Refresh Your Look with Sculptra at Aurora Medical Spa in Des Peres

As we age, our skin loses its youthful volume and elasticity, leading to the formation of fine lines and wrinkles. Environmental exposure, sun damage, gravity, and the natural aging process contribute to decreased collagen and elastin production. Sculptra offers a solution by addressing these issues at their source, providing long-lasting rejuvenation. At Aurora MedSpa, we offer Sculptra in Des Peres and a range of other treatments to help you achieve a refreshed and youthful appearance with minimal downtime.

What Is Sculptra?

Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable designed to gradually replace lost collagen, the most abundant protein in the body that supports skin structure and volume. This treatment works by restoring the deep, underlying layers of the skin, effectively reducing wrinkles and enhancing volume, with results that can last up to two years.

At our Des Peres med spa, your journey with Sculptra begins with a comprehensive consultation. During this initial meeting, you and your aesthetic expert will create a customized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and goals, ensuring optimal results.

The Sculptra Treatment Process

Preparation

Your provider will start by removing any makeup or lotions from your face. The injection site will be prepared with antiseptic cream, and a numbing cream may be applied to ensure your comfort.

Treatment

Your provider will inject Sculptra into specific areas of your face, releasing the gel slowly. Simple procedures typically take around 15 minutes, while more detailed treatments may take longer.

Procedure Time

A typical Sculptra session lasts about an hour which includes pre- and post-injection consultations and the treatment itself. More extensive treatments may require additional time.

Post-Injection

After the procedure, your provider will clean the injection site and provide post-treatment care instructions. Sculptra in Des Peres is generally administered in a series of three sessions over a few months, with results that can last up to two years.

After Your Session

Common side effects include redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site, but these usually subside quickly. You’ll notice immediate improvements and many clients report results that last for up to two years.

How does Sculptra work?

Sculptra is a poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) collagen stimulator that restores the deep, underlying structure of the skin, reducing wrinkles and adding volume. By promoting collagen production, Sculptra helps the body restore facial volume lost to aging, strengthening the skin’s foundation from the inside out. Typically, about three sessions over a few months are required to achieve long-lasting results.

What are the benefits of Sculptra?

Sculptra addresses the root cause of facial aging, gradually restoring collagen production and improving volume, fine lines, and wrinkles. This FDA-approved treatment not only smooths existing wrinkles but also helps prevent new ones from forming.

Is the procedure painful?

You may feel a minor pinch during the injection. We use fine-gauge needles and a topical numbing agent to minimize discomfort. The lidocaine in the syringe also helps alleviate any pain.

Most clients achieve their desired results after about three sessions spaced over a few months.
