Over time your skin loses its full firm youthful appearance, this is a result of the natural ageing process. Your skin becomes thinner and can sag, causing wrinkles and deep lines to appear. Equally important fat tissue in the face which maintains the fullness of the face is also lost, causing the face to look thin, drawn, narrow and even haggard and certainly making the face look older than it should and older than how you feel.
Sculptra is an injectable treatment that works by stimulating the build up of the body's own collagen to smooth out lines and wrinkles, but more importantly its volumising effect to the face restores the lost facial volume resulting in a younger looking face. The overall effect is a youthful appearance with gradual, natural looking results.
Sculptra is suitable for a number of areas around the face
Scupltra is a discreet approach which allows a gradual effect to occur. Usually two or three treatments are required, 4-6 weeks apart to attain the effect you require. Natural looking effects will become noticeable after approximately 6 weeks.
Clinical studies have shown that the results of Scupltra can last for more than three years.
It is well tolerated with over 17,000 treatments in the UK since 2005, 150,000 worldwide since 1999. The main constituent of Scupltra has been used in medicine for over 10 years and is biocompatible and biodegradable.
No allergy testing is required prior to treatment.
