sculptra

Sculptra works differently from traditional fillers. It  is a unique collagen replenishing treatment that helps to gradually and  subtly reduce lines, wrinkles and folds. Sculptra’s main ingredient,  poly-L-lactic acid, works from deep within the skin’s layers to correct  the underlying problem that causes the line or wrinkle. Sculptra helps  to restore lost volume by replenishing your own facial collagen, the  substance your body produces to give your skin a firm and youthful  appearance, giving you a fuller, more natural look.

Sculptra  is a long lasting, clinically proven treatment than can smooth deep  lines and wrinkles and restore facial volume lost to the body’s natural  ageing process.

The improvement is gradual,  long-lasting and gives you an entirely natural-looking fuller face.  Sculptra is an injectable volumising treatment that stimulates the  build-up of the body’s own collagen to smooth out lines and wrinkles and  restore lost facial volume to give you a fuller, younger-looking face.  It also helps to restore lost facial volume to give you a fuller,  younger-looking face. The enhancement is long lasting and looks  completely natural.

Our aesthetics nurse, Ros Bown, will carefully listen to your concerns  and discuss with you the best course of treatment to attain your desired  goals. Each stage of the process will be fully explained to you during  this initial consultation and throughout your treatment plan. 

Initially, your face is thoroughly cleansed. A cream is then applied to  numb the skin. Photos will be taken of your face and you will be  examined to decide which areas need treatment. The treatment itself will  take around 30 minutes, and either a cannula, needle or both will be  used depending on your needs. Your face will be then be massaged to  ensure the product is evenly distributed. 

Massage should be performed for 5 minutes, 5 times a day  over the first 5 days. After the first 5 days, massage twice daily for 5  minutes for the following 6 weeks.

Massage is  especially important after Sculptra treatment as it ensures the even  distribution of the product in the tissue and ensures collagen  production occurs evenly.

After treatment, you  should notice gradual results over the next several weeks. It takes  approximately six weeks to see the effects and these continue to develop  for up to a year after treatment.
