Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable biostimulator made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) that gradually restores facial volume by stimulating your body’s natural collagen production.
Sculptra is used to get rid of wrinkles and folds on the face. It is a great way to have gradual change to restore youthful volume and texture. It has been approved by doctors to treat loss of volume, especially in the cheeks, jawline, temples, and wrinkles on the chin.
Sculptra can also be used to perform non-surgical butt lifts (BBLs). For BBLs, Sculptra is injected into the buttocks to add more shape and volume. Sculptra in the buttocks is a great way to stimulate collagen reproduction and to enhance a patient’s natural curves. Using Sculptra allows the patient to achieve a rounder fuller look without having to go through an invasive surgery.
Wrinkles on the face can be lessened by injecting Sculptra into the skin. It contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), which stimulates your body’s natural collagen production to help reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and folds. As new collagen develops, the skin gradually becomes smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking.

For Sculptra BBL treatments:
You can expect some swelling and bruising at the injection site. Other common side effects include:
Your WIFH practitioner will review potential risks, side effects, and aftercare instructions before treatment to help ensure a safe, comfortable experience.
There are no special instructions to prepare for Sculptra treatment. However, to reduce the risk of bleeding, you may want to stop taking NSAIDs such as aspirin and ibuprofen a few days before treatment.
Arnica supplements can be taken a week prior to your Sculptra treatment date to help with post injection bruising. This will help speed up the fading of bruising, if any.
On the day of your first Sculptra treatment, one of our experts will map the injection sites on the skin and will clean the area where the injections will be given.
A local anesthetic may be used to ease any pain, and then your clinician will make several small injections.
Most people can get Sculptra injections and go back to their normal lives right away. Most side effects, like swelling and bruises, are mild and go away in a few days.
Following treatment, post care will involve a massage of the area for five minutes, five times a day for five days.
There will be an initial volume increase that is caused by the sterile water used to suspend the Sculptra particles for injection. During the first day or two following the treatment, your body will naturally absorb this water.
The treatment area should be lightly massaged by the patient for about 5 days after treatment to ensure the Sculptra particles are distributed evenly throughout the buttocks to help deliver the fullest appearance.
Results will appear gradually, this process does take time. We will monitor your progress at each of your Sculptra sessions. Avoid strenuous exercise for at least 2 days in order to reduce swelling and bruising. You may resume other daily activities/routines immediately after treatment.

We believe consultations are very important when you are considering any treatment. Our consultations give us the opportunity to get to know you and understand exactly what you are looking to achieve in your appearance. At your consultation you will meet with one of our vary experienced clinicians who will develop a treatment plan based on your aesthetic needs.
Results are gradual, and it may take a few weeks to see the full effects of Sculptra. Results last up to two years.
These injections are an FDA-approved procedure and are perfectly safe when overseen by a doctor – even over years of use.
Due to the use of needles in sensitive areas, a topical anesthetic may be applied to help with any discomfort.
Yes, Sculptra is considered a dermal filler, but it works differently than traditional hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers. Instead of providing immediate volume, Sculptra is a biostimulator made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) that gradually stimulates your body’s natural collagen production. As new collagen develops over the following months, Sculptra helps restore facial volume, improve skin texture, and soften wrinkles and folds with subtle, natural-looking results that can last up to two years.
Sculptra works gradually because it relies on your body’s natural collagen-building process. While some patients notice an early improvement from the water used to prepare the product, this temporary fullness fades within a few days. As collagen production increases, you’ll begin to see more noticeable results over the following weeks, with full results typically developing within 3-6 months after completing your treatment series. Your WIFH practitioner will recommend the appropriate number of sessions based on your goals, with most patients receiving 2-3 treatments spaced several weeks apart.
