Body filler Sculptra Treatment
Sculptra Composition
Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable product that contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). PLLA is a biocompatible and biodegradable substance that stimulates the production of collagen in the skin.
Collagen Stimulation
Sculptra is primarily used to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production. Collagen is a protein that helps maintain skin elasticity and volume. As we age, collagen production decreases, leading to the formation of wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin.
Treatment Areas
Sculptra is commonly used for facial rejuvenation to address issues such as sunken cheeks, deep facial wrinkles, and loss of facial volume. It is also sometimes used to improve the appearance of cellulite on the buttocks.
Procedure
During a Sculptra treatment session, a trained healthcare provider will inject the product into the target areas using fine needles. The injections are typically performed after the application of a topical anesthetic to minimize discomfort.

Results
Sculptra’s effects are not immediate, as it works by gradually stimulating collagen production over several weeks to months. Patients may require multiple treatment sessions to achieve their desired results, and these results can last up to two years or more.
Recovery
Sculptra treatments usually have minimal downtime, with most patients able to resume their normal activities immediately after the procedure. Some temporary side effects, such as swelling or bruising, may occur but tend to resolve quickly.

What is Sculptra?
Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable dermal filler that contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). It is used to stimulate collagen production in the skin to restore volume and improve the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
