Sculptra Clinton, Utah
An important protein found in connective tissue, collagen is vital to keep the skin smooth and firm. As you age, collagen production decreases, causing you to see wrinkles and laxity. Age also causes you to lose fat beneath the skin, resulting in hollowed cheeks and depressions in the face.
Sculptra stimulates your skin to trigger collagen, but it does take time. Sculptra corrects minimal to deep facial wrinkles and folds and results in firmer and younger-looking skin. Sculptra is a collagen stimulator and does not provide filling action. The tissue absorbs Sculptra about two years after treatment, but the new collagen layers are left behind and may last for several more years. Therefore, Sculptra does require a series of treatments to achieve your younger-looking skin goals.
Sculptra is composed of poly-L-lactic acid, a biodegradable molecule. It takes a minimum of three treatment sessions over several months. The number of injections needed and the time between sessions varies from person to person, and the actual injection time is about 30 minutes.
