Sculptra Dermal Fillers in Coral Gables

Sculptra® in Coral Gables

Sculptra® is a biostimulatory aesthetic injectable that helps stimulate your own natural collagen production to smooth facial wrinkles and improve skin tightness, revealing a refreshed-looking you. Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, which fill lines, wrinkles, and folds, Sculptra is the original FDA-approved poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA-SCA) collagen stimulator that can improve skin glow, tightness, and jawline contour for up to 2 years.

Sculptra is a unique type of dermal filler known as a collagen stimulator. It's not like traditional hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers that add immediate volume. Instead, Sculptra works by gradually stimulating your body's own collagen production to restore facial volume and improve skin quality.

Active Ingredient: Sculptra is made of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible and biodegradable synthetic material that is safely absorbed by the body over time.
Primary Uses:
Volume Restoration: Sculptra is primarily used to address age-related facial volume loss in areas like the cheeks, temples, and jawline.
Wrinkle Reduction: As it stimulates collagen, Sculptra can gradually smooth out wrinkles and fine lines.
Facial Rejuvenation: It provides an overall rejuvenation effect, improving skin texture, elasticity, and firmness.
Subtle Enhancement: Sculptra is known for its ability to provide subtle, natural-looking improvements over time.
How it Works: When injected, Sculptra triggers a mild inflammatory response that encourages your body to produce new collagen. This process takes time, which is why Sculptra results are gradual and long-lasting.

Natural-Looking Results: Sculptra restores volume and improves skin quality naturally, as it relies on your body's own collagen production.
Gradual Enhancement: Because Sculptra works by stimulating collagen over time, results appear gradually and subtly, avoiding the appearance of being "overfilled."
Long-Lasting Results: The results of Sculptra can last for two years or more, making it a long-lasting option.
Improved Skin Texture and Quality: The newly produced collagen can improve skin texture, elasticity, and firmness, resulting in healthier-looking skin.
Biocompatible: Sculptra is made of a biocompatible material that is safely absorbed by the body over time.
Versatile Treatment: Sculptra can be used to address multiple facial concerns.

Initial Consultation: A consultation will be conducted to assess your facial anatomy, discuss your goals, and determine if you are a good candidate for Sculptra.
Treatment Plan: A customized treatment plan will be created based on your specific needs and goals.
Preparation: The treatment area will be cleansed, and a topical anesthetic cream or ice may be applied.
Injection: Sculptra is injected deep into the skin using a fine needle. Multiple injections are typically administered in the treatment area.
Massage: The treated area will be thoroughly massaged to ensure even distribution of the Sculptra.
Post-Procedure Instructions: You will be provided with aftercare instructions, including massaging the treated area several times a day for a few days.

Immediate Volume: You will notice a temporary volume increase immediately after the injections, due to the water component in the filler, but this will dissipate in a few days.
Gradual Improvement: The real results of Sculptra are seen gradually over time as your body produces new collagen. You will typically see significant improvements over several months.
Minimal Downtime: There is minimal downtime associated with Sculptra treatment, though you may experience some mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the injection sites.
Post-Treatment Care: Follow your provider's instructions regarding massaging the treated area and avoiding strenuous exercise.
