Our Services > Fillers > Sculptra(R): Sculptra(R) is an injectable product that is intended to restore and correct the signs of facial fat loss. Sculptra is not made from human or animal sources. Sculptra is composed of poly-L-lactic acid, which is a synthetic product. Poly-L-lactic acid is biocompatible (does not harm the body) and biodegradable (able to be broken down by the body). This product is effective when used to fill wrinkles and furrows. It makes the skin appear smoother and firmer, enabling it to resemble its previous elasticity. Sculptra provides an increase in the skin thickness of the areas where volume (fat) has been lost, helping to restore fullness to the face for a more natural appearance. Most patients require one to three treatments every two to four weeks and the increase in skin thickness lasts up to two years. Excellent results can be achieved with Sculptra when treating all parts of the face including the forehead, around the eyes and lips, between the mouth and nose, and the cheeks. Sculptra can add volume to the cheeks, to folds around the chin, and to rings around the eyes.
