Which is more effective at building new collagen Sculptra or Microneedling?

amysmith5053
Hi! I am in my early thirties and am starting to notice signs of aging. I am trying to put off fillers for as long as possible so I was researching Microneedling for collagen induction. That said, I would be interested in Sculptra if it is more efficient at creating new collagen. In that case, it feels more like a treatment than a bandaid like other fillers if that makes sense. But if the microneedling is as effective then I may forgo the needle for now. Any advice is greatly appreciated!!
