Sculptra is a synthetic, injectable facial filler made from biocompatible material known as poly-L-lactic acid that naturally stimulates the body to produce its own collagen.

Sculptra works progressively, gradually lifting and firming up the skin in select depressed areas.

The dermal filler, Sculptra, slowly improves the skin’s thickness over time by gradually and subtly correcting facial abnormalities.

HOW IS SCULPTRA PERFORMED?
Dr. Freund expertly injects Sculptra filler into selected areas of your face that have lost volume and formed a crease or a line. During the treatment, the dermal filler Sculptra is injected into pre-determined areas often mapped out on the face. Topical anesthetic may be used, depending on the sensitivity or depth of the targeted site. There is a slight sting upon injection but there is very little discomfort afterward. After Sculptra injections, it is common to gently massage the treated area to ensure an even distribution of Sculptra beneath your skin. Dermal filler treatments can take just minutes per area to perform and are nearly pain free. They are done with a very fine needle that minimizes the discomfort of the injection.

Depending on your goals, recommend a series of three to six treatments is recommended, spaced evenly over three to six weeks to achieve the best possible results. Your treated areas should look fuller and maintain their improved appearance for up to two years.
