BioStimulators: Sculptra®

Long-Lasting Volume Restoration

Sculptra® is part of a unique class of injectables known as biostimulators, treatments that activate your body’s natural collagen production. Over time, this collagen rebuilds the skin’s internal structure, helping to gradually restore firmness, improve facial contours, and reinforce skin elasticity from within. Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra® works beneath the surface to support long-term rejuvenation, ideal for those seeking subtle, sustained results that evolve naturally over time.

Is Sculptra® right for you?

What To Expect From Sculptra®

At your consultation, we will review your skin concerns, assess volume loss, and determine if Sculptra® is the right treatment for you. Your provider will walk you through the treatment areas and explain how this biostimulatory injectable works over time to rebuild collagen and restore facial structure.
During your session, we will begin by cleansing the area and may apply a topical anesthetic to ensure comfort. Sculptra® is injected into targeted areas beneath the skin. Rather than providing instant volume like traditional fillers, Sculptra® creates a supportive environment that stimulates your body’s natural collagen production.
When you leave our office, you will have significantly more volume due to the water that the Sculptra® particles are suspended in for injection. Over the next 1-2 days, that water will be reabsorbed, leaving behind the small particles. As this happens, your face will go back to looking as it did before your treatment.
Lasting results develop gradually over several weeks to months as new collagen forms, improving skin firmness, texture, and elasticity. Typically, treatments are repeated monthly for a series of 2-3 treatments for best results. Once your desired outcome is achieved, maintenance treatments are typically only needed once per year.
This treatment is perfect for those looking for more subtle, gradual improvements, rather than the instant gratification given by traditional hyaluronic acid fillers.

Sculptra® Treatment Areas

Sculptra® is the first FDA-approved poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA-SCA) collagen stimulator. Our expert injectors use it to gradually restore volume, enhance facial contours, and improve skin firmness throughout the face.
Sculptra® can be administered in a variety of areas where volume loss has occurred. During your consultation, your provider will carefully assess your facial structure and recommend the most appropriate areas for treatment to help you achieve natural, balanced results.

Benefits of Sculptra®

Sculptra® enhances the skin’s structure by stimulating natural collagen production to gradually restore volume and improve firmness over time. We recommend Sculptra® for clients who want:
Long-Lasting Facial Rejuvenation

Results can last up to two years or more, making Sculptra® a sustainable option that requires less maintenance.

Improved Skin Structure and Elasticity

As collagen levels increase, the skin becomes firmer, more resilient, and better supported, minimizing sagging and volume loss.

Prevention of Aging

Smaller amounts of Sculptra® can be used to counterbalance the natural collagen loss associated with aging, making it an ideal treatment for prejuvenation.

Natural Looking Results

Sculptra® treatments are more subtle and develop slowly over time, so you continue to look like you, just refreshed.

FDA-Approved Performance

Sculptra® is FDA-approved for the correction of facial wrinkles and volume loss and has undergone rigorous clinical testing for safety and effectiveness.

Minimal Downtime

Treatments are performed in-office with little to no recovery time. Most clients return to their normal routine the same day.

Sculptra® treatments should be administered by a licensed provider with specialized training in biostimulatory injectables. At Gold Dermatology, our board-certified dermatologist and highly trained team deliver Sculptra® with precision and care, ensuring safe, natural-looking results in a clinical setting you can trust.

Sculptra® treatments typically take 30 to 60 minutes.

Unlike traditional fillers that add immediate volume with substances like hyaluronic acid, biostimulators work by stimulating your body’s natural collagen production. They deliver gradual, longer-lasting results that improve skin structure over time.

When administered properly by a trained professional, biostimulator treatments are safe and well-tolerated. Common side effects tend to be mild and temporary and include bruising, swelling, and tenderness. Uncommonly, more serious side effects such as skin discoloration, nodule formation, scarring, or infection may occur. Choosing a board-certified dermatologist significantly reduces these risks and ensures you are in the best hands to manage any adverse outcomes that may occur.
