Turn back time with the latest Collagen Biostimulator, Sculptra®.
Sculptra® is an injectable biostimulator, that gradually stimulates new collagen formation through a controlled inflammatory response for firmer, fuller skin.Smoothing out facial wrinkles and reducing the appearance of smile lines.
Naturally as we age, Collagen and Elastin in the skin breaks down, type 1 collagen production declines and the skin loses it's elasticity and structure.
The reality is that there are no effective facial creams that penetrate the skin deep enough to stimulate and let your body produce it's own collagen. These creams can become expensive and in the long run do not always promise and deliver results.
Sculptra® is made from Poly-L-Lactic-Acid (PLLA), a collagen bio-stimulator.
Sculptra’s effects develop gradually due to the time needed for the body to stimulate collagen production. Sculptra® renews the skin by improving the appearance of wrinkles up to 24 months after the last treatment without looking "over-done" or "filled".
Results obtained with Sculptra® treatment are gradual as collagen production is stimulated and skin appearance improves. Changes usually aren’t apparent immediately after the first treatment, 2 treatments recommended spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Improvements may last for up to 24 months after the initial treatment.
By stimulating the production of Type 1 Collagen, Sculptra® can restore skin volume, firmness and skin quality.
The product is mixed with local anaesthetic thus minimal pain is felt. Injections are placed beneath the skin with a safe blunt cannula tip (not a needle), thus reducing the risk of bruising and injuring blood vessels.
Treatment recommendations are based on age and degree of skin laxity (which will vary with each patient:
>30years of age: 1 vial/ 1 treatment session
>40 years of age: 2 sessions
>50 years of age: 3 sessions
