What Is Sculptra?
Sculptra is an injectable made from poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible substance that stimulates the skin to produce new collagen. Rather than giving an instant result like filler, it works gradually over a course of treatments, restoring lost support and improving skin quality.
Because change builds over months, results tend to look very natural — friends notice you look well, rather than that something has been done.
Is It Right for You?
Sculptra tends to suit people with gradual volume loss, thinning skin or early laxity who are happy to wait for results to develop. It is commonly used for the temples, cheeks and lower face.
It is not suitable for the lips or under-eyes, and it requires commitment to a course and aftercare massage. It cannot be dissolved, so careful assessment matters.
