What is Sculptra?

Sculptra is a collagen-stimulating injectable treatment designed to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. Made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible substance, Sculptra works deep within the skin to stimulate your body’s natural collagen production, gradually improving the skin’s appearance over time. Unlike traditional fillers, which add immediate volume, Sculptra builds and supports your skin's structure for long-lasting, natural results.

Benefits of Sculptra

  • Smooths Wrinkles: Reduces the appearance of deep wrinkles, folds, and sagging skin.
  • Gradual, Natural Results: Noticeable improvements in skin tone, texture, and volume over several months.
