The main ingredient is a biocompatible, biodegradable synthetic material that has been used by physicians for decades. Sculptra® Aesthetic is used to correct shallow to deep wrinkles and facial folds which are treated with the appropriate injection technique.
Sculptra® Aesthetic is suitable for: Deep folds between the nose and the mouth (nasolabial folds) also called smile lines, the lines framing your mouth (marionette lines) and chin wrinkles
Sculptra® Aesthetic gradually replaces lost collagen Collagen is a key structural component that keeps skin youthful looking and smooth. As you age, your body's collagen production decreases, and you may begin to see wrinkles. Sculptra® Aesthetic works to correct shallow to deep facial wrinkles and folds as it replaces lost collagen, which can help provide a refined, more youthful looking appearance.
Sculptra® Aesthetic works within the deep dermis Within the deep dermis, your skin's structure is reinforced as Sculptra® Aesthetic helps to replace lost collagen. This reinforced collagen structure provides a foundation that gradually restores the look of fullness of your shallow to deep facial wrinkles and folds* that has been depleted over time. The result? Sculptra® Aesthetic is different because it gradually and subtly corrects these facial wrinkles. The number of injection sessions and the number of injections per session vary from person to person. On average, three injection sessions are needed over a period of a few months. This can provide a refined, more youthful looking appearance that can last up to two years.
