Why Sculptra?

Sculptra is an excellent tool to combat the visible signs of aging, and many patients are discovering the many benefits of using Sculptra to give their face a more youthful, fuller appearance.

Sculptra has been used cosmetically outside the U.S. since 1999 and is a very popular procedure in Europe and Canada. In 2004 Sculptra was FDA approved for use in volume restoration from fat loss (facial lipoatrophy) for HIV patients. In July of 2009, the FDA approved Sculptra for the cosmetic indications of volume deficiency and facial wrinkles.

Benefits of Sculptra Injections:

Reduced Risk of Allergic Reaction

Sculptra is made from poly L lactic acid and is compatible with the human skin and will be absorbed in the body without causing any adverse reactions.

No Skin Damage

Since there are no incisions, scarring is not a factor of Sculptra injections.  The needles used are very thin and do not cause any skin damage.

Non Surgical

The Sculptra Liquid Facelift is a procedure that won’t require surgery, just a few injections.  A Liquid Facelift may be performed without any anesthesia.  Sometimes topical numbing agents may be applied, but most patients report very minimal discomfort.

Delays Surgery

Getting a Liquid Facelift with Sculptra and other dermal fillers means that the face will receive a younger appearance. On average, the effects of Liquid Facelift are visible for 2 years.  For those that don’t want to go under the knife, the liquid facelift is a viable solution with incredible, lasting results.
