This blog will tell you everything you need to know about this treatment, how it works, and why YOU should consider a Sculptra Aesthetic treatment for your next visit.

What is Sculptra Aesthetic?

Sculptra Aesthetic is an incredible collagen-boosting treatment that will work subtly and gradually to give you younger-looking skin. It works by stimulating the skin’s natural collagen to produce more over time in the deepest layers of the skin. Using Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biodegradable substance used in medical products (such as dissolvable sutures), your skin will look fresh, youthful, and glowing in a beautiful, natural way!

What is Collagen?

Collagen is a type of protein that is found throughout our bodies. It’s like the skin’s support structure that helps maintain our shape. Sadly, once we begin to age, the collagen levels in our skin decrease because the cells that produce collagen are not as efficient. Age-related collagen loss weakens the skin’s structure over time, making it lose its elasticity and moisture, which  is mainly due to the production of hyaluronic acid that collagen is responsible for. This means that youthful glow disappears, potentially leaving behind sagging and wrinkles instead.

How Does Sculptra Aesthetic Help Me?

On average, people can lose up to 30% of their collagen levels by age 50. This, of course, can depend on other factors, like lifestyle, genetics, and aging. Sculptra Aesthetic works to combat this. These amazing natural-looking results appear gradually over a few months and are incredibly long-lasting. You can expect up to 25 months of younger, plumper-looking skin!

What Can I Expect From My Sculptra Aesthetic Treatment?

Sculptra Aesthetic will help correct both shallow and deep facial wrinkles and folds. You can expect to see improvements in your cheek volume, nasolabial folds (smile lines), marionette lines, pre-auricular wrinkles, radial laugh lines, and chin wrinkles! At your initial consultation you and your practitioner will discuss concerns and goals in order to formulate a regime specific to you. The number of injections used at each session will vary, depending on the degree of treatment needed for your skin, as well as the treatment plan determined by you and your specialist.
