SCULPTRA
TREATMENTS
Sculptra Treatments at The Lounge
Sculptra is a non-surgical treatment that helps to rejuvenate the skin and restore lost volume, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed appearance. At The Lounge, we offer this innovative treatment to help our clients achieve their aesthetic goals and feel more confident in their skin.
During a Sculptra treatment session, a series of injections are administered into the targeted areas of the face. These injections contain a synthetic material called poly-L-lactic acid, which helps to stimulate the production of collagen in the skin. Sculptra works by stimulating the body's natural production of collagen, a vital protein that provides structure and support to the skin. As we age, our natural collagen production decreases, leading to the development of wrinkles, fine lines, and loss of volume in the face.
Sculptra is a minimally invasive treatment that requires no downtime, making it a convenient option for clients who want to improve their appearance without the need for invasive surgery.
Unlike many other dermal fillers, the results of Sculptra can last up to two years, making it a long-lasting and cost-effective option for clients looking to improve their appearance. Sculptra is also a non-invasive treatment that requires minimal downtime, so clients can return to their daily activities shortly after the procedure. Typically, multiple treatment sessions are required to achieve optimal results, and our experienced team will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan based on your individual needs.
Common Questions About Sculptra Treatments
Q: What is Sculptra?
A: Sculptra is a type of injectable filler that is made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), which is a biocompatible, biodegradable substance that is naturally absorbed by the body over time. Sculptra is designed to stimulate collagen growth and gradually add volume to the face, resulting in a more youthful, refreshed appearance.
Q: What areas can Sculptra be used on?
A: Sculptra is primarily used to add volume and contour to the cheeks, temples, jawline, and other areas of the face that have lost volume due to aging. It can also be used to treat wrinkles, folds, and other signs of aging in the skin.
Q: How is Sculptra administered?
A: Sculptra is administered by injection into the target areas using a fine needle. The treatment typically involves a series of injections spaced out over several months to achieve the desired results. The number of treatments required will depend on the individual patient's needs and goals.
Q: Is Sculptra safe?
A: Sculptra is generally considered safe when administered by a trained and experienced medical professional. However, as with any cosmetic procedure, there is a risk of side effects such as bruising, swelling, redness, and tenderness at the injection site. If experienced, these typically are self-resolving after a few days.
Q: How long does Sculptra last?
A: Sculptra is designed to gradually stimulate collagen growth, so the results are not immediate. However, the effects of Sculptra can last for up to two years or more in some cases. The exact duration of the results will depend on a variety of factors, including the patient's age, skin condition, and the number of treatments received.
Q: What is the recovery time after Sculptra injections?
A: There is typically little to no downtime after Sculptra injections, and most patients can return to their normal activities immediately after treatment. Some minor swelling, bruising, or tenderness may occur at the injection site, but these side effects typically resolve on their own within a few days. It is important to avoid strenuous exercise, excessive sun exposure, and alcohol consumption for at least 24 hours after treatment.
Q: How much does Sculptra cost?
A: The cost of Sculptra treatment will vary depending on the number of injections needed, the experience of the injector, and other factors. Generally, Sculptra is a more expensive filler than some other options, such as hyaluronic acid fillers, however the trade off is that the effects are typically longer lasting and more durable over time.
