Q: Will I look natural after Sculptra injections?

Yes. Sculptra is made of poly-L-lactic that gives gradual, natural, beautiful results over time.

Q: Can I get Sculptra and dermal fillers together?

Yes. We often combine the treatments for a liquid lift. Also Sculptra is not an appropriate injectable for the lips so many clients get lip rejuvenation injections with dermal filler at the same visit as a Sculptra session.

Q: Do I need to massage my Sculptra injections?

No. In the early days of Sculptra Aesthetic, we recommended massaging the treated area for a few days after treatment. Sculptra does not need massaged after placement now. However it does not hurt the product to massage it.

What we tell our patients: Sculptra is a key treatment to slow down aging and maintaining a youthful facial shape.

What is Sculptra?

Sculptra is a cosmetic injectable composed of a collagen stimulator called poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). When injected into soft tissue, PLLA stimulates your body’s collagen production which gradually replaces lost facial volume, gives a natural lift and reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

“Sculptra is the go-to cosmetic treatment for patients who want to maintain facial shape and youthfulness and prefer gradual and long-lasting results. It can be used in combination with traditional dermal fillers or as a dermal filler alternative.”

Courtney Lo, CEO & Founder

What is it like to get a Sculptra treatment?

Consultation & PLan

During your consultation the RN or PA discuss your aging concerns, Sculptra cost, your medical history and expected results.

Fun fact: Cosmetic Skin & Laser Center was top Sculptra injector in Michigan two years in a row. And top 15 nationwide.

Treatment Day

Topical numbing medicine is applied prior to treatment for your comfort. The number of vials administered is determined by patient age, volume loss seen, and goals.

Sculptra is precisely placed in area of concern with a cannula blunt needle or a needle.

Gradual, long lasting results

There is no downtime after the treatment. Sculptra injections rarely bruise. Results appear over 6-12 weeks and last for over two years.

We recommend 1-2 vials per year for maintenance.

Sculptra Frequently Asked Questions

When should I start Sculptra injections?

Many clients start Sculptra in the 30s, as collagen production dramatically slows down in the 20s. One to three vials are injected per visit with repeat injections as needed. When seeking full correction, it is common to be seen 2-4 times about 4-12 weeks apart. The best results are actually 12 weeks after injections.

Want to maintain how you look now? Maintaining facial volume and skin structure generally requires 1-2 vials a year. FDA-approved Sculptra is made from poly-L-lactic acid, the same material that’s been used in dissolvable sutures for more than 20 years, with results that last over two years. Sculptra consultations are complimentary in all 4 of our locations in Michigan and Florida.
