Sculptra: The Biostimulatory Approach to Volume Restoration

Sculptra is a biostimulatory dermal filler that stimulates your skin’s natural collagen production. Composed of poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible and biodegradable substance, Sculptra gradually replaces lost collagen. By working in the deep dermis to reinforce the skin’s structure and help replace lost collagen, Sculptra gradually improves tightness and glow and corrects wrinkles and folds for up to two years.

Sculptra can be used to treat the cheeks, temples, nasolabial folds, and marionette lines. Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, Sculptra’s results develop over two to three sessions spaced about four weeks apart. The effects are gradually noticeable and long-lasting.

Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Fillers: Immediate Hydration and Customizable Volume

Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are renowned for their ability to provide immediate volume and hydration. Hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin, attracts and retains moisture, enhancing facial contours and smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles.

These versatile fillers can be tailored to specific areas of concern, such as lips, cheeks, and under-eye hollows. Results are visible immediately after treatment and typically last from six months to a year, depending on the product used and the area treated.
Healthy Complexions Spa offers a range of hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers, including Restylane, Juvéderm, Revance, and Revanesse. Learn more here.
