Sculptra's poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) is a biocompatible, biodegradable collagen stimulator that works differently from traditional fillers: instead of providing immediate volume, it triggers the skin’s natural regenerative processes to produce new collagen over time. This gradual volume restoration (over 3–6 months) results in exceptionally natural-looking outcomes that avoid the “overfilled” appearance. The 150mg formulation is specifically optimized for large-volume areas like the buttocks, requiring fewer treatment sessions than lower-concentration fillers. With results lasting up to 2 years—significantly longer than HA fillers—it offers a cost-effective long-term solution for buttock augmentation.
| Technical Parameters |
Active Ingredient: Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA)
Particle Size: Microparticles
Reconstitution: Requires reconstitution with sterile water for injection (typically with lidocaine for patient comfort) prior to use.
Concentration: Varies depending on reconstitution.
Volume per Vial: Varies depending on the product.
| Product Uses |
Buttock augmentation: Enhances overall projection and lifts sagging buttocks by stimulating collagen growth in the deep subcutaneous layer, creating a more rounded, youthful shape without surgery.
Cellulite reduction: Improves skin texture by thickening the dermis and increasing collagen density, which reduces the appearance of dimpling and unevenness.
Symmetry correction: Addresses volume discrepancies between the left and right buttocks, which may result from genetics, injury, or uneven muscle development.
| Product Operate Guide |
Reconstitute the 150mg Sculptra vial with 16–20mL of sterile water 24 hours before use to ensure complete dissolution of PLLA particles .
Advise patients to avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, and other anti-inflammatory drugs for 10 days prior to reduce bruising and swelling.
Mark treatment zones based on the patient’s anatomy, focusing on areas needing volume enhancement or contouring.
Administer injections in the deep subcutaneous layer using a 22G cannula (instead of a needle) to minimize trauma, bruising, and downtime .
Utilize the “Firm and Up” technique, which targets three key zones: the upper contour (to create a lifted appearance), mid-projection (to add fullness), and lower skin quality (to smooth cellulite).
Inject in a fan pattern to distribute the product evenly, with total volume per session ranging from 2–4 vials depending on desired results.
Instruct patients to massage the treated area 5 minutes per day for 5 days to prevent PLLA particle clumping and reduce the risk of nodules .
Advise avoiding pressure on the buttocks (such as sitting for prolonged periods) for 48 hours to ensure proper product distribution.
Results begin to appear after 6–8 weeks as collagen production increases, with full correction achieved at 4–6 months post-final session.
| FAQ |
How many sessions are needed?
Most patients require 2–4 sessions spaced 6–8 weeks apart to achieve optimal volume, as collagen synthesis builds gradually with each treatment.
Is downtime required?
Downtime is minimal: mild swelling, bruising, or soreness may occur but typically resolves within 2–3 days.
Can it be combined with other treatments?
Yes, Sculptra for buttocks is often combined with fat grafting to enhance projection or laser therapy to improve skin texture, with treatments spaced 2–4 weeks apart.
Are there long-term risks?
PLLA is gradually absorbed by the body over time, with no permanent residue. Rare nodules can be managed with massage or, in severe cases, corticosteroid injections.
