Traditional fillers (like hyaluronic acid) provide immediate volume, but Sculptra works gradually by stimulating collagen production. The results appear over weeks—and they last longer—often up to 2 years or more. It’s perfect for those who want subtle, natural-looking rejuvenation.
Sculptra results are not immediate. You’ll start noticing improvements around 4–6 weeks after your first treatment, with continued enhancement over the next few months as collagen builds.
Most patients benefit from 2 to 3 sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart. The exact number depends on your age, collagen levels, and treatment goals, which we assess during your consultation.
Sculptra results can last up to 24 months or longer, especially when maintained with annual touch-ups. Because it rebuilds collagen from within, the effects are both natural and long-lasting.
Yes. Sculptra is FDA-approved for facial aesthetic use and has been used safely for over a decade. When administered by trained professionals like our team at Modern Aesthetic Institute, the procedure is low-risk and well-tolerated.
Downtime is minimal. You may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising at injection sites, but most patients return to normal activities the same day. We recommend a brief facial massage routine post-treatment to ensure even distribution.
Sculptra is perfect for men and women experiencing age-related volume loss, sagging, or facial hollowness. It’s ideal for those looking for gradual, natural-looking results without surgery or overfilled effects.
