Sculptra®
Sculptra is an injectable product that restores and corrects the signs of age-related facial fat loss by replacing volume. This replacement of volume and the associated stimulation of natural collagen growth also reduces wrinkles. It is commonly used for facial shaping to:
- Correct and restore a more youthful look under the eye area.
- Enhance and add volume to the cheeks.
- Rejuvenate sagging earlobes and the nose as an alternative to rhinoplasty.
- Assist people with HIV or other chronic illness who have lost a lot of facial fat.
Sculptra is a synthetic injectable material known as poly-L-lactic acid. Poly-L-lactic acid is biocompatible (a material that does not harm the body) and biodegradable (able to be broken down by the body). Poly-L-lactic acid has been widely used for many years.
Benefits & Features of Sculptra:
- Sculptra can last up to 2 years
