Sculptra Injections in Costa Mesa
Sculptra is a collagen stimulation injection that helps your skin recover youth, beauty, and elasticity.
How Does Sculptra Work?
Sculptra injections are made of poly-L-lactic acid. This ingredient stimulates your body’s natural collagen production process, which is essential for youthful, tight skin.
Collagen is responsible for keeping your skin firm and youthful, but production starts to decrease in your 20s. This causes loss of skin structure and tightness as your skin cells lose their main framework.
Poly-L-lactic acid is a biostimulator. This means it stimulates natural processes within your tissues, such as collagen production. Your body then does the rest of the work on its own, with no need for surgical or invasive procedures.
If you want to keep the elasticity in your skin for as long as possible, Sculptra injections are just what you need.
FDA-Approved Cosmetic Enhancements
The FDA has approved Sculptra for a few different uses in the cosmetic industry. Sculptra is approved for treating various facial wrinkles and areas of volume loss.
Since Sculptra has made some changes to the formula, the FDA has changed the labeling on this product. Patient comfort is at the forefront of what Nurse Christine does, which is why she now offers premium Sculptra treatments.
There is now lidocaine and other beneficial agents in Sculptra injections to increase patient comfort and treatment possibilities.
What Areas Can We Treat with Sculptra Injections?
Sculptra is mostly used for facial skin rejuvenation and cosmetic enhancements. Problems like deep facial folds, wrinkles, and creases will start to fade as Sculptra stimulates long-term collagen production.
Your smile lines, marionette lines (around your mouth), and nasolabial folds all benefit from Sculptra injections. The lower half of your face is prone to aging, making this the perfect biostimulator for skin enhancements.
Sculptra Treatment Expectations
Sculptra has a gradual effect, which means that you may not see full results right away, but they will come with time. Your body needs time to create enough collagen to see results.
The results are well worth the wait, though. Sculptra provides long-term collagen production within your own tissues, so you can enjoy the benefits for up to two years, and the restored volume can be maintained every few years with follow-up injections.
Improve Facial Features with Sculptra
Sculptra is the only FDA-approved poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) facial injectable treatment that works with your body to help stimulate natural collagen growth. This helps to restore your skin's facial volume and the look of fullness to wrinkles over time.
