Sculptra will be injected into the target area during the procedure to aid collagen formation. Your skin will be cleansed before the procedure begins, and your specialist will mark the treatment area while you're standing up. You can opt to use a local or topical anesthetic during the treatment, but it's not completely necessary as the Sculptra injections use a tiny needle.
Depending on your custom treatment plan, the process may take anything from 30 minutes to an hour. The actual procedure is quite simple, and most will attest to the fact that it's not painful. A short massage treatment will follow the injections to ensure that the Sculptra has an equal dispersion.
