Sculptra®
Rebuilding Your Skin’s Foundation for Lasting Radiance
At You & I, we're passionate about treatments that offer truly natural and lasting rejuvenation. That's why we're so excited about Sculptra® – it's a unique approach to restoring youthfulness that works with your body, not just for it.
Unlike traditional dermal fillers that add immediate volume, Sculptra® is a collagen stimulator. It's designed to help your skin rebuild its own lost collagen, giving you a subtle, gradual, and beautifully natural transformation that can last for years.
How Does Sculptra® Work Its Magic?
Sculptra® contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible substance that has been safely used in medical applications for decades. When injected into the deeper layers of your skin, these tiny PLLA particles begin a remarkable process: they stimulate your body's natural collagen production.
Think of it like planting seeds. Over time, your body responds by producing new collagen, which gradually restores volume, improves skin texture, and enhances overall skin quality. Because it's your own collagen, the results look incredibly natural – a refreshed, firmer version of you.
The Benefits You’ll Love
Natural, Gradual Results: No sudden changes, just a subtle, beautiful evolution as your skin rebuilds from within. People will notice you look great, but won't pinpoint why!
Long-Lasting Transformation: One of Sculptra's biggest advantages is its longevity. Results can last up to two years or even longer after your full treatment series.
Addresses the Root Cause: Instead of just filling lines, Sculptra tackles the underlying reason for aging skin – collagen loss.
Improved Skin Quality: Beyond just volume, clients often report firmer, smoother skin with better texture and luminosity.
Subtle yet Significant: It restores youthful contours without creating an "overfilled" appearance.
Common Areas We Treat With Sculptra
Sculptra is fantastic for addressing widespread volume loss and improving skin quality across larger areas of the face. Popular treatment zones include:
Temples: To fill hollows and restore a more youthful contour.
Cheeks: To rebuild lost volume and create a natural lift.
Jawline & Chin: To enhance definition and improve overall facial balance.
Nasolabial Folds (Smile Lines): To soften deep creases.
Marionette Lines: To lift the corners of the mouth.
What to Expect on Your Sculptra® Journey
Your Sculptra® journey typically involves a series of 2-3 treatment sessions, usually spaced about 4-6 weeks apart. This allows for a gradual and controlled collagen building process. During your consultation, we'll create a personalised treatment plan tailored to your specific goals.
While you won't see immediate volume like with traditional fillers (as the product needs time to stimulate collagen), you'll start to notice subtle improvements in skin quality and firmness over the weeks and months following your sessions. The most significant and lasting results typically become apparent around 3-6 months after your final treatment.
Is Sculptra® Right for You?
If you're looking for a gradual, natural-looking rejuvenation that rebuilds your skin's youthful foundation for long-lasting results, Sculptra could be an excellent choice. It's particularly well-suited for individuals experiencing general volume loss and those who prefer a more understated yet impactful transformation.
