Facial Sculpting

Most of us know at least a little about collagen, it's in the body and face, it helps with skin tone and texture, and the loss of it is somehow related to wrinkles. All totally correct, collagen is, as it turns out, a key structural component in skin. Unfortunately, as you age, your body’s collagen production decreases. In fact, you annually lose almost 1% of collagen once you pass 18 years old. It's why we start to notice the beginnings of wrinkles soon after.

Thankfully, though, we have Sculptra, the most dynamic collagen stimulator on the market. It's different from what you've seen before; it's not a dermal filler, and it doesn't use hyaluronic acid (HA). Instead of immediately adding volume while stimulating a small amount of collagen-like HA dermal fillers, Sculptra adds volume over time by stimulating large amounts of your body's own natural collagen, providing transformative, natural-looking results. The new collagen is entirely your own, and it doesn't just provide volume. Having more collagen improves the skin, tone, texture, and skin integrity while also making it appear fuller and more youthful. Sculptra minimizes volume loss and improves your skin from the inside out.

Great for moderate to severe volume loss in the temples, mid-face, marionette lines, and cheeks, Sculptra is similar to dermal fillers in that it does carry a risk of bruising and swelling, though it most often subsides within five days following your treatment. The effect of the Sculptra appears immediately after the appointment; however, that effect will fade over the five days following the appointment as your body absorbs the product. Within ten to twelve weeks of the treatment, the collagen stimulation from the Sculptra will begin showing.
