Sculptra at CosmeticsMD
Sculptra isn't your typical filler; it's a collagen stimulator. It's like a face lift in a bottle!
Targeting the core of facial aging, Sculptra gradually replaces lost collagen, a fundamental protein essential for skin structure.
Administered through injections by our certified Cosmetic Injectors, Sculptra jumpstarts collagen production, addressing wrinkles and restoring facial volume to cheeks, temples, jawline and marionette lines. This FDA-approved injectable is meticulously designed to combat facial aging by replenishing lost collagen, the foundational protein for cells and tissues.
With results extending beyond two years, Sculptra becomes a reliable choice for individuals seeking la ong-lasting facial rejuvenation treatment. Operating as a Poly-L-lactic Acid (PLLA) Collagen Stimulator, it works at a deep dermal level, effectively reducing facial wrinkles and contributing to a natural-looking outcome. The slow and steady strength of Sculptra's approach involves the gradual absorption of biocompatible and biodegradable poly-L-lactic acid, facilitating the rebuilding of lost collagen.
Before starting Sculptra treatments, a Cosmetic Consultation is required. This crucial step ensures a personalized assessment, determining the suitability of Sculptra for individual needs and goals.
Sculptra treatments are eligible for Aspire Rewards by Galderma.
