Addresses the Underlying Cause of Facial Aging With Sculptra at Aurora Medical Spa

As we get older, it’s only natural for our faces to gradually lose their youthful, voluminous look. Weather exposure, sun damage, the effects of gravity, and the natural aging process can all lead to a slowdown in your body’s production of collagen and elastin, two compounds that keep your skin looking healthy and promote its ability to retain moisture. This can eventually lead to the development of fine lines and wrinkles in certain facial areas…all of which are handily addressed by Sculptra. This quick and easy injectable treatment is just one of many options we offer here at Aurora Medical Spa so you can show the world a more youthful look without taking too much time away from your active personal schedule.

What Is Sculptra?

Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable that helps improve your look by gradually replacing lost collagen—the most common protein in the body that is used to form a framework to support cells and tissue—for results that can last up to two years.

Sculptra helps restore the deep, underlying structure of the skin to diminish facial wrinkles and works with your body within the deep dermis to help revitalize collagen production and restore your skin’s inner structure and volume.

When you visit Aurora Medical Spa, you’ll begin your journey with a consultation that empowers you and your aesthetic expert to collaborate on the development of a personalized treatment plan, so you can look forward to your ideal results.

Building Your Bespoke Treatment Plan

When you arrive at Aurora Medical Spa, you’re not just showing up for a one-and-done appointment. We make it a point to form lasting relationships with our clients and will help you craft a treatment plan that sees you looking and feeling your very best for years to come. By combining an impressively board selection of non-surgical treatment options with a series of highly trained, expert providers, we’re uniquely positioned to help you make your personal cosmetic goals a reality in a comfortable and welcoming med spa environment.

During your initial consultation, your provider will also walk you through the details of the procedure, giving you a clear idea of what you can expect both during and after your Sculptra session. They will be sure to notify you of the treatment’s many benefits, along with any associated side effects, and will even help you explore complementary treatments that can help you enhance your results. You’ll also be able to ask any questions you might have, as it’s our goal to help you enjoy total peace of mind while you look forward to your results.

The Sculptra Experience

Preparation

Once all makeup or lotions are cleared away from your mouth, nose, and the remainder of your face, your provider will prep the injection site using antiseptic cream. You or your provider may choose to also apply a numbing cream to the site as well, to ensure your comfort.

Treatment

After your face is prepped, your provider will inject one or more syringes into their injection sites and slowly release the gel. Simple injections will take approximately 15 minutes, with more nuanced procedures lasting longer.

Procedure Time

Your Sculptra treatment will last for about one hour, at which point you’ll be free to return to your normal activities. This includes your pre- and post-injection consultations and the 15- to 30-minute procedure. More ambitious treatments take longer to complete.

Post-Injection

Once the product has settled, your provider will clean off the injection site and update you on your post-injection directions. Sculptra is typically administered in three sessions over a few months, with results that can last up to two years.

After Your Session

Possible side effects include redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site, but these fade quite quickly. You will begin to notice your results immediately, and many of our clients report that their results sometimes last for as long as two years.

How does Sculptra work?

As a poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) collagen stimulator, Sculptra is designed to restore the deep, underlying structure of your skin, diminishing facial wrinkles and creating a more youthfully voluminous look in the process.

By stimulating collagen production, Sculptra encourages your body to restore facial volume that has been lost to the aging process, rebuilding and reinforcing your skin’s structural foundation from the inside out.

Through a series of treatments—typically about three sessions over the course of a few months—Sculptra restores the structure and volume of your skin, providing youthful-looking results that can last for up to two years.

More about Sculptra:

  • Sculptra was first approved 1999 in Europe for filling small facial deficits. It is currently available in more than 40 countries globally.
  • Sculptra consists of something known as Poly- L-Lactic Acid, a synthetic polymer that has been used in human body since 1960 and as medical suture material since 1970.

What are the benefits of Sculptra?

Sculptra addresses one of the most common underlying causes of facial aging rather than simply smoothing over the symptoms. This FDA-approved injectable treatment gradually restores your body’s collagen production, addressing lost volume, smoothing over fine lines and wrinkles that have already formed, and preventing new lines and wrinkles from forming in the future.

Is the procedure painful?

You’ll experience a minor pinch when the product is injected. We use very fine-gauge needles and a topical numbing agent to ensure your comfort. Similarly, the lidocaine used on the syringe is intended to alleviate any pain.

How many treatments will I need?

Most clients find that they see their ideal results after about three sessions, spaced out over the course of a few months.
