HOW LONG DOES SCULPTRA LAST? HOW MANY SCULPTRA TREATMENTS ARE NEEDED?
As our body ages, it loses a significant amount of collagen and elastin. Collagen and elastin are what make our skin supple, firm, and younger-looking. These two provide our skin elasticity to “snap back” into place when pinched. Aging slows down the body’s natural ability to produce both collagen and elastin.
Recent advancements in aesthetics treatments can boost collagen and elastin production and help the skin regain lost firmness. These advancements in aesthetics are delivering some fantastic results (results will vary). Sculptra is a component known to assist in collagen rejuvenation and address a variety of skin conditions. Sculptra will make you look youthful as it stimulates collagen production. Collagen production will also provide long-term anti-aging benefits.
What is Sculptra?
Sculptra is an exceptional anti-aging solution for enhancing facial features. Sculptra is different from other dermal products on the market. Dermal fillers consist of hyaluronic acid; they work upon only one particular area, such as the cheeks, chin, jawline, lips, or under the eyes. Such fillers may show instant results but only produce results for 6-18 months. Sculptra is unique from hyaluronic acid fillers. It is made of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) and is used in areas such as the temples, hairline, high cheek in front of the ears, and the jawline impacting the structure of the face and rejuvenating the skin. Sculptra aids in smoothing wrinkles, fine lines and addresses volume loss in the face.
How does Sculptra work?
During the consultation, the injector will run a comprehensive assessment of the skin that needs to be treated. The injector will review details regarding the patient medical history, medications, or any allergies. Medical history is crucial to avoid any risks and complications during the procedure. Patients will need to stop any blood thinners for a few days to reduce the risk of bleeding. The procedure begins with mapping injection sites and proper cleansing of the area. Topical anesthesia will be given to reduce any discomfort. The injector will begin the procedure by delivering multiple injections into the skin. This treatment is only minimally invasive, and you will be allowed to go back to your routine instantly post-treatment. Your injector will advise you of any special instructions.
General guidelines:
- Ice pack the treated site intermittently after the procedure.
- Avoid direct sunlight until the swelling is gone.
- Do not perform any excessive physical activity for 24 hours.
How long does Sculptra last, and how many Sculptra treatments are needed?
Sculptra, results can be seen as early as two months after the initial treatment and can last up to 24 months. Yearly treatments are optimal to continue in the production of collagen. Patients will see a gradual improvement. The number of treatments required varies per individual. The number of treatments is dependent on the amount of collagen or volume loss in the body before treatment. Consultations before treatment will determine how much Sculptra is needed for each patient.
Who is a Good Candidate for Treatment?
Individuals suffering from volume loss on the skin, wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin due to weight loss, aging, or other factors are perfect candidates for this treatment. Sculptra must be avoided by individuals who show any allergic reactions to any of the main ingredients.
How much downtime is thereafter a treatment?
A patient can go back to his routine right after the procedure. The majority of patients are advised a day of calmer activities to give a soothing relief for the redness or swelling in the treated area. Reactions such as swelling subside within a few days, but patients are advised to limit strenuous physical activity. Tenderness, itching, swelling, or slight bruising are common side effects in all types of fillers.
