How Does Sculptra work?

Sculptra isn’t just another cosmetic treatment; it’s a transformational experience that revives your skin’s natural vitality. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, Sculptra stimulates your skin’s own collagen production, addressing the root cause of facial aging.

As we age, collagen – the scaffolding of youthful skin – diminishes, leading to sagging, fine lines, and wrinkles. Sculptra’s poly-L-lactic acid formula, which is made with biocompatible, biodegradable, synthetic material, which is gradually and naturally absorbed by the body and helps to rebuild lost collagen through a series of treatments, is designed to gradually restore and reinforce this essential protein, resulting in a remarkable rejuvenation.

The treatment involves a series of injections strategically placed to activate collagen synthesis over time. As the weeks unfold, you’ll notice your skin becoming smoother, firmer, and more radiant. Sculptra’s transformative process respects your body’s natural rhythm, delivering results that evolve over time.

What are the side effects of using Sculptra to smooth wrinkles?

Sculptra is an FDA-Approved injectable that has been used worldwide since 1999. Every medical procedure, no matter how non-invasive, does come with risks of side effects. Below are some common side effects for choosing Sculptra:

Common Side Effects:

Swelling and Redness: Mild swelling and redness at the injection sites are the most common side effects.
Bruising: Some patients might experience mild bruising around the injection sites.
Tenderness: It’s normal to experience slight tenderness or discomfort at the injection sites.

Less Common Side Effects:

Nodules or Lumps: In some cases, small, palpable nodules or lumps might develop beneath the skin.
Itching or Discoloration: Mild itching or skin discoloration could occur at the injection sites.
Uneven Results: As with any cosmetic treatment, there’s a possibility of uneven results.

Rare Side Effects:

Infection: While extremely rare, any injection carries a minimal risk of infection. It’s essential to follow aftercare instructions to minimize this risk.
Allergic Reactions: Allergic reactions to Sculptra are uncommon. However, if you experience hives, difficulty breathing, or other unusual symptoms, seek medical attention immediately.
Granulomas: Granulomas are small, firm bumps that can form beneath the skin. Your practitioner can discuss management options if this occurs.
