Sculptra® gives you extra skin support from within the skin
Collagen — the protein that provides skin support — fades with age, leading to wrinkles and sagging. With Sculptra® treatments, we can help you restore your skin’s underlying support framework to help you look younger and more refreshed for longer.
What is Sculptra®
Sculptra® is an injectable that works beneath your skin to help rebuild its underlying structure (the collagen network). It works in the middle and lower face to promote natural collagen growth. In the long term, this helps firm, smooth, and tighten those areas of your face.

How does Sculptra® work?
Sculptra® is classified as a dermal filler, a substance that gives you extra skin support from within the skin. Most dermal fillers work by adding a substance (hyaluronic acid) that replaces your lost collagen.
Sculptra® is different because it actually works with your body to help you make your own filler instead of just replacing collagen.
It’s made of poly-L-lactic acid, a collagen stimulator that triggers your body to start making its own new collagen to bring you back to your younger collagen production levels.

Sculptra® FAQ's
You lose about 1-1.5% of your body’s collagen annually in adulthood. The results of this are often noticeable by your 30s and 40s in the form of fine lines, wrinkles, skin sagging, and a general loss of facial fullness.
If you’re starting to experience these changes and don’t like how they look, Sculptra could be a good treatment option to consider.
