Sculptra

SCULPTRA®

Sculptra® is a unique, FDA-approved injectable that works gradually to stimulate your skin’s natural collagen production. Instead of immediately filling lines like traditional dermal fillers, Sculptra® helps restore facial volume and smooth wrinkles over time for a subtle, natural-looking rejuvenation. Perfect for hollow cheeks, nasolabial folds, and areas with facial volume loss, Sculptra® gives your skin a refreshed, youthful appearance that develops gradually over several weeks.

PRE-TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS
• Avoid blood-thinning medications or supplements if possible (Aspirin, NSAIDs, Gingko Biloba, Garlic, Vitamin E, etc.) 3–7 days before your appointment, but check with your primary physician first.
• Avoid alcohol 24–48 hours prior to treatment to reduce bruising.
• Inform your provider of any history of cold sores or other skin conditions in the area to be treated. An antiviral may be prescribed if needed.
• Do not receive any other facial injectables, fillers, or energy-based treatments 2 weeks before your Sculptra session.
• Make sure the treatment area is clean and free of makeup on the day of your appointment.

POST-TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS
• Massage is key: Gently massage the treated area 5 minutes, 5 times per day for 5 days (or as instructed by your provider) to evenly distribute Sculptra.
• Avoid excessive heat and pressure: No facial massages, facials, or vigorous exercise for 24–48 hours post-treatment.
• Minimize bruising: Avoid alcohol for 24–48 hours after your appointment.
• Expect gradual results: Swelling or mild redness may occur for a few days. Final results typically appear over 4–6 weeks as collagen builds, and multiple sessions are often recommended for optimal outcomes.
• Protect your skin: Avoid direct sun exposure and use a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ daily.
• Follow-up visits: Return as recommended by your provider to complete your treatment series and achieve the best results.
