As we age, collagen production diminishes, leading to facial wrinkles, volume loss, and thinning skin. Sculptra treatments offer a natural-looking solution by stimulating the body’s natural collagen production, restoring skin thickness and smoothness over time. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, Sculptra injections work gradually, improving skin quality and volume with long-lasting results.
At Wellness Center of Cleveland, Dr. Ibrahim Elsheikh, a double board-certified physician, provides expert Sculptra treatments designed to enhance facial contours and restore youthful skin. Sculptra may be an ideal solution, if you're looking to soften deep wrinkles, restore facial volume, or improve skin texture.
Sculptra is an injectable cosmetic dermal filler that can be used to treat signs of aging on facial skin and restore facial volume lost due to aging or illness. Sculptra contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) which is a synthetic, biocompatible substance that is used for multiple medical applications aside from dermal injections. Sculptra stimulates collagen production in patients with a healthy immune system, allowing the tissue to volumize gradually, making it beneficial in the treatment of deep lines, creases, and folds to give a more youthful appearance.
A Sculptra treatment session is quick and minimally invasive:
Each treatment session takes about 30–45 minutes. Most patients need two to three sessions spaced a few weeks apart for optimal results.
Sculptra may be used for multiple applications in the treatment of a hollowed facial appearance, correcting facial volume loss and reducing lines and wrinkles. The most common treatment areas are:
Sculptra may also be used in treatments in other parts of the body, not just the face. These off-label areas include:
Sculptra is also a popular choice in the creation of more muscle definition and mass in the pectorals, biceps, triceps, thighs, and glutes.
With Sculptra, you can restore lost volume, soften deep wrinkles, and enhance your skin’s structure without frequent touch-ups. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, which provide instant but temporary results, Sculptra works beneath the surface, stimulating your body’s natural collagen production for a gradual, long-lasting transformation. Over time, your skin becomes firmer, more youthful, and more resilient, with results that can last up to two years.
There is no downtime after a Sculptra treatment. Most patients return to work and regular daily activities immediately, which makes it a convenient treatment to add to your day.
To achieve the best results, it is recommended that patients:
It is common and expected to not notice much of a difference immediately after treatment. This is because the water carrier in Sculptra may provide a filling effect, but this water is absorbed into the body within a few days of treatment. Patients report progressive visible results within a few weeks of each treatment session and may take up to 3 to 5 months to see a noticeable difference.
Unlike traditional dermal fillers, which provide instant volume, Sculptra encourages natural collagen production for a gradual, long-lasting effect. Patients typically see improvements in skin quality, volume, and facial wrinkles over three to six months, with results lasting up to two years. Maintenance treatments may be recommended every 12–24 months to sustain results.
