Sculptra® Aesthetic: Collagen Restoration

The Pittsburgh Center for Plastic Surgery offers a number of non-invasive cosmetic treatments for patients who would like an alternative to facial cosmetic surgery. One of the most exciting is Sculptra Aesthetic. At our state-of-the-art plastic surgery center in Pittsburgh Sculptra injections can correct deep nasolabial fold contour deficiencies and other wrinkles.

The only FDA-approved treatment for the loss of facial fat, Sculptra promotes the production of collagen in your skin, to help patients achieve natural-looking results that can last more than two years.

What Is Sculptra Aesthetic?

Facial fat loss (lipoatrophy), is an age-related condition that can result in prominent facial folds, sunken eyes, and hollow cheeks. Sculptra Aesthetic targets these areas to correct shallow to deep facial wrinkles and folds. The treatment is suited to nasolabial folds (smile lines) between the nose and mouth, the lines framing the mouth (marionette lines), and wrinkles in the chin. Sculptra is made from a biocompatible substance known as poly-L-lactic acid, a synthetic version of the substance naturally produced by the body during exercise. Because Sculptra is not derived from human or animal products, no skin test is required.*

Why Choose Sculptra?

Sculptra is one of the newest injectable skin treatments available in the U.S., and it differs from other dermal fillers such as Restylane in some important ways. Instead of just plumping the skin, Sculptra promotes collagen production for gradual rejuvenation. With a series of approximately three injections over the course of a few months, you can experience subtle effects that last for more than two years.*

What to Expect

Sculptra treatment typically takes less than an hour. First, a topical anesthetic will be applied to the treatment area. Next, the doctor will inject the product into areas of fat loss. Treatments are spaced four to six weeks apart, and the number of treatments you will need depends on how much collagen you have lost. Most often, maintenance treatment is recommended once a year.

After a treatment with Sculptra Pittsburgh patients will gradually see improvement. Depending on the degree of fat loss and your goals, it can take multiple treatments over the course of several months to achieve the best results. Clinical studies demonstrate that the effects of Sculptra last significantly longer than hyaluronic acid fillers. Over time, your body will naturally absorb the substance, and you will need touch-up treatments to maintain results.

Sculptra Aesthetic revitalizes the production of collagen in your skin, achieving natural-looking results that can last more than two years.

Enjoy the Benefits

Sculptra Aesthetic offers a variety of benefits*:

Sculptra stimulates collagen production, working deep in the skin to rebuild underlying facial structures, which can produce a refined, younger-looking appearance over time.

Sculptra Aesthetic has been used in Europe for over 15 years, and was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2009.

Results are often noticeable but extremely subtle, and you should not look as if you have had work done to your face.

As with our other non-invasive procedures, treatment is quick and simple, with no downtime required.

Because it has been in use for so long, the main ingredient in Sculptra is predictable and known to be safe.
