contour defects in the face (notably for HIV patients with profound weight loss) and more than three million patients have been treated effectively since 1999. The collagenesis effect of Sculptra boost your skin’s own collagen to help restore its inner structure and increase facial volume that has been lost to aging or severe weight loss. Unlike the more popular HA facial fillers that most are familiar with, Sculptra doesn’t result in immediate volume replacement but instead work with your body to help revitalize the production of its innate collagen stores to give your skin improved elasticity, texture, tone and contour over time.
