How it works

How does Sculptra work

Sculptra is injected across the treatment area, where the poly-L-lactic acid gently stimulates the skin's fibroblasts to produce new collagen. This does not add volume immediately; instead, volume and firmness build gradually over weeks and months as your own collagen develops. Because the result is your own tissue, it looks natural and lasts well, with a course of two to three sessions usually recommended.
Sculptra rebuilds structure from within rather than simply filling:
Collagen stimulation — poly-L-lactic acid prompts fibroblasts to produce new collagen
Gradual volumisation — the growing collagen restores volume slowly and naturally
Structural support — rebuilds the deeper foundation of the skin across broad areas
Long-lasting effect — because it builds your own collagen, results can last up to two years

FAQs

Common questions

Usually two to three sessions spaced several weeks apart, as the collagen builds gradually between treatments.
Volume develops gradually over about six to twelve weeks and continues to improve across the course, rather than appearing immediately.
Because it stimulates your own collagen, results can last up to two years, longer than many hyaluronic acid fillers.
Massaging helps distribute the product evenly and reduces the chance of small bumps forming, so following the instructions is important.
Minimal, though some swelling or bruising can occur for a day or two.
