Hello Younger Skin and Facial Rejuvenation!
Sculptra Treatment in Scottsdale Arizona
With age, your skin’s natural collagen supply decreases and you may start to notice wrinkles and facial aging. Activate your skin’s natural regenerative process with Sculptra Aesthetic and help replenish lost collagen. This FDA approved injectable restores facial volume without looking like you’ve had work done.
If you want to appear more youthful without looking like you have had work done, then Sculptra Aesthetic may be a great choice for you. As a poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) collagen stimulator, Sculptra Aesthetic helps restore the deep, underlying structure of the skin to diminish facial wrinkles. Sculptra Aesthetic works with your body within the deep dermis to help revitalize collagen production and help restore your skin’s inner structure and volume. As the Sculptra Aesthetic PLLA microparticles are absorbed, they help stimulate collagen production.
Rebuilt collagen strands begin gradually helping to restore facial volume and the look of fullness to wrinkles and folds that can last up to 2-5 years.

To sustain the effects of your Sculptra injections, it’s critical to adhere to post-treatment instructions.
What to do post-treatment
- Wash the area twice daily with a mild cleanser.
- Use an ice pack or cold compress to ease discomfort and swelling. Do this numerous times per day for 10 minutes at a time.
- For the first 24 hours, stay away from intense activities because they can worsen inflammation.

what not to do post-treatment

- For at least one month following treatment, avoid using retinoids, exfoliants, or face peels on the treated region.
- Avoid picking, rubbing, scratching, or massaging the area as this could irritate it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which areas does Sculptra Aesthetic treat?
Sculptra Aesthetic is used to correct shallow to deep wrinkles and folds on the face. It is clinically approved for smile lines such as nasolabial folds and the lines around the mouth, known as the marionette lines. Our providers can also help restore facial volume to the temples, cheeks, jawline and chin. They can also improve wrinkling in areas of the body such as the chest, elbows and knees.
How many treatment sessions are required?
On average, a series of three treatment sessions over the course of a few months may be needed. The number of injections at each session will vary, depending on the degree of correction needed and the treatment plan determined by you and our providers.
How soon will I see results?
Sculptra Aesthetic is designed to give you noticeable results that emerge gradually and can last more than two years to five years. Don’t be disappointed if you don’t see immediate results. A few days after treatment, you may look as you did before treatment. This is normal and temporary. The Sculptra Aesthetic regimen delivers its full effects with an average of three treatment sessions over the course of a few months. Because results happen gradually, you’ll see subtle, yet noticeable, results in the reduction of facial wrinkles and folds by comparing images before treatment and a couple months following treatment.
How much does Sculptra Aesthetic cost?
The number of vials used and the amount of treatment sessions can vary from patient to patient due to the amount of volume loss and desired results. Our providers will give you a clear treatment plan and cost with a complimentary consultation.
What are the common side effects of Sculptra?
Sculptra side effects are typical of those from other dermal injections. Swelling, bruising, tenderness, discomfort at the injection site, itching, bleeding, and lumps are the most typical adverse effects.
Is there any downtime with Sculptra?
You don’t need to plan any time off of work after receiving Sculptra treatment, and there is no downtime necessary. Exercise is not advised for 24 hours following injections to avoid swelling and infection in the treatment area.
