Over time, multiple internal and external factors can lead to a visible decline in our skin’s appearance.8 Examples are smoking and prolonged sun exposure (external factors), a natural loss of collagen and elastin in our skin, a decrease and sliding of the fat pads, and a gradual degradation of our facial bone structure.9-12
Collagen and elastin are the key internal components for youthful skin10-14
Did you know that we lose about 1% of the collagen in our bodies per year from the age of 20?13 Sculptra® is made with the unique PLLA-SCA™ formulation, which works across all 3 skin layers.7,15,16 The treatment stimulates the production of our own collagen and elastin, with an increase in collagen type I, the most important collagen for youthful skin, by 66.5% at 3 months.6,7,17-21
Sculptra® addresses different skin needs and concerns
Over time, Sculptra® progressively restores the skin’s natural structure, addressing a range of different needs and concerns, such as loss of firmness and radiance, facial volume loss and skin sagging.18-25
Over time, due to lifestyle factors (like sun exposure and smoking) as well as natural aging, we may notice a range of different changes in our skin and face.8-12 These changes can be experienced in different ways, such as:
“My skin is turning dull and I’m starting to look older.”
“My face has lost natural volume, I look tired and unhealthy.”
“My face has started to fall. I look old and saggy.”
“My lower face looks too full and I want to look slimmer.”
No matter your concern, a treatment with Sculptra® can be tailored to suit your needs. Look better and feel better with skin that feels like you again.
Natural-looking results that make people feel better about themselves
The vast majority (89%) of people who have had a Sculptra® treatment think the results look natural and that they look younger.22 They also feel better about themselves and more confident (92%).
