What Is Sculptra?
Sculptra is an advanced, injectable treatment that works differently from traditional dermal
fillers. Rather than providing instant volume, Sculptra stimulates your skin’s natural collagen
production using poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) a medical-grade biostimulator that has been
safely used for decades.
The result?
Gradual, natural-looking rejuvenation that strengthens the skin from within.
How Does Sculptra Work?
As we age, collagen production drops significantly. Sculptra helps to rebuild this structural
support, leading to:
Firmer, tighter skin
Smoother texture
Soft, natural volume restoration
Long-lasting improvement in the overall quality of the skin
Unlike traditional fillers that simply “fill” an area, Sculptra encourages your own collagen to
develop, giving exceptionally natural and long-lasting results.
What Areas Can Sculptra Treat?
Popular treatment areas include:
Cheeks
Jawline
Lower face
Temples
Marionette region
General skin laxity
It can also improve volume loss and skin thinning, common concerns for patients looking for
a subtle, refreshed appearance.
Who Is Sculptra Suitable For?
Sculptra is a wonderful option for patients seeking:
Gradual, natural rejuvenation
Longer-lasting results (typically 18–24 months)
Improvement in skin firmness and structure
A non-surgical approach to facial ageing
It is especially effective for those experiencing collagen loss, hollowing, or early signs of
skin laxity.
What Results Can You Expect?
Sculptra is not an instant treatment. Instead, results develop gently over several weeks as new collagen forms. Most patients require 2–3 sessions, spaced a few weeks apart, to achieve optimal improvement.
Once complete, results are beautifully natural, your face still looks like you, just refreshed,
lifted, and healthier.
