What is Sculptra®?

It is an injectable that works beneath your skin to help rebuild its underlying structure (the collagen network). It works in the middle and lower face to promote natural collagen growth. In the long term, this helps firm, smooth, and tighten those areas of your face.

What areas does Sculptra® treat?

Sculptra® is FDA-approved for use in the bottom two-thirds of the face. So, it can be a good treatment option for:

Marionette lines: lines from the lip corners to the bottom of the chin
Nasolabial lines: lines from the edges of the nose to the outside of the lips (smile lines)
Cheek thinning or sagging
Jawline sagging or lack of definition

It's not for the lips or under the eyes; however, it might be used in other areas based on your needs and treatment goals.

How does Sculptra® work?

Sculptra® is classified as a dermal filler: A substance that gives you extra skin support from within the skin. Most dermal fillers work by adding a substance (hyaluronic acid) that stands in for your lost collagen.

Sculptra® is different because it works with your body to help you make your filler instead of just replacing collagen.

It’s made of poly-L-lactic acid, a collagen stimulator that triggers your body to start making its new collagen to bring you back to your younger collagen production levels.

Rejive Medical Aesthetics offers an array of nonsurgical treatments to rejuvenate your skin.

Natural Looking Results
Because there is a gradual collagen stimulation, results have a much more gradual, natural-looking feel.
Long-Lasting Effects
The results can last much longer than other dermal fillers. This allows for longer times between appointments after the initial treatment regimen. The typical initial treatment plan usually calls for 2-3 sessions spread out between 3-6 weeks, depending on each person.
Versatility of Apllications
Sculptra's properties allow it to be effective in various areas of the body. Some benefits can be;
- Volume restoration to recessed areas such as cheeks, temples, etc.
- The reduction of facial wrinkles and more.
- Noticeable improvement to the skins texture.
