Poly-L-lactic acid, an ingredient in the injectable Sculptra, gradually promotes the body’s natural production of collagen. In contrast to hyaluronic acid fillers, which give volume right away, Sculptra improves skin texture and restores facial structure over time.
The targeted areas receive a series of tiny injections during a Sculptra session. Although some mild swelling and redness are normal, the procedure usually takes 30 to 45 minutes, and there is very little recovery time.
For best results, most patients require two to three sessions separated by four to six weeks. Depending on each patient’s needs and treatment objectives, the precise number of sessions may change.
