Introduction
Sculptra offers more of a long-lasting and gradual approach to replacing collagen lost naturally with aging. Generally, patients are injected with Sculptra three times over a few months, with the effects possibly lasting more than two years.
“Came for Sculptra injections. Great experience! Dr. Schlesinger is very laid back, at the same time being quite professional. I felt comfortable with him and work and his staff who are also really helpful, professional and friendly. Nice environment – felt welcome and well cared for. I highly recommend him!”
—Actual patient of Dr. Schlesinger.
Sculptra works to promote the natural production of collagen in your face, helping your body reduce the appearance of fat loss in your face. Sculptra is FDA-approved and is used for applications ranging from stitches to implants. Over time, Sculptra will be absorbed by the body and is therefore completely safe. The number of treatments will vary from patient to patient but generally, three to six treatments are required.
Designed to best benefit patients who experienced a significant fat loss, Sculptra is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that can restore a youthful appearance to a patient’s face. The injections may result in slight swelling, but patients should be able to return to daily activities immediately after treatment. Once completed, Sculptra’s benefits can last for two years, but as always, each patient is different and should expect their results to vary depending on their personal needs and treatment.
Butt Lift
Due to its collagen-producing qualities, Sculptra is also ideal for non-surgical butt lifts. Sculptra not only increases volume in the buttocks but also gives the skin a more youthful appearance with gradually improving results to skin firmness and contour. These “evolving” results are due to the unique collagen framework that Sculptra’s PLLA microparticles build within your skin to support future collagen growth.
Non-surgical butt lifts are non-invasive, don’t use general anesthesia, and require little to no downtime. Because Sculptra is injected instead of fat, a non-surgical butt lift doesn’t carry the risks that other surgeries, like Brazilian butt lifts, have become known for. And unlike recovery from Brazilian butt lift surgery, you can be back at the gym within just a few days after your non-surgical butt lift.
