What is Sculptra?
Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that works gradually to restore facial volume and smooth out wrinkles and folds. Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra addresses the underlying cause of facial aging—loss of collagen. Collagen is a vital protein that keeps your skin firm, plump, and youthful. As we age, our collagen production decreases, leading to sagging skin and wrinkles. Sculptra helps replenish lost collagen, resulting in a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance. Now available in Dubai, this treatment is perfect for those seeking natural-looking results.
What is Sculptra Used For?
Sculptra is highly effective in restoring lost facial volume due to aging, illness, or significant weight loss. It targets areas such as the cheeks, temples, and jawline, providing a fuller and more youthful appearance.
By stimulating collagen production, Sculptra helps to smooth out wrinkles and fine lines, particularly around the nasolabial folds (smile lines), marionette lines, and chin wrinkles. This leads to a natural-looking reduction in facial aging signs over time.
Sculptra improves overall skin texture and elasticity. The increased collagen production results in firmer, more resilient skin, giving it a smoother and more refined look.
Sculptra is also used for non-surgical buttock augmentation, providing a subtle lift and improved contour. It’s an ideal option for those seeking a non-invasive alternative to traditional surgical procedures.
Sculptra can help in the treatment of certain types of facial scars, including acne scars. By promoting collagen growth, it aids in reducing the appearance of scars and improving the skin’s surface.
How does Sculptra work?
Sculptra contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible and biodegradable substance that has been used in medical treatments for decades. When injected into the deep dermis, Sculptra stimulates your body’s natural collagen
Over time, this increased collagen production helps to:
- Restore facial volume
- Smooth out deep lines and wrinkles
- Improve skin texture and elasticity
