Sculptra to Enhance Face and Boost Collagen

Sculptra works by stimulating your body's own ability to restore collagen as well as enhance the facial area being treated, such as the chin. The time that Sculptra is effective can be up to two years.

Sculptra provide a lift?

Sculptra is not injected directly into these wrinkle lines and folds, but rather into multiple areas of the face to treat the volume loss that leads to their appearance. This leads to the subtle and natural-looking results that are so often desired. Patients don’t want... more

Sculptra: The Liquid Facelift

Sculptra is a product that is injected into areas where patients have lost volume, including bone, fat, and collagen. It causes your body to produce more collagen, thereby "volumizing" areas. It is typically injected in areas such as the temples, cheeks, and many other areas. We know that sagging skin and wrinkles are primarily the result of volume loss as we age; therefore, Sculptra helps to regain what has been lost. When volume is added to the face, your... more

Does Sculptra Help Reduce Sagging Skin Around the Chin?

Without an examination or a photograph it is impossible to answer your question. Sculptra is a filler and fillers do NOT shrink nor tighten sagging skin. You will get MUCH better shrinking and lifting from Broad Band Light (BBL) devices such as Sciton's SkinTyte or from fractionated laser devices such as Sciton's Joule laser (ProFractional). These devices WILL shrink and lift skin. Placing Sculptra, Radiesse and Restylane / Perlane Juvederm in the cheeks WILL fill them resulting... more
