About Sculptra
Time depletes volume from the skin and leaves in its wake hollow temples, sunken cheeks and diminished prominence under the eyes. Among all of the products currently available only Sculptra stimulates significant production of collagen. Since natural collagen lasts much longer than most "temporary" fillers such as Juvederm and Restylane, the effects of Sculptra may last up to two years or more.
Not unexpectedly the added volume from Sculptra in the upper face lifts and improves the sagging chin and folds around the nose and mouth. This translates to postponement or eliminating the need for facial cosmetic surgery. Sculptra may be thought of as a mini-lift. Of course depending on your precise needs, Sculptra may be combined with Botox or one of the traditional fillers.

Process
Unlike fillers such as Juvederm, Restylane and Belotero which work instantly but only last 6-12 months, Sculptra encourages youthful collagen formation but requires several months for full correction.
Typically three monthly sessions of painless injections provide welcome improvement with the severity of volume loss dictating the precise amount of material appropriate for a given individual.

Sculptra FAQs
Unlike the immediate effects of most fillers, Sculptra works by building collagen tissue which requires several months to become apparent.
For most people at least 3-5 treatment sessions are necessary with 4-8 weeks between appointments.
Once the tissue appears rejuvenated, the newly produced collagen generally lasts at least 2 years, however more sessions may be necessary to keep up with further loss from the aging process.
