What is Sculptra?
Sculptra® is a type of dermal filler, which is a cosmetic procedure to smooth fine lines and deep wrinkles.
Sculptra is a gel-like substance made of poly-L-lactic acid. A healthcare provider will inject this filler underneath your skin where you want a fuller or smoother appearance. Poly-L-lactic acid is a collagen stimulator that absorbs into your body a few days after treatment to encourage your cells to produce more collagen. Collagen is a protein in your skin — as well as in your connective tissues, bones and cartilage — that provides structure, support and strength.
You might be interested in cosmetic dermal fillers using Sculptra if you want to:
- Reduce deep wrinkles.
- Elevate recessed areas of skin.
- Redefine or soften contours.
- Treat fat loss (lipoatrophy) caused by HIV.
