You’ve started on your aesthetic journey to love who you see in the mirror. You want to gain back your youthful glow: plumper, firmer, healthier skin, but you’re not interested in dermal fillers.
Your next step is increasing your body’s natural collagen production with collagen injections in Greensboro. This means your next step is Sculptra.
Sculptra helps you build your own collagen reserves using an FDA-approved injectable known as poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA).
At Restoration MedSpa, our team of highly trained medical providers masterfully inject Sculptra for a “signature 2-year glow.”
What Is Sculptra?
Sculptra is a biostimulator (a substance that stimulates natural body processes), improving collagen production and restoring your natural, authentic beauty at the skin’s foundation.
It gradually improves facial volume, so there’s no fear of “filler face,” or looking “overdone.” In the hands of our injectors, Sculptra results are subtle but powerful, lending our clients a youthful glow from the inside out.
We recommend Sculptra for clients experiencing volume loss in the face, neck, and body due to aging or weight loss.
What Is Poly-L-Lactic Acid?
Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) is Sculptra’s main active ingredient. It stimulates the fibroblasts in your skin, which increases collagen and elastin production and rejuvenates the skin. These two boosted proteins strengthen the skin’s structure and improve elasticity, giving you tighter skin.
Unlike other aesthetic injections, poly-L-lactic yields gradual, long-lasting results instead of immediate ones. It takes 1 to 4 months following the first injection to yield noticeable improvements to the skin, and results can last up to 2 years.
The Benefits of Sculptra Injections
Clients often choose Sculptra injections as an alternative to dermal fillers because it:
- Enhances skin texture and elasticity
- Improves the appearance of crepey skin
- Tightens loose skin, reducing fine lines and wrinkles
- Refines the appearance of the jawline for facial balancing
- Restores volume lost to declining collagen production
- May improve the appearance of cellulite
Where Is Sculptra Injected?
While most commonly injected in the face, particularly around the temples and cheeks, Sculptra is safe for many areas of the body, including the:
- Neck, for enhanced jawline definition.
- Décolletage, to reduce wrinkles and folds on the neck and chest.
- Hips, to minimize the appearance of “hip dips.”
- Buttocks, in a procedure known as a Sculptra butt lift.
We cannot safely inject Sculptra into the lips, breasts, or pre-orbital (the eyelids and undereyes) area due to the delicate nature of the skin, which are likely to bruise, swell, or form nodules (hard bumps under the skin).
