Sculptra

Sculptra is a unique injectable treatment for improving the firmness of the skin and increasing volume. As more is understood about the ageing process it is clear that much of the problem relates to loss of volume of subcutaneous tissues in the temples, under the eyes, cheekbones, cheeks, chin and jawline. By giving a generalised increase in volume in these areas a rejuvenating and lifting effect can be achieved over a series of treatments.

Sculptra works by stimulating the collagen-producing cells under the skin, so a gradual but natural and long-lasting result is achieved. Typically the effects of a treatment follow after 6 to 8 weeks. After a course of treatment the benefits usually last for 18-24 months and somtimes longer.

Sculptra is suitable for any age group: modest treatment in a younger person can give a valuable boost to natural features, while for the older age group lifting of the cheekbones and jaw line can make a major difference.
