Sculptra
Stimulates collagen production over time.
Overview
Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that gradually stimulates the skin’s natural collagen production.
Unlike traditional fillers that provide immediate volume, Sculptra works over time to restore facial structure and reduce wrinkles.
It is commonly used to treat areas like the cheeks, temples, and jawline, providing subtle, natural-looking results that can last up to two years. Multiple sessions are often recommended for optimal results, with minimal downtime after each treatment.
