Sculptra® Aesthetic

The effects of aging, fatigue, and sun damage can deter the health and quality of your skin, often leading to noticeable concerns like deep creases, thinning features, and sunken facial areas. While these factors are typically exacerbated by reduced collagen production in the body, there are effective non-surgical treatments at our New York City-area practice to make the face more youthful and help you age more gracefully. Sculptra® is a collagen stimulator designed to fill creases, as well as plump the lips, cheeks, and other areas affected by depleted facial volume. The results can be remarkably enduring, even lasting as long as two years for many patients!

What is Sculptra® Aesthetic?

Sculptra® is an injectable filler treatment performed to firm, plump, and rejuvenate the tone and texture of your skin. Composed of poly-L-lactic acid microparticles, Sculptra® can be a minimally invasive method of adding volume to flat features and filling mid-facial creases while still boosting natural collagen production. Thanks to its role as a collagen stimulator, the effects of Sculptra® can often be seen for years after treatment. Dr. Neal Goldberg, our board-certified plastic surgeon, offers Sculptra® to enhance volume in the lips, cheeks, nasolabial folds, and marionette lines.

Is Sculptra® Aesthetic Right for Me?

With Sculptra®, men and women seeking long-lasting rejuvenation can help address signs of aging  such as:  

  • Cheek wrinkles
  • Nasolabial folds, or “parentheses wrinkles”
  • Marionette lines, or creases extending downward from the corners of the lips to the chin
  • Lines on the chin

Dr. Goldberg offers many different injectable treatments and our team understands it can be difficult to determine the right product for your goals. Dr. Goldberg also offers treatment with BOTOX® Cosmetic, JUVÉDERM, and Restylane®, among many other filler options.

How is Treatment with Sculptra® Aesthetic Performed?

Completed in-office, Sculptra® injections usually take no longer than 15 to 30 minutes. Using a very fine needle, your injector will deliver Sculptra® into the cheeks, lips, or mid-facial creases until the desired results are achieved. A numbing agent can be applied prior to injections, if necessary, however patients do not typically report pain during the process. The best results are usually achieved with a series of injections, and our team generally recommends three sessions spaced approximately three to four weeks apart. That said, your treatment plan will be customized according to your personal needs and goals.

What Can I Expect From the Results of Sculptra® Aesthetic?

Rejuvenation from Sculptra® typically unfolds gradually and patients often see the effects of treatment within one month of injections. The collagen-stimulating properties of Sculptra® allow more enduring results when compared to other injectables, even lasting as long as two years after your initial treatment.

Sculptra® can firm and rejuvenate your skin with results that last as long as two years. Contact our Westchester practice today for more information about our injectable treatments, or to book an appointment.
