Ideal candidates for Sculptra treatment are adults who have experienced considerable volume loss or facial thinning due to collagen depletion. Collagen is a critical structural component of the skin, promoting firmness and resiliency. As we age, our bodies do not make the same amount of collagen and elastin as is common in our youth. Sculptra mitigates this natural decline by stimulating the body to continue making healthy new collagen in a specified area. One of the primary benefits of the Sculptra product is that the PLLA in this filler is inert. It does not pose a risk of allergic reaction. This makes Sculptra a good option for most adults who want to correct the signs of aging without surgery. Sculptra candidates are in good health, have a strong immune system, are free of skin conditions in the treatment area, and have a clear understanding of their expected outcome after consulting with their experienced provider. It is our desire to help every one of our patients achieve a treatment outcome that supports their self-confidence. Each patient process begins with a thorough consultation and evaluation of the skin to ensure we make the most appropriate treatment recommendations.
