Sculptra Treatment Esher, Surrey

Sculptra treatment is a cosmetic procedure designed to improve the appearance of facial volume and reduce the signs of aging. It involves the injection of Sculptra, a biodegradable and biocompatible synthetic material composed of poly-L-lactic acid, into specific areas of the face.

The treatment works by stimulating the body’s natural collagen production. As we age, our skin gradually loses collagen, leading to wrinkles, fine lines, and facial sagging. Sculptra helps address this issue by promoting the growth of new collagen fibers in the targeted areas, leading to increased skin thickness and improved facial volume.

Unlike some other dermal fillers, Sculptra’s effects are not immediate. The results develop gradually over several weeks as the body produces new collagen. The treatment usually requires multiple sessions, spaced several weeks apart, to achieve the desired outcome.

Sculptra treatment can be beneficial for various cosmetic concerns, including:

1. Treating wrinkles and fine lines: Sculptra can help reduce the appearance of nasolabial folds (smile lines), marionette lines (lines from the corners of the mouth to the chin), and other facial wrinkles.
2. Restoring facial volume: It can add volume to sunken cheeks and temples, restoring a more youthful and plump appearance.
3. Addressing hollow areas: Sculptra can be used to fill in areas with facial fat loss, commonly seen in individuals with HIV-related lipodystrophy.
4. Long-lasting results: The effects of Sculptra can last up to two years, making it a durable solution for facial rejuvenation.
