Sculptra
A collagen biostimulator that rebuilds structural support gradually, from within.
What Is Sculptra
Sculptra is an injectable collagen biostimulator made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible and biodegradable synthetic polymer.
Unlike traditional dermal fillers that provide immediate volume, Sculptra stimulates your body's natural collagen production, gradually rebuilding structural support, restoring volume and improving skin quality from within.
Clinical studies have demonstrated increases in Type I collagen of up to 66.5% after three months, supporting improvements in skin thickness, firmness and elasticity.
How Does Sculptra Work?
PLLA particles initiate a controlled tissue response, stimulating fibroblasts, the cells responsible for collagen production, to generate new collagen. Over the following weeks and months, this process gradually restores lost structural support as the PLLA is naturally metabolised by the body.
Sculptra works in several phases.
Immediate volume
Temporary fullness from the reconstitution water, which subsides over several days.
Collagen stimulation
PLLA initiates a controlled tissue response, activating fibroblasts.
Neocollagenesis
New collagen forms progressively over the following weeks and months.
Gradual restoration
Newly formed collagen helps rebuild facial structure, improve firmness and restore natural-looking volume.
