Sculptra is a collagen-stimulating injectable treatment designed to restore facial volume, improve skin texture, and enhance contours over time. Unlike traditional dermal fillers that provide immediate results, Sculptra works gradually by stimulating the body's natural collagen production, leading to a more youthful and natural appearance. Common treatment areas include the temples, mid-face, nasolabial folds, and jawline.
By addressing these regions, Sculptra effectively reduces signs of aging, such as volume loss and skin laxity, resulting in a refreshed and harmonious facial aesthetic.
Sculptra results in deep hydration and improves skin laxity and texture.

Anti Wrinkle Injections
Botulinum toxin is a neurotoxin that temporarily paralyzes muscles, preventing the formation of wrinkles or softening existing ones. It is most commonly used to treat dynamic wrinkles, which are caused by muscle movements, such as forehead lines, crow's feet, and frown lines between the eyebrows. The effects of anti wrinkle injections are temporary, typically lasting 3 months. It does not stimulate collagen production or improve skin quality.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are substances, typically made from hyaluronic acid, that are injected beneath the skin's surface to add volume and fullness. They are used to enhance facial features such as lips, cheeks, and jawline. The results from fillers are immediate and can last from 6 months to 2 years, depending on the type of filler used and the area treated. Unlike Sculptra, fillers provide volume directly into the specific area but do not stimulating the body to produce its own collagen.
Skin Boosters
Skin boosters are injectable treatments that aim to improve skin hydration, elasticity, and texture. They are usually made from hyaluronic acid, polynucleotides or mesotherapy cocktails. They are injected in micro-quantities to hydrate the skin deeply and improve its overall quality rather than to add volume or fill wrinkles. Skin boosters can rejuvenate the skin, making it appear more radiant and youthful. The results are subtler compared to fillers and Botox and are aimed at improving skin condition rather than changing facial contours. Each treatment has its ideal use case, depending on the patient's skin condition, desired outcome, and preference for maintenance. Consulting with a qualified aesthetic professional.
After receiving Sculptra injections, it is essential to follow the 5-5-5 rule: massage the treated areas for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days. This helps distribute the product evenly and prevents the formation of lumps.
The procedure involves a series of injections into the targeted areas. Each session lasts about 30 to 60 minutes. Patients may experience slight discomfort, but a topical anaesthetic can be applied to minimise pain. Mild swelling or bruising may occur post-treatment, but these effects typically subside within a few days.
Avoid taking blood-thinning medications like aspirin or ibuprofen for a few days before the treatment, and refrain from alcohol 24 hours prior. It's also recommended to schedule your treatment at least two weeks before any major events to allow any potential side effects to subside.
