Sculptra
The one thing that keeps skin looking youthful is collagen.
Unfortunately you lose 1% of collagen per year after the age of
18 years of age. Sculptra works by stimulating the body’s
natural collagen production processes to restore volume, in
contrast to other fillers that instantly fill physical space under the
skin. Therefore restores volume for a more youthful
appearance. Sculptra is approved for aesthetic use nearly two
decades ago, Sculptra is another Galderma brand that uses the
power of poly-L-lactic acid.
Most other dermal fillers are a one-and-done type of treatment,
where you only need one treatment appointment at a time to
produce your ideal results. This filler is different because your
first treatment will actually include a round of three+
appointments in order to achieve optimal results over time. Your
initial treatments will usually be spaced a few weeks apart so
that we can assess your progress over a short period of time.
Within 3-6 months of the treatments
Not All Anti-Aging Treatments Are the Same:
Collagen creams: Collagen creams do not fully penetrate to the dermis, so most topical treatments are effective as moisturizers that briefly improve the skin’s appearance.
Collagen Supplements: When ingested, the digestive system breaks down collagen proteins and their effectiveness remains inconclusive.
Toxins: Toxins temporarily weaken muscles to minimize frown lines in the forehead. Results typically last a couple months
Fillers: Works immediately upon injection to fill in lines, wrinkles and folds

How Does It Work?
Sculptra is a poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) that is injected into the
skin and helps restore the deep, and underlying structure of the
skin to diminish facial wrinkles. As the Sculptra (PLLA)
collagen subtly and gradually over time to the skin’s inner
structure as the PLLA microparticles are absorbed, they may
help stimulate production. This process rebuilds collagen
strands and they begin to gradually help restore facial volume
and the look of fullness to wrinkles and folds over time.
