Sculptra®

Unlock the potential for radiant, youthful skin with Sculptra, an innovative dermal filler that offers long-lasting, natural results by stimulating your body’s own collagen production.

Imagine turning back the clock on your skin, subtly enhancing your facial contours and smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles. Sculptra gradually restores volume and vitality to your face, delivering a rejuvenated appearance that looks entirely natural. Whether you’re looking to redefine your cheekbones, soften deep folds or improve overall skin texture, Sculptra’s unique approach offers gradual yet noticeable improvements.

What Is Sculptra®?

Sculptra is an FDA-approved dermal filler made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biodegradable substance that stimulates your body’s natural collagen production. Unlike traditional fillers that provide immediate volume, Sculptra works gradually, enhancing facial contours and smoothing wrinkles over time. The gradual nature of this process offers a naturally youthful appearance that improves with each session and provides long-lasting results.

How Does Sculptra® Work?

Sculptra works by injecting PLLA microspheres into the deeper layers of the skin. These microspheres stimulate fibroblasts, which are cells responsible for collagen production. Over time, your body absorbs the PLLA and new collagen strands form, restoring facial volume and improving skin texture.

Benefits of Sculptra®

Sculptra offers numerous benefits for those seeking subtle, long-term facial rejuvenation:

  • Versatility: Effective for treating various areas of the face, including the cheeks, temples, nasolabial folds and jawline
  • Collagen Stimulation: Promotes collagen growth, improving skin structure and elasticity
  • Gradual Improvement: Results develop over time, providing a subtle enhancement that avoids the “overdone” look
  • Long-Lasting Results: Effects can last two years or more, depending on individual factors
  • Natural Appearance: Enhances facial features without adding artificial volume, resulting in a refreshed, youthful look

What Can Sculptra® Treat?

Sculptra is versatile and can address multiple aesthetic concerns, including:

  • Nasolabial Folds: Smooths the deep lines from the nose to the corners of the mouth
  • Marionette Lines: Reduces lines from the corners of the mouth down to the chin
  • Cheek Augmentation: Enhances volume and contour in the cheeks
  • Temple Hollowing: Restores volume to sunken temples
  • Jawline Contouring: Sculpts the jawline for a more defined appearance
  • Chin Reshaping: Provides projection and balance to a recessed chin

Who Is a Good Candidate for Sculptra®?

You might be an ideal candidate for Sculptra if you:

  • Are in overall good health
  • Have realistic expectations for gradual, natural-looking results
  • Are looking to address signs of aging or enhance your facial contours
  • Are not pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Do not have a history of severe allergies or hypersensitivity to any Sculptra components

A consultation with our team will allow us to determine if Sculptra is the right treatment for your personal needs and aesthetic goals.

Your Sculptra® Consultation

During your consultation at our Denver area practice, Dr. Cohen or another of our experienced Board-Certified Dermatologists will take the time to understand your unique concerns and desired outcomes. This thorough assessment includes:

  • Discussing Your Aesthetic Goals: We prioritize gaining a thorough understanding of your expectations and desires regarding the treatment. This dialogue helps us align Sculptra with your vision of an enhanced appearance.
  • Personalized Analysis: Your Board-Certified Dermatologist will conduct a detailed evaluation of your targeted concerns, examining the specific lines, wrinkles and areas of volume loss.
  • Medical History: We’ll review your medical history and overall health, discussing any underlying conditions, allergies and previous aesthetic or medical procedures.
  • Patient Education: If Sculptra is determined to be the ideal treatment for you, we will explain the details of the treatment process, including what to expect during and after the procedure.

What to Expect During Your Sculptra® Treatment

The Sculptra treatment involves a series of injections with a fine needle or cannula, targeting the deeper layers of the skin. The procedure is relatively quick, typically taking less than an hour. A topical anesthetic may be applied before the injections to enhance your comfort.

Sculptra® Recovery and Downtime

After your treatment, you might notice some swelling, redness and bruising around the injection areas. These side effects are typically mild and fade within a few days. Most patients are able to return to their regular activities soon after the procedure, but we suggest refraining from strenuous activities for 24 to 48 hours to help reduce any swelling and bruising.

Expected Results From Sculptra®

When Will I See My Sculptra® Results?

Sculptra works gradually, so initial results may take time to become visible. Typically, you will begin to see improvements after a few weeks, with full results developing over several months for a natural, youthful appearance.

How Long Will My Sculptra® Results Last?

The collagen-stimulating properties of Sculptra lead to long-lasting results, typically lasting two years or more. Regular maintenance treatments can help sustain your refreshed look.
