Natural-Looking Lift
What is Sculptra?
Sculptra is a unique injectable treatment that works beneath the skin to gradually restore facial volume, fill in hollows, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and folds. Unlike traditional fillers that add instant volume, Sculptra stimulates your body's natural collagen production, leading to subtle improvements over time. This collagen production helps to:
- Restore lost facial volume
- Fill in wrinkles and folds
- Enhance facial definition
- Achieve a smoother, more youthful appearance
Sculptra's Long-Lasting Approach
What is the Sculptra procedure like?
The Sculptra procedure involves injecting a poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) solution into specific areas of the face. Dr. Addison will discuss your desired outcome and personalize the injection points to achieve your goals. The treatment is typically well-tolerated, and a topical numbing cream can be applied for added comfort.
