- Sculptra® is made of poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible substance that naturally stimulates collagen production in the skin.
- In aesthetic medicine, it is used to restore lost volume and gradually improve skin firmness.
- Treated areas: cheeks, temples, jawline, marionette lines, chin, and sometimes the eye contour.
- Results appear gradually and can last up to 2 years, depending on the indication and individual response.
Sculptra Injections
Naturally stimulate your own collagen to rejuvenate and firm your skin.
Sculptra® Injections
What are Sculptra injections?
Sculptra® is an injectable biostimulant that works differently from traditional dermal fillers.
Rather than providing instant volume by filling in lines or hollows, Sculptra® gradually stimulates your skin’s own collagen production, leading to a natural restoration of facial volume and a visible improvement in overall skin quality.
How is Sculptra® different from other injectables?
Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers that offer immediate results, Sculptra® is made of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible compound that has been safely used in medicine for decades. Once injected into the deeper layers of the skin, it triggers a natural regenerative process where the skin slowly produces new collagen. This process helps:
- Rebuild lost facial volume
- Improve skin thickness and elasticity
- Redefine facial contours with a subtle, natural look — no frozen appearance
Results appear progressively over several weeks and can last up to 2 years.
Sculptra® is ideal for treating:
- Volume loss in the cheeks, temples, and facial contours
- Mild to moderate skin laxity
- Overall improvement in skin firmness and texture
- Deep smile lines (nasolabial folds) and marionette lines
- Hollowed under-eye areas (as a gentler alternative to HA fillers)
- Collagen stimulation as a proactive anti-aging strategy
The injections are performed in the dermis
Areas of treatments
Description of Injectable Treatment Areas
It is possible to inject most areas of the face and even the hands to address age-related volume loss. However, no technology, not even surgery, can recreate lost volume as naturally as Sculptra®, a biostimulant that stimulates your skin’s own collagen production.
As we age, we experience a loss of subcutaneous fat, muscle mass, bone density, and collagen. This combination leads to a gradual sagging of the face. Facial structures collapse, creating jowls, nasolabial folds (smile lines), and marionette lines. The jawline becomes less defined, and the overall contour of the face starts to droop.
Before directly filling facial hollows, it’s essential to restore key support pointsparticularly in the cheekbones and temples. These areas act as structural pillars: they support the skin, lift sagging tissues, and help restore a more youthful, lifted appearance.
With Sculptra®, the goal isn’t just to fill, but to reactivate collagen production, so your skin becomes naturally firmer and more resilient. Once this foundation is rebuilt, it’s possible to refine specific areas like nasolabial folds or marionette lines, if needed.
Try this: Gently lift the skin between your temple and cheekbone with your hand. Do you notice a visible improvement in the lower face? Less hollowing? Fewer wrinkles? That’s exactly the kind of effect that Sculptra® treatments can reproduce along with long-term collagen stimulation for natural, gradual, and lasting results.
People who are looking for a lifted look without surgery can absolutely achieve visible results with Sculptra®. A “soft lift” can be achieved by injecting a few carefully placed syringes. The final result appears more gradually than with traditional hyaluronic acid fillers, but it’s more natural, without the risk of overfilling, and longer-lasting (up to 2 years).
Sculptra® can even be used around the eye area in specific cases, to help support the upper cheek and improve the appearance of under-eye hollowing,not by superficially filling the area, but by deeply reinforcing the structure from within.
How Does an Injection Session Work?
Personalized Evaluation
At Infinium, before your first injection, we take the time to get to know you. Every person is unique and experiences the signs of aging differently. A personalized consultation allows us to identify your real needs and establish the costs associated with treatment.
Photography
Before and after photos are taken to properly document the areas being treated. These images are a valuable tool to visualize the changes following your dermal filler injections. At Infinium, your satisfaction is our top priority.
Medical Evaluation
During your first visit, you will meet with the physician for an initial assessment. They will ensure you are a good candidate for dermal fillers and will discuss your goals and expectations with you.
Dermal Filler Injections
We primarily use Juvéderm® and Belotero® products, both made of hyaluronic acid and internationally recognized. To optimize results for each facial area, your injector may select from a variety of formulations: Ultra Plus®, Ultra®, Volbella®, Volift®, Voluma®, Volux®, Volume®, Intense®, Balance®, etc. While all are hyaluronic acid-based, they differ in consistency and concentration.
For example, to lift and support the cheeks, a denser product is required to act as a structural base. For softening smile lines, a more flexible filler is used. In the under-eye area, a thinner, low water-retention product is preferred to ensure smooth, natural results.
We use advanced injection techniques such as MD Codes. For higher-risk areas, our medical injectors often use blunt-tip cannulas instead of needles. Cannulas are safer and help reduce the risk of damaging blood vessels or sensitive structures.
All our dermal fillers contain lidocaine for enhanced comfort during treatment.
Post-Treatment Instructions
After receiving hyaluronic acid injections, you should follow these aftercare guidelines:
For the first 6 hours:
-
Do not touch the treated areas
-
Avoid lying down
For 24 hours:
-
Avoid intense physical activity
-
Sleep on your back for the first two nights
-
Avoid extreme temperatures (hot or cold) for 2 weeks
Cold compresses (not ice) can be applied to reduce swelling or discomfort. You may take acetaminophen (Tylenol®) if needed.
Ongoing Follow-Up
Once your session is over, your care doesn’t stop there. At Infinium, we remain available to support you. Depending on the area treated, a follow-up appointment will be scheduled 2 to 4 weeks after your injections. We’ll assess whether any touch-ups are necessary.
