How Long Does Sculptra Last? (And Other Common Questions)

If you’re dissatisfied with the lines and wrinkles on your face, you might consider talking to a medical spa provider about a dermal filler injection. One of your options is Sculptra, which contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). This is a biocompatible synthetic substance with a superior safety profile and a track record of excellent results.

How does Sculptra work?

Sculptra works like a liquid facelift. When injected into areas affected by lines, wrinkles, or loss of facial volume, Sculptra stimulates the body’s natural production of collagen. This lifts and plumps the skin, which restores a youthful, rejuvenated appearance.

How long does Sculptra last?

One of the many reasons why patients love Sculptra is the longevity of its results. Although the results can vary slightly from one person to the next, patients enjoy the results for up to two years on average. At that time, you may choose to receive additional Sculptra injections.

How many treatments will I need?

It all depends on your aesthetic goals and preferences. Most people do begin to see positive results after just one treatment. However, patients need an average of three injections to achieve their desired results. These treatments are staggered at different appointments over a period of three to four months.

Can Sculptra be used on other parts of the body?

Sculptra is most commonly used to restore facial volume. However, it can indeed be used on other parts of the body to address other common cosmetic concerns. For example, many patients have gotten great results by using Scupltra to reduce the appearance of cellulite dimples on the buttocks. You can even use Sculptra for nonsurgical buttock augmentation and buttock lift. The Sculptra butt lift restores the natural plumpness of the buttocks, while also enhancing the curve and shape.
