Sculptra


What is Sculptra?
Sculptra Aesthetic is a unique, FDA-approved injectable treatment designed to restore facial volume and stimulate natural collagen production. Unlike traditional fillers, which provide immediate but temporary results, Sculptra works gradually by encouraging your skin to produce more collagen, leading to long-lasting improvements in facial contours and skin texture. This makes Sculptra ideal for patients seeking a natural-looking, subtle enhancement over time.
At Village Dermatology, our expert team of board-certified dermatologists uses Sculptra to help patients achieve a more youthful and refreshed appearance. The treatment is particularly effective for those looking to restore volume lost due to aging, improve skin elasticity, and enhance overall facial structure.
How Does Sculptra Work?
Sculptra is composed of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible and biodegradable substance that stimulates the body’s collagen production. When injected into targeted areas, Sculptra promotes the gradual rebuilding of collagen, which naturally restores volume and structure to the skin. The skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more youthful in appearance over time.
What Areas Can Sculptra Treat?
Sculptra is versatile and can be used to restore volume and improve skin texture in several areas of the face:
- Cheeks: Add volume to sunken cheeks and restore fullness for a youthful look.
- Jawline: Define and enhance the contours of the jawline for a more sculpted appearance.
- Temples: Address hollowing in the temple area, which is a common sign of aging.
- Nasolabial Folds: Smooth deep lines around the mouth and nose, often referred to as smile lines.
- Chin: Improve chin projection and add structure to the lower face.
