Sculptra

Sculptra is an injectable bio-stimulator, different from a typical filler. Instead of simply adding volume under the skin, it activates your body’s natural ability to produce collagen, helping restore firmness and smoothness from within.

Over the next few months, the skin gradually becomes fuller, firmer, and more youthful-looking. It rebuilds the skin’s own collagen network, the results can last up to 2 years after completing a treatment series.

FAQs

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Sculptra is a bio-stimulator that gradually encourages your skin’s natural collagen production. It helps improve skin structure and fullness, creating a refreshed, natural-looking result that develops over time.

HOW LONG DO THE RESULTS LAST?

Results from Sculptra develop gradually over a few months as your skin produces new collagen. Once achieved, the effects can last up to 2 years, depending on your skin, lifestyle and the number of treatment sessions you have.

Your practitioner will guide you on maintenance options to help keep your results looking their best.

ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS TO SCULPTRA?

Depending on the sensitivity of your skin and any medications (like aspirin, ibuprofen, and other blood thinners) you may be taking, there is the chance of temporary, minor side effects including:

  • Small bumps may appear directly after treatment at or around the injection site
  • Mild swelling / puffiness around injection site
  • Mild tenderness, bruising or redness around injection site

All risks and side effects will be discussed in-depth with your medical practitioner at your appointment.

IS IT SORE?

Everyone experiences pain differently and has a different pain threshold. With Sculptra, we apply a good application of our anaesthetic cream which takes any discomfort away.

IS IT SAFE?

There is always a risk when having injectable treatments, however the biggest risks occur from inexperienced injectors with poor knowledge of facial anatomy. Therefore, it is so important to ensure you have treatment carried out in an HIS registered clinic by a medically qualified experienced injector, who can deal with any complications.
