Sculptra® in Houston, TX | San Antonio Sculptra®

Q: What is Sculptra and how does it work to improve the appearance of my skin?

Sculptra is an injectable treatment containing poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) that stimulates your skin’s natural collagen production, gradually restoring volume and improving the appearance of wrinkles for a more youthful look.

Q: How is Sculptra different from other dermal fillers or injectables?

Unlike traditional fillers that provide immediate results by filling in creases, Sculptra works over time by stimulating collagen growth, leading to gradual and longer-lasting improvements in volume and skin texture.

Q: Is Sculptra FDA-approved and what are its main ingredients?

Yes, Sculptra is FDA-approved and contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), carboxymethylcellulose, and mannitol, all of which are biocompatible and biodegradable.

Q: Who is the ideal candidate for Sculptra treatments?

Ideal candidates are men and women experiencing facial volume loss, deep creases, or skin laxity, especially those seeking subtle, natural-looking results and preferring treatments that work gradually.

Q: Can Sculptra address deep facial wrinkles and volume loss effectively?

Yes, Sculptra is particularly effective for people with deeper, more pronounced creases that may not respond well to hyaluronic acid fillers, as it rebuilds volume and smooths wrinkles by boosting collagen.

Q: How many treatment sessions are usually needed to see optimal results?

Most patients require a series of 2–4 treatment sessions, typically spaced a few weeks apart, to achieve optimal and long-lasting results.

Q: How long do Sculptra results typically last after treatment?

The results from Sculptra can last up to two to three years, depending on individual factors and how your body absorbs the product.

Q: How soon will I see results after my Sculptra injections?

Results develop gradually; initial improvements may be noticed within several weeks, with full visible benefits usually appearing around 3–6 months after the first session as collagen builds.

Q: Can Sculptra be combined with other aesthetic treatments (Botox, other fillers)?

Sculptra can be safely combined with other aesthetic treatments like Botox and various fillers, enabling a comprehensive, personalized approach to facial rejuvenation, though specific recommendations depend on your provider’s assessment.

What is a Sculptra® Butt Lift?

A Sculptra® butt lift is a non-surgical treatment that adds shape and contour to the buttocks. Sculptra® butt injections are best suited for patients with adequate muscle and fat in the buttocks, and it is not recommended for those who have a naturally flat buttocks. Sculptra® buttocks have a more natural texture, and feel compared with silicone implants and other non-surgical butt augmentation solutions.

How is Sculptra® Performed?

Sculptra® is an injectable treatment that is administered in-office using a thin needle. Several injections are made to the treated area to evenly distribute the poly-L-lactic acid gel. This dermal filler works to restore facial volume, boost natural collagen, improve skin quality, and bring volume to of deep facial lines. Be sure to check out our Sculptra® before and after pictures to see the results of the treatment.

What is Recovery Like After Sculptra®?

While you may experience tenderness, redness or swelling at your injection sites after your treatment, this generally resolves on its own in a few days.

How Long Will Sculptra® Results Last?

Thanks to the collagen boost, the results of your Sculptra® treatment can generally last up to two to three years. How long your Sculptra® results last ultimately depends on how your body absorbs the product.
