 Common questions

  • Sculptra will signal your body to produce collagen over 6 months after treatment. Individual results vary, but you may see noticeable improvements around 6-8 weeks, with final results around 6 months. Final results last for up to two years. As with all cosmetic treatments, everyone is different, and will require a different dose and number of treatments to achieve optimal outcomes. Usually 2+ treatments are required to see substantial results.

  • Sculptra produces minimal post-treatment side effects. You may experience mild redness, swelling, tenderness, discomfort, and bruising around the treatment sites, but there are no harsh complications. The side effects usually dissipate within a few days. You can resume most of your daily activities immediately — no downtime. But you should avoid strenuous workouts and exercise for several days.
