Sculptra Filler Injections Northern Virginia
Sculptra isn’t just a dermal filler–it replenishes your face’s collagen supply to create natural, long-lasting results. Over time, Sculptra’s compounds boost collagen creation, combatting volume loss in the cheeks, temple, and mid-face. The result: a gradual, natural transition to your more youthful look. Say good-bye to fine lines and wrinkles!
Sculptra has been FDA approved since 2004 for use in the face for volume loss. Sculptra works by stimulating your own body to produce collagen in response to the Poly L Lactic Acid, it’s main component.
The correction is seen immediately but that subsides rather quickly because it is mostly saline. Over the next few weeks, collagen is gradually built up from the injections, and the appearance of your results improve. Optimal results usually occur 2-3 months after the Sculptra treatment, and commonly last somewhere between 2 to 3 years, varying on a case-by-case basis. Side effects are rare, with the most common being swelling, bruising and redness around the treatment site.

Sculptra may help improve your facial appearance if you have lost volume in any of the following areas:
• cheeks
• mid-face region
under the eyes (in the hollows of the eyes)
• temples
• jawline
Sculptra is also used to fill in deep nasolabial folds, (i.e., the lines extending from the corners of the nose to the corners of the mouth), chin wrinkles and marionette lines (i.e., the lines framing the mouth). It helps to reinforce the thickness of the skin for a smooth and firm texture.
Note that Sculptra should not be used on any areas with active infection or inflammation. Also, it is not suitable for individuals that are prone to keloid formation or hypertrophic scarring.
