Sculptra Injections In Akron, OH
Sculptra Stimulates Collagen-Stimulating Injections in Akron, OH
Sculptra® is a minimally invasive procedure that increases collagen production to restore the youthful appearance and volume of the skin. The body’s connective tissues and joints rely on collagen for strength and elasticity. The collagen in the skin keeps it firm, smooth, and youthful. Over time, our bodies’ collagen production decreases, resulting in wrinkles and sagging. Sculptra stimulates the production of natural collagen in the skin, resulting in firmer, younger-looking skin by correcting shallow to deep wrinkles and folds. After a Sculptra® treatment, the body produces more collagen, so the results do not appear right away.
Sculptra® can be used to treat the face, chest, and other parts of the body. A series of 3 treatments is typically recommended. Results last 2-3 years.
Benefits of Sculptra® include:
- Boosts collagen production
- Minimally-invasive and non-surgical procedure
- Offers subtle and natural-looking results
- Enhances skin texture and tone
- Results are gradual
- Improves skin health
- Results are long-lasting

Before and After Sculptra
FAQs
How does Sculptra® work?
Sculptra® stimulates collagen production by replacing lost body volume with a volumizing substance derived from poly-L-lactic acid. As a result of the injections, the body produces more collagen naturally.
Who are good candidates for Sculptra®?
Sculptra® treatments are recommended for patients who notice a decrease in volume in their faces, particularly their nasolabial folds, cheeks, and chin.
When will I see results from Sculptra®?
Sculptra® produces gradual results over a period of 4-6 months, with effects lasting approximately 2 years.
How long do results of Sculptra® typically last?
Even though Sculptra® is intended to last up to two years, patients often experience much longer lasting results.
How long do results of Sculptra® typically last?
Even though Sculptra® is intended to last up to two years, patients often experience much longer lasting results. To maintain results, one vial per year is standard.
How should I prepare for my appointment?
We ask that all patients avoid blood thinning medications and supplements for 2 weeks prior to treatment. This will help decrease the likelihood of bruising. Avoiding alcoholic beverages for 24 hours prior may also help decrease bruising. Taking Arnica tablets for 3 days prior may be beneficial in reducing bruising and swelling.
What does post-treatment care involve?
After treatment, you will need to follow the 3-3-3 rule. You must massage your face for 3 minutes, 3 times a day, for 3 days. This is important to do as it prevents nodules and stimulates the collagen production.
What are the side effects, risks, and possible complications?
Side effects post-treatment include discomfort, swelling, redness, bruising, and discoloration. There is also the risk of nodule formation, however, following the 3-3-3 rule will help mitigate this risk
Who cannot get Sculptra?
Those who are pregnant, breastfeeding, have an allergy to lidocaine, multiple allergies, high sensitivity to medications, or are experiencing cold or flu symptoms, should not get Sculptra. Those with autoimmune disorders should consult with their physician before proceeding with treatment.
