Sculptra Treatment

Sculptra is not a filler. Sculptra is a simple biostimulator, poly-L-lactic acid. It’s a biodegradable liquid that is injected just deep to the skin. The presence of this molecule induces the skin’s natural repair system resulting in greater collagen density and dermal structure.  A thicker dermis improves the shape, moisture, elasticity, and texture.

Too much sun is called photoaging. This is the cause of most all facial wrinkles and rough-textured changes. UV radiation penetrates the skin and breaks down collagen. The presence of poly-L-lactic acid (Sculptra) stimulates fibroblast cells to create new collagen. This typically takes  about 8 weeks. Repeat injections can offer greater improvement.

The bellaboxx cost for Sculptra is $700 per vial. This cost covers our comprehensive medical services, including: review of your facial aesthetics; analysis of your skin health; education and discussion; Sculptra treatment; and, subsequent follow-up care.

No, your comfort is important. We know the face is very sensitive. That’s why we use the smallest injecting needles available. We also use anesthetics on the skin and below the surface. There is no lingering or residual pain, pressure, burning, or other sensations.

The skin’s reaction to Sculptra is to create more collagen. This typically takes full effect in about eight weeks. Your skin was much thicker when you were younger, and Sculptra stimulates the growth of thicker dermis. Thicker dermis has greater structural support and improvement in shape, thickness, moisture, elasticity, and texture.

If you do no other skin care, the noticeable improvement in shape, thickness, moisture, elasticity, and texture tend to last about two full years.

No. The improvement in shape, thickness, moisture, elasticity and texture happens gradually over two months. Your friends are most likely to think that you’re better rested, or maybe, simply in love.
