As we age, our bodies start to produce less collagen. In fact, starting in our 20s we lose about 1% each year! If you’re in your 40s and starting to consider fillers or Botox, it’s probably because you have about 20-25% less collagen contributing to fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin. The good news is that you don’t have to let nature take its course! Modern dermal fillers offer incredible results, plumping out moderate to severe lines and adding back lost volume to the face. But Sculptra takes it to the next level. This unique facial injection actually stimulates your body to start producing more collagen. In other words, you get the immediate benefits of a filler plus long-lasting age-rewinding results.
What Is Sculptra?
Sculptra is a one-of-a-kind filler made from poly-L lactic acid (PLLA). Unlike traditional fillers that consist of primarily hyaluronic acid, the PLLA in Sculptra actually stimulates collagen production. As a result, you get the plumping power of a filler right away while your skin elasticity improves over time.
Rewind Time With A Sculptra Facial Injection
Collagen plays a critical role in how your skin ages. This protein facilitates the production of elastin and hyaluronic acid, which hydrate the skin and support the shape over the bones in the face. The appearance of aging is largely due to the loss of structural support from declining collagen. You may notice harsher angles, a droopy jawline, and more of a “hollowing” in the cheeks and under the eyes. And of course, the wrinkles. Because of Sculptra’s unique collagen-boosting properties, it not only adds much-needed volume to the face, it also works to help your body keep those results long-term. That’s why results from Sculptra injections can last up to 2 years!
