Sculptra® in Minneapolis- St. Paul

Most patients start to see noticeable results beginning after about two months. This is because it takes about 4-6 weeks for your body to begin creating its own collagen.

After your Sculptra treatment, avoid vigorous exercise, alcoholic beverages, and excessive sun exposure for 24-48 hours.

Sculptra can improve the look of nasolabial folds, marionette lines, chin wrinkles, and other signs of facial aging.

Adults 18 years and older who wish to address signs of facial aging can often benefit from Sculptra.

Those with a history of severe allergies or keloid scarring, or those who are pregnant or nursing should not receive this treatment.

There is no downtime needed after Sculptra treatments. Patients may experience mild swelling, redness, tenderness, and bruising at the injection site, which will resolve with time.

Sculptra is an injectable filler containing poly-L-lactic acid, which stimulates collagen production in the skin. It can be used to treat a number of signs of aging such as lines, wrinkles, creases, and folds on the face.

During a Sculptra treatment, a topical numbing cream will first be applied to the skin. Then, a fine needle will be used to inject the Sculptra into the appropriate areas.

Results appear gradually over time and they can last up to two years.

People who have a history of severe allergies or have seen keloid or hypertrophic scarring in the past are not the best candidates for Sculptra injections.

Sculptra is often used to reduce the appearance of smile lines, chin wrinkles, temples, and marionette lines. It can be used in most places on the face where you see signs of aging. Sculptra helps create a collagen framework that restores structure and lost facial volume.
