Sculptra aesthetic fillers are a form of derma filler that is used to smooth out deep wrinkles and restore lost volume through the natural aging process. It has been FDA-approved for use on the face to reverse the loss of volume and fullness, in addition to being used for filling in and smoothing out wrinkles. Sculptra is made of a biocompatible synthetic material called poly-L-lactic acid, or PLLA for short, as compared to a hyaluronic acid like some other fillers. Both PLLA and hyaluronic acid will break down and be absorbed by the body over time, so they are naturally processed and eliminated. Sculptra fillers have been shown to provide longer-lasting results than the hyaluronic acid fillers, due to the use of the poly-L-lactic acid. It not only adds volume to the face where needed, but it also stimulates collagen production deep within the dermis for the continued growth of collagen. While it is effective for treating many areas of the face, it is not recommended to be used as a lip filler or as a filler under the eyes.
