Discover youthful radiance and a long-lasting glow with Sculptra.
Sculptra is a biostimulatory filler that leads to increased collagen within the skin. It is a versatile anti-aging treatment that uses a gradual approach to rejuvenating your appearance. This makes it well-suited for those seeking subtle, natural-looking results. Sculptra is particularly effective at addressing age-related skin concerns such as lines, wrinkles and skin dullness. It is used in many different areas of the body and is suitable for both young and older patients.
TREATMENT AREAS
- Cheeks
- Marionette lines, aka “frown lines”
- Nasolabial folds, aka “smile lines”
- Hollow temples
- Pre jowl sulcus
- Chin shadow
How Does Sculptra Work?
Sculptra is a type of filler that works by stimulating collagen production. We start to naturally lose collagen as we get older, which is a process that begins in our mid-20’s, when we lose about 1% per year. Collagen is an essential protein within the body responsible for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness. Decreased amounts can lead to visible signs of aging such as wrinkles, fine lines and skin laxity.
Sculptra is powered by poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), which addresses these signs of aging by triggering the body’s own collagen production. PLLA is a biocompatible substance that has been used for many years in the field of medicine, including dissolvable stitches. Once injected, Sculptra starts working within the skin’s deeper layers, and PLLA particles act as a scaffold that encourages collagen production.
Over time, the body responds to these new collagen fibers and is the time when you begin to notice improvements in the areas that were treated. This approach causes the skin to rebuild its foundation, resulting in a youthful, revitalized appearance.
One way that Sculptra differs from hyaluronic acid fillers is that it improves lost volume over time as collagen rebuilds, whereas HA fillers show results immediately. Sculptra also helps to improve skin quality by smoothing out the skin and boosting radiance. Results can last for up to two years or more, setting it apart from many other anti-aging treatments.

Sculptra pricing starts at $975 per vial.
Frequency
Sculptra is typically injected over several treatment sessions due to its gradual results. The number of sessions needed depends on a patient’s age and desired outcome. Younger patients that are having Sculptra done for preventative reasons may only require 1-2 treatments. Whereas those that are older and have more advanced signs of aging may need 3-4 sessions. Each treatment is spaced out 4-6 weeks apart.
