Harnessing the Power of Collagen
Collagen is the body’s most abundant protein, responsible for providing structural support and elasticity to our skin. As we age, our collagen levels naturally decline, leading to visible signs of aging like wrinkles, sagging skin, and loss of volume. Sculptra is a game-changer in the world of aesthetic treatments, as it works by stimulating your body’s own collagen production, resulting in a more youthful, rejuvenated appearance. Visible improvements are seen several weeks after injection. You may initially see the “Sculptra Glow” improved skin firmness and radiance.
How Sculptra Works
Sculptra is a unique injectable treatment that contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible synthetic material that triggers the body’s natural collagen production process. When injected into the targeted areas, Sculptra’s microspheres are gradually absorbed by the body, stimulating fibroblast cells to produce fresh collagen over time.
This collagen-boosting process is what sets Sculptra apart from traditional dermal fillers. Instead of providing immediate volume, Sculptra works gradually, allowing for a more natural and long-lasting enhancement. Most patients require a series of 2-3 treatment sessions spaced a month apart to achieve optimal results.
