Sculptra is the first—and original—injectable collagen stimulator containing microparticles of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA-SCA), Sculptra helps restore facial skin structure, which may provide long-lasting skin improvement.

Sculptra is used to correct shallow-to-deep wrinkles and folds on the face. When it is administered with the appropriate injection technique from one of our trained providers, Sculptra is clinically approved for:

-Cheek wrinkles

-Deep folds between the nose and mouth (nasolabial folds), also called “smile lines”

-Lines framing the mouth (marionette lines)

-Chin wrinkles

On average, you will require 2 to 3 treatment sessions over the course of a few months. The number of injections at each session will vary based on the treatment plan determined by you and your provider.

Most clinical study participants saw results as soon as 1 month, with sustained results for up to 2 years. Your provider will work with you on a treatment plan that will be tailored to you. Typical treatment is 3 sessions spaced at least 3 to 4 weeks apart.

No. The main difference between Sculptra and Dermal Fillers is the production of collagen. Fillers do not illicit a natural response in your body to produce collagen, unlike Sculptra. Fillers are made with hyaluronic acid and designed to immediately fill in areas to improve volume.

Patients will need to massage the treated area to evenly distribute Sculptra. A good rule of thumb is 5-5-5: Massage the injected area for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days in a row.

There are several factors that figure into how much you’ll spend throughout your Sculptra treatment plan, including:

• Number of Sculptra vials used per session

• Number of treatment sessions needed

• Degree of necessary correction determined by you and your provider

• Current Discounts and special offers

Comparing the cost of facial rejuvenation options can be challenging, because so much depends on desired results, the amount of product your provider recommends, your response to treatment, and the amount of time results last.

A facial filler treatment that lasts 6 to 12 months may cost less up-front than one that lasts much longer, but it will generally require additional treatment sessions to maintain the effect for the same duration as one longer-lasting treatment. You may want to consider the total cost over time.

It’s a good idea to ask your provider about our FREE reward program at the time of your consultation. We highly recommend joining ASPIRE Galderma Rewards, a loyalty program that rewards you with special points, offers, and rewards for every Galderma aesthetic treatment you receive—not just Sculptra.
