Rebuild Softness and Volume
What is Sculptra?
You may be familiar with hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers such as Juvederm and Restylane. Like those products, Sculptra is designed to smooth and revitalize your complexion by building up volume under the skin. However, Sculptra is formulated with poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible solution that has been used in medical settings for many years. Unlike fillers that provide immediate results, Sculptra works gradually over time by upping collagen production in the treatment area. This can result in a more natural-looking and long-lasting improvement in facial volume and contours. Typically, multiple treatment sessions are scheduled to achieve the desired results, which can last for up to two years or longer.
Lift, Soften, & Sculpt
What are the benefits of Sculptra?
Sculptra is an excellent choice for individuals with facial wrinkles and folds, loss of elasticity, and diminished volume in areas like the cheeks or temples. It is delivered via minimally invasive injections, which deliver a gradual increase in volume that can last two years or longer. When considering treatment with Sculptra Manhattan patients should know that some common treatment areas include:
- Smile lines (nasolabial folds), which extend from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth.
- Marionette lines running run from the corners of the mouth downward to the chin.
- Chin wrinkles, creases, and fine lines
- Temples, especially hollowing in this area caused by aging.
- Cheeks, to improve volume, smoothness, and contours.
- Jawline definition and contouring for a more youthful and defined appearance.
Many people benefit from a treatment that addresses multiple areas for the most comprehensive results.
Contoured Perfection
Your Sculptra Procedure
Most people benefit from a series of Sculptra sessions spaced several weeks apart. This approach helps to build up volume gradually and finetune your results for long-lasting improvements in the tone, texture, and elasticity of your skin. The first step is a detailed consultation with your aesthetic specialist to ensure your treatment reflects your individual needs and goals. Before performing the injections, your provider will apply a topical anesthetic to keep the pinch of the injections to a minimum.
A narrow needle is used to administer injections precisely at the exact depth and location to provide the ideal plumping and smoothing effect. When this process is complete, your provider may gently massage the treated area to ensure even distribution. At our practice in Manhattan Sculptra sessions last less around 30 minutes to an hour, after which you’ll be cleared to return to most of your regular routine while taking a few precautions as the treatment area recovers.
Natural & Gradual Results
Sculptra Recovery and Aftercare
Following a Sculptra session, you will likely have some temporary side effects, such as swelling, tenderness, redness, or bruising around the injection sites. These effects usually subside after a few days. Avoiding strenuous exercise, alcohol consumption, and too much sun for the first 24 to 48 hours will help the area calm down. Gentle massage of the treated areas may also be recommended to ensure even distribution of the product. Your provider will go over all of your aftercare requirements with you and check your progress at subsequent sessions.

These results continue to enhance over time, providing a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance. The effects of Sculptra can last up to two years or more, depending on individual factors such as age, lifestyle, and metabolism, making it a low-maintenance solution for facial rejuvenation.
