Revitalize Skin By Boosting Natural Collagen
Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable that gradually restores facial volume and smooths wrinkles by stimulating your natural collagen production.

It effectively addresses concerns such as hollow cheeks, deep folds, and facial laxity. At Clear Skin Dermatology, our board-certified providers customize each treatment plan to deliver natural-looking, long-lasting results that enhance confidence and facial harmony.
Sculptra Treats:

Your Sculptra Experience
Personalized Consultation:
Your Sculptra journey at Clear Skin Dermatology begins with a personalized consultation, during which your provider evaluates your goals, discusses your history, and creates a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. Keep in mind that this specific injectable is not performed on the same day as the consultation because the injector must prepare ahead of time and reconstitute it. So plan for this in your scheduling.
Day of Procedure:
During the procedure, Sculptra is carefully injected into targeted areas such as the cheeks, temples, or folds using fine needles or cannulas. The treatment is generally well tolerated, and a topical anesthetic may be applied for added comfort.
After your session, you may notice mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites, which typically resolve within a few days. Recovery is minimal, allowing you to return to your daily routine almost immediately. To maximize results, your provider may recommend a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart. Over time, you’ll see gradual improvements as your skin naturally rebuilds collagen, restoring volume and enhancing your facial harmony.
Benefits of Sculptra:
- Stimulates natural collagen production
- Provides gradual, natural-looking improvements
- Delivers long-lasting results, often up to two years or more
- Restores youthful facial volume and contours
- Enhances skin texture, firmness, and elasticity
- Little to no downtime after treatment
Sculptra FAQs
How does Sculptra work?
Sculptra is made of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible material that has been safely used in medical applications for decades. Once injected beneath the skin, Sculptra particles stimulate fibroblasts, which are the cells responsible for producing collagen. This triggers the body’s healing response, which gradually increases collagen production and strengthens the skin’s structural framework. Unlike fillers that simply add volume, Sculptra works at a deeper level to produce results that develop naturally.
How many treatments will I need?
Most patients require a series of two to three treatments, spaced several weeks apart, to achieve optimal results. The exact number depends on your individual goals, age, and degree of volume loss. Your provider will customize a treatment plan during your consultation.
When will I see results from Sculptra?
You may notice some initial volume right after your injections, but this typically fades within a few days as the water in the solution is absorbed. The true results appear gradually as your body produces more collagen, usually within 6 to 12 weeks.
Are there any side effects with Sculptra?
Like any injectable, Sculptra can cause mild swelling, redness, bruising, or tenderness at the injection sites. These effects are temporary and resolve within a few days. Rarely, small nodules may develop under the skin, but an experienced provider helps minimize these risks.
How long do the results of Sculptra last?
Sculptra results are long-lasting because the treatment works by rebuilding your collagen network. Most patients enjoy the benefits for two years or longer, making it one of the most durable options in aesthetic medicine. Periodic maintenance can help extend the results.
