SCULPTRA®
STIMULATE COLLAGEN TO TURN BACK THE CLOCK
Noticing a few wrinkles with a loss of facial volume? We have your solution in Sculptra® Aesthetic. As we age, we lose collagen, with studies showing a 25% decrease in collagen by age 45. With the loss in collagen, you can start to notice deeper wrinkles due to the loss of facial volume. With Sculptra® Aesthetic, we can lift cheeks, define the jawline and volumize hollows in the temples to restore your skin’s youthful appearance. Sculptra® Aesthetics is an ideal aging solution that utilizes Poly-L-Lactic Acid to help rebuild collagen and restore facial contours that can last up to 2 years. Our skin experts at SKIN FIVE provide a SKIN FIVE Face Assessment to discuss your options then prepare a treatment plan to get you looking wrinkle-free.

WHAT IS SCULPTRA®?
Sculptra is an injectable treatment that contains poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible substance that stimulates collagen production in the skin. While primarily known for its use in facial rejuvenation, Sculptra can also be utilized to reduce fat deposits on the body.
HOW DOES SCULPTRA® WORK?
Sculptra works through a process called collagen stimulation. The main active ingredient in Sculptra is poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible and biodegradable substance. When injected into the targeted areas of the body, such as the buttocks, thighs, abdomen, or arms, Sculptra triggers the body’s natural collagen production.
Collagen is a key protein that provides structural support to the skin and tissues. As Sculptra stimulates collagen synthesis, it helps to gradually replace lost volume and improve skin texture, resulting in a more contoured and youthful appearance. Over time, the injected Sculptra particles are absorbed by the body, leaving behind newly formed collagen that contributes to long-lasting improvements.
WHAT AREAS CAN SCULPTRA® TREAT?
Sculptra can effectively target and reduce fat in various areas of the body, including the buttocks, thighs, abdomen, and arms. It is particularly beneficial for individuals looking to achieve a more sculpted and contoured appearance without surgery.
