Sculptra is a type of cosmetic injectable used to improve the appearance of skin—especially for wrinkles, volume loss, and sagging.
What it is
* It’s a dermal filler, but a special kind called a biostimulatory filler.
* The main ingredient is poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biodegradable substance used in medicine.
How it works
Unlike traditional fillers that instantly “fill” lines, Sculptra works differently:
* It stimulates your body to produce collagen (the protein that keeps skin firm and youthful).
* Results develop gradually over weeks to months as collagen builds.
What it’s used for
People get Sculptra to:
* Smooth deep wrinkles and folds
* Restore lost facial volume (cheeks, temples, jawline)
* Improve skin texture and firmness
* Sometimes treat fat loss (lipoatrophy)
How long it lasts
* Results can last up to 2 years or more, which is longer than many fillers.
Key difference vs. regular fillers
* Traditional fillers (like hyaluronic acid): instant results, temporary volume
* Sculptra: slow, natural-looking improvement by rebuilding collagen over time

Simple way to think about it:
Sculptra doesn’t just “fill” wrinkles—it helps your skin rebuild itself from within. Call or text today to schedule your session 570-561-4271.
