Sculptra creates volume and better skin tone/texture
Sculptra is noted for:
the volume it stimulates with a very natural-appearing result.
But, Sculptra also enhances the tone and texture of the skin.
Once a desired result is achieved over a series of injection sessions, this is a product that gives a long-lasting natural result that can be maintained with periodic "booster" injections.
Results are dependent on several variables:
dilution
amount of Sculptra used
the precise placement of...

Sculptra Enhancement: Longer Lasting & Happy Patients
Sculptra is an injectable filler medication that works to replace the collagen in deeper layers of the skin and subcutaneous tissues. By replacing the lost collagen caused by aging it helps to correct shallow to deep facial wrinkles and folds. This gradual process occurs over weeks and months that follow. My patients feel this is one of the best benefits - gradually adding volume with more natural improvement. Due to the collagen produced, the results are exceptionally longer lasting...

Sculptra and it's benefits
Sculptra improves the appearance of the aging face by causing the patient's skin to make new collagen. This not only adds volume to areas such as the temples, cheek hollows, under eye and perioral areas, but can result in lifting of the skin especially in the jowl and nasolabial fold areas. Due to the new collagen formation, the surface of the skin can also take on a new healthy glow. All of these benefits combioned result in a more youthful appearance.

The benefits of facial enhancement using Sculptra
Sculptra is one of my favorite products for restoring a more youthful shape to the face. The older concept that “tighter is better” has been replaced by recognizing the importance of volume distribution as a defining characteristic of a more youthful face. Restoration of volume in the upper face can lessen or reverse the bottom-heavy, deflated appearance of the aging face. Sculptra is the only FDA-approved filler that will last up to twenty-five months. A recent study...

The benefits of Sculptra
Sculptra is a dermal stimulant for lack of better words. It turns on your skins own collagen production machinery to grow collagen and fill out the face. This obviously thickens the dermis also, which does wonders for the texture and appearance of the skin, in addition to the volumizing and rounding effects.

Sculptra Facial Enhancement
In addition to volume the other benefit is duration of effect. Sculptra lasts 2-3 x as long many other fillers.
