Sculptra
Sculptra is a unique, FDA-approved injection designed to restore facial volume and improve wrinkles. Unlike facial fillers, Sculptra works by stimulating a patient’s skin to create more collagen. Based on Dr. Kim’s experience, the main ingredient in Sculptra (an injectable poly-L-lactic acid) is much more effective at creating natural collagen than other products such as Radiesse. Sculptra is best for patients who want a natural look and feel that improves gradually over time.
Candidates
Good candidates for Sculptra wish to correct loss of facial volume and wrinkles of the face. They must be willing to accept more gradual change than expected with other fillers. Dr. Kim will discuss the timeline and the expected results with each patient.
Procedure
Sculptra injections take just a few minutes and can be administered in the office. Depending on a patient’s needs, either one or two vials of Sculptra can be injected during a session. In total, most patients will require three to six vials of Sculptra in total. The injection sessions are done at four week intervals until the desired facial volume is achieved.
Recovery
No recovery is necessary after Sculptra injections. Some patients may experience swelling or bruising at the injection site. Patients may resume normal activities and skincare routines immediately following Sculptra injections.
