Sculptra®
Sculptra® is an FDA-approved biostimulatory injectable made of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), it is plant-based and biodegradable. Unlike traditional hyaluronic acid fillers that provide instant, short-term plumping, Sculptra® works beneath the surface of your skin, cells are recruited that trigger the production of your own collagen and elastin. Sculptra® progressively helps to replenish your own collagen and elastin, remolding the extracellular matrix and working across all 3 skin layers for a more rejuvenated appearance over time.
