If you started noticing your cheeks look flatter, jawline softer, or lines around the the mouth deepening, keep on reading.
These changes happen as collagen naturally declines with age.
Unlike traditional fillers that provide instant volume, Sculptra works differently because it stimulates your skin to build its own collagen over time. This means your results appear gradually, creating a refreshed look that never seems “done” or overfilled.
Whether you’re hoping to restore youthful contours, soften wrinkles, or improve skin firmness, Sculptra is the most natural-looking way to rejuvenate your appearance for up to 2 years or more.
You might be a great candidate if you’re noticing:
Gradual loss of cheek volume or fullness
Smile lines or marionette folds that deepen over time
A hollow, tired look that doesn’t match your energy
Thinning skin and reduced firmness
Early sagging along the jawline
How does Sculptra work?
Sculptra is an injectable treatment made with poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra works gradually by stimulating your skin to produce more collagen. Over several weeks, this renewed collagen improves facial volume, smooths wrinkles, and enhances skin firmness for natural-looking rejuvenation.
Why Choose Sculptra?
Unlike Radiesse, which provides immediate lift, Sculptra delivers a discreet transformation that develops slowly so friends will notice you look refreshed without pinpointing exactly why.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Sculptra work?
Sculptra is an injectable treatment made with poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra works gradually by stimulating your skin to produce more collagen. Over several weeks, this renewed collagen improves facial volume, smooths wrinkles, and enhances skin firmness for natural-looking rejuvenation.
Does Sculptra lift the face?
Yes—Sculptra gradually restores lost volume in areas like the cheeks, jawline, and temples, which can subtly lift and firm sagging skin over time. While not a surgical facelift, many patients love the natural-looking lift Sculptra provides.
Does Sculptra hurt?
Most patients say the injections feel like a mild pinch or stinging sensation. To keep you comfortable, we use topical numbing cream and mix Sculptra with lidocaine, a local anesthetic. Some swelling or tenderness can occur afterward but typically resolves in a few days.
What happens if I stop using Sculptra?
Your skin will slowly return to its natural aging process. While your collagen boost may gradually decline, there’s no accelerated volume loss when you stop treatment.
How long do Sculptra results last?
Sculptra results typically last up to 2 years or longer. Many patients choose a maintenance session every 12–18 months to help sustain their results.
Is Sculptra worth the investment?
For many, Sculptra is worth it because of its long-lasting, gradual improvements and collagen-building benefits. Although the initial cost can be higher than other fillers, the extended duration often makes it more cost-effective over time.
Are there any side effects or risks?
Temporary swelling, bruising, or tenderness are common. Less frequently, small nodules can develop under the skin. These often improve with massage but, in rare cases, may require further treatment. Choosing an experienced injector is the best way to minimize risk.
What is the difference between Sculptra and other fillers?
Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers (like Juvederm), which add volume instantly, Sculptra works gradually by stimulating your own collagen production, leading to longer-lasting, more subtle improvements in skin quality and volume.
How many treatments will I need?
Most people need a series of 3 treatment sessions spaced about 4–6 weeks apart to achieve optimal collagen stimulation and volume restoration. Your exact plan will depend on your goals and how much volume has been lost.
How much does Sculptra cost?
Pricing can vary depending on the number of vials and sessions. On average, each vial is $999.00, and most clients need 2–4 vials per session. During your consultation, we’ll create a clear, personalized estimate based on your goals.
Can Sculptra be used under the eyes or in the lips?
No—Sculptra isn’t recommended for areas of high movement or thinner skin, like the lips or tear troughs, because it can lead to lumps or unevenness. Hyaluronic acid fillers are often better suited for these areas.
Can Sculptra be combined with other treatments?
Yes—Sculptra pairs beautifully with other treatments like microneedling, Botox, or laser procedures to improve skin tone, texture, and firmness.
