Sculptra
Sculptra (Filler) is an FDA-approved injectable that works with your body to gradually replace lost collagen, which is the most common protein in the body that is used to form a framework to support cells and tissue. Collagen creams do not fully penetrate to the dermis, whereas fillers work immediately upon injection to fill in lines, wrinkles and folds.

Sculptra FAQs
-
Your Sculptra treatment will start with a consult with one of our treatment providers to talk about your goals and desired results.
We offer numbing of the area with a local anesthetic. Once the area is numbed, the provider will begin injecting the tissue filler into the desired area. The provider will then massage the area to ensure that the tissue filler is evenly distributed.
After the procedure, you may experience some swelling and bruising at the injection site, but this should resolve within a few days.
