What is Sculptra® Collagen-Stimulating Injectable?

Sculptra® is an injectable treatment containing poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), which stimulates the body’s natural collagen production.

Unlike conventional dermal fillers, results develop gradually rather than providing immediate gel-like volume. Treatment can improve facial volume, firmness and structure while maintaining a natural-looking appearance.

Sculptra® is not suitable for every facial area and is not normally used for lip enhancement or individual line filling.

Good for?

Sculptra® may help improve:

  • Age-related facial volume loss
  • Hollowing in suitable facial areas
  • Reduced firmness and structure
  • Loss of facial contour definition
  • Selected facial lines and folds
  • Overall facial rejuvenation


What happens during treatment?

Following consultation and facial assessment, Sculptra® is injected into selected areas using a needle or cannula.

You may feel brief pinching, pressure or stinging. The treated area may be massaged, and personalised aftercare instructions will be provided.

Any immediate fullness is mainly caused by fluid and temporary swelling. Collagen-stimulating results develop gradually.
