What Is Sculptra?

Sculptra is an innovative dermal filler designed to address volume loss and restore the youthful contours of your face. Unlike traditional fillers that provide immediate volume, Sculptra gradually rejuvenates the skin by stimulating natural collagen production. Over time, this process helps to improve skin texture, elasticity, and volume, resulting in a more refreshed appearance.

What Is Sculptra Treatment Like?

The Sculptra treatment at St. Louis Skin Solutions™ is straightforward and minimally invasive. The procedure typically takes about 30 to 45 minutes. After discussing your aesthetic goals, our skilled injectors will administer Sculptra into the targeted areas using a fine needle. The treatment involves a series of small injections, and you may experience a brief, mild pinching sensation during the process. We use numbing techniques to ensure your comfort, and most patients are ready to return to their daily activities right after treatment.

What Areas Can Sculptra Treat?

It’s easy to say Sculptra can treat “the whole face,” but here is a more detailed list so you can determine more closely what areas you would like to target in your customized treatment: 

  • Loss of facial volume
  • Sunken cheeks
  • Hollow temples
  • Deep nasolabial folds (smile lines)
  • Marionette lines (lines from the corners of the mouth to the chin)
  • Overall facial rejuvenation

Is Recovery After Sculptra Treatment Quick? (Hint: Yes!)

Sculptra requires minimal downtime, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules. You may experience some redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites, which typically resolves within a few days. To enhance recovery, avoid vigorous exercise, direct sun exposure, and excessive heat for a few days following treatment. You can resume most of your normal activities immediately. Results from Sculptra develop gradually over several weeks as collagen production is stimulated, with optimal results usually visible within 3 to 6 months.
