As we age the face loses some of its definition and smoothness. However, today there are a number of innovative facial treatments available to return the volume and glow to your skin. One such effective treatment includes Sculptra, a new long-lasting treatment for the rejuvenation of many facial areas.
What is Sculptra and how does it work?
Sculptra is an injectable procedure made from poly-L-Latic acid, which helps in the replacement of lost collagen. Sculptra can be used to plump up facial wrinkles and folds, to enhance the appearance of the face for a rejuvenated look. Sculptra is injected into the problem areas over the course of a few months, with results that can last for two years.
What is the difference between Sculptra and other facial rejuvenation treatments?
Sculptra differs from other treatments such as Botox, as, although results take slightly longer to develop, they also last a great deal longer. Botox results last around 3-5 months, while the results of Sculptra can last for up to 2 years. Sculptra is also more subtle than dermal fillers and Botox and combines rejuvenation with aging gracefully. The changes are subtle, but mean that those who have the treatment needn’t worry about that ‘tight’, ‘pulled-back’ look or the dreaded ‘trout-pout’.
What can Sculptra be used to treat?
Sculptra can be used to treat:
- The deep folds leading from the mouth to the nose (nasolabial folds), which are also known as ‘smile lines’.
- Marionette lines, which are the lines that frame the mouth.
- Wrinkles around the chin.
Sculptra is the treatment of choice for patients looking for a small amount of enhancement, to highlight their natural beauty instead of changing it.
