Sculptra
Stimulate collagen, restore facial volume, and improve skin quality over time.
Sculptra is a biostimulatory injectable that stimulates your body's natural collagen production. Rather than adding immediate volume, it gradually restores facial structure and improves skin quality for subtle, long-lasting results.
Sculptra is commonly used to restore volume in the cheeks, temples, jawline, and other areas affected by age-related collagen loss. Every treatment plan is personalized to create balanced, natural-looking results that continue to improve over time.
What Sculptra Can Treat
Cheeks
Restore age-related volume loss and improve midface support through gradual collagen stimulation.
Chin
Improve facial harmony and projection in appropriate candidates.
Temples
Improve hollow temples for a softer, more youthful facial contour.
Skin Quality
Stimulate collagen to improve skin firmness, thickness, and overall texture over time.
Jawline
Enhance lower-face definition and facial balance by rebuilding structural support.
Overall Facial Volume
Address generalized facial volume loss caused by aging for subtle, natural-looking rejuvenation.
What to Expect
Treatment Day
Treatment typically takes 30–60 minutes, depending on the areas being treated. A topical numbing agent may be used for comfort, and Sculptra is carefully injected into targeted areas.
Results
Temporary fullness may be visible immediately due to swelling and the fluid used during treatment.
That initial fullness typically settles as swelling decreases.
Gradual improvement may begin becoming visible over the following weeks.
Results continue developing as your body produces new collagen.
Results may last up to two years, although individual outcomes vary.
Recovery
Most patients return to normal activities the same day. Mild swelling, redness, tenderness, or bruising may occur and generally improves over the next several days.
Follow-Up
Sculptra is typically performed as a series of treatments rather than a single appointment. Alicia will personalize the number of sessions and timing based on your goals, anatomy, and response to treatment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about Sculptra, recovery, and how gradual collagen stimulation works.
How does Sculptra work?
Sculptra is a biostimulatory injectable made with poly-L-lactic acid. It works gradually by stimulating your body’s natural collagen production, helping restore facial structure, firmness, and volume over time.
How long do Sculptra results last?
Results may last up to two years, although longevity varies depending on the individual, treatment plan, and number of sessions completed.
Will my results look natural?
Yes. Sculptra works gradually by stimulating collagen rather than adding immediate gel-like volume. Alicia will create a conservative treatment plan designed to restore support and balance while maintaining a natural appearance.
Is there any downtime?
Most patients can return to their usual activities the same day. Temporary swelling, redness, tenderness, bruising, itching, or injection-site lumps may occur after treatment.
What should I do after treatment?
Alicia will provide personalized aftercare instructions. Patients are commonly advised to massage the treated areas for five minutes, five times per day, for five days, unless instructed otherwise.
