Product Advantage |
Sculptra's PLLA particles act as a bioactive stimulus, triggering the skin’s fibroblasts to produce new collagen—a process that addresses the root cause of aging: collagen loss. Unlike HA fillers that plump wrinkles temporarily, this collagen synthesis delivers gradual, natural-looking wrinkle reduction and skin rejuvenation. Results develop over 3–6 months and last 2–3 years, making it a long-term alternative to facelifts for patients seeking non-surgical rejuvenation. Its versatile formulation improves not just wrinkle depth but also skin elasticity, texture, and overall radiance, providing comprehensive facial renewal.
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 |
Facial rejuvenation: Smooths deep static wrinkles (such as nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and jowls) by plumping the underlying tissue, and restores volume to cheek hollows caused by aging.
Neck tightening: Reduces horizontal neck lines (often called “tech neck”) and improves loose neck skin by stimulating collagen in the delicate neck dermis.
Hand rejuvenation: Fills sunken areas on the dorsum of the hands, reduces visibility of veins and tendons, and improves skin tone by thickening the dermal layer.
Product Operate Guide |
Reconstitute Sculptra with 8–12mL sterile water (depending on treatment area) 24 hours before use, with additional lidocaine added for sensitive areas like the neck .
Apply topical anesthesia (e.g., EMLA cream) 30 minutes before treatment to minimize discomfort, especially for facial and neck injections.
Mark wrinkle lines, hollow areas, and target zones for volume restoration based on facial anatomy.
Administer micro-injections into the deep dermis using a 30G needle for precise placement, avoiding the superficial layer to reduce nodule risk.
For facial wrinkles, inject along the wrinkle line and surrounding area to “fill from within”; for cheek hollows, use a fan technique to distribute product evenly.
Total treatment time for full-face correction is 30–45 minutes, with hand or neck treatments taking 15–20 minutes each.
Instruct patients to massage treated areas 5 minutes/day for 5 days to ensure PLLA particles are evenly distributed and prevent clumping .
Recommend daily sunscreen use (SPF 30+) to shield new collagen from UV damage, which can degrade results prematurely.
FAQ |
Q: How long does Sculptra last?
A: Results can last up to 2 years or more.
Q: How many treatments are needed?
A: A series of 2-4 treatments spaced several weeks apart is usually recommended.
Q: Is it painful?
A: Some discomfort may be experienced during the injections, but lidocaine is often added to the Sculptra solution to minimize pain.
Q: What are the side effects?
A: Common side effects include injection-site redness, swelling, bruising, tenderness, and possible nodule formation.
Q: How much does Sculptra cost?
A: Cost varies depending on the number of vials used and the provider's fees.
Q: How quickly will I see results?
A: Sculptra works gradually, so you may not see noticeable results for several weeks or months. Full results are typically visible after a few months.
