See the collagen-building power of Sculptra and watch wrinkles soften and hollow areas regain youthful volume. At DinaMD, led by Dr. Dina Eliopoulos in Boston Sculptra is one of the versatile tools we use to help our patients achieve their aesthetic goals. With a huge variety of possibilities that include everything from softening laugh lines to enhancing volume and contour, this treatment may be the answer to your volume restoration question.
Similar to lactic acid naturally found in the body, biocompatible Sculptra is a unique type of injectable. Sculptra works to restore volume, soften wrinkles, or add new volume by actively stimulating collagen and elastin production in the treated area. Collagen and elastic are important building blocks in the skin that keep it looking young and supple. By helping to restore these components, Sculptra provides effective and ongoing rejuvenation.
Sculptra is in a category of injectables known as biostimulators, meaning that they encourage your skin and the underlying layers to start a natural process of renewal. In contrast, dermal fillers, which are typically made with hyaluronic acid, work by actually “filling” the area with serum to produce the appearance of more volume. Dermal fillers typically only last around six months to one year, while Sculptra often lasts around two years or longer.
Sculptra is so effective at volume restoration that not only can it be used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and create a more youthful profile, it can even be used to add new volume. This treatment is commonly used to restore facial volume, smooth wrinkles, and improve skin texture. It can also address loose skin in areas such as the knees or upper arms, providing a non-surgical option for rejuvenation. Along with this versatility, Sculptra comes with very little risk of side effects or allergic reactions since it is biocompatible.
Sculptra is extremely versatile and can be used nearly anywhere on the body to rebuild collagen and restore volume.
Since Sculptra is made with biostimulating poly-L-lactic acid, it is incredibly versatile not only throughout the body but also for many different individuals. Great candidates are women and men with virtually any skin type or tone who would like to reap the benefits of collagen restoration.
This incredibly effective treatment can address multiple types of aesthetic concerns.
During your personalized consultation, our providers will discuss all available options to address your aesthetic goals. If we decide together that Sculptra is a great option for you, we will put together a detailed treatment plan, including any needed preparations, possible risks, and side effects, along with pricing information.
At the start of your appointment, the treatment area will be thoroughly cleansed, and if necessary, we may use a topical numbing cream. Sculptra serum is also blended with lidocaine for maximum comfort. Next, the injections will be carefully administered by one of our aesthetic medical experts to achieve the best possible results. The entire appointment generally lasts around 30 to 45 minutes.
Right after the procedure, you might experience mild tenderness at the injection sites, but you can return to your normal activities immediately. We typically suggest a series of two to three treatments spaced four to six weeks apart. These follow-up sessions often enhance the effectiveness and length of the initial results.
