As we age, our skin loses collagen which can result in it becoming loose, saggy, and losing its structure. To maintain the composition of your skin, it is important to ensure consistent collagen production. Sculptra Aesthetic can help with this. Sculptra Aesthetic is an injectable treatment that has been approved by the FDA for gradually replacing lost collagen in the face. This gel formula is made of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), which is a collagen stimulator. By stimulating collagen, Sculptra can help restore the skin's inner structure and facial volume to combat signs of aging. Sculptra is a useful treatment option for smile lines, marionette lines, and chin wrinkles in both men and women.
Sculptra aesthetic is a collagen stimulator that works differently from hyaluronic acid. While hyaluronic acid treats wrinkles by filling them in, Sculptra works by targeting the deep underlying structures of the skin. As a result, the effects of Sculptra are not immediate and gradually appear over time. Sculptra's microparticles are absorbed into the tissues, which stimulates the production of collagen. Typically, the treatment involves three injection sessions spread over three to four months. The results of Sculptra treatment can last up to two years.
After your Sculptra treatment, you can resume your regular activities. You may experience some swelling at the injection sites, which should subside in a couple of days. Mild-to- moderate bruising and tenderness are also normal. The results of Sculptra typically last for about two years, and you can receive repeat treatments to maintain the results..
