Sculptra Injections

What is Sculptra?

Sculptra is a type of injectable that is made of synthetic polymer named “poly-L-lactic acid” (PLLA) which is safe for the face and body.

How does it work?

Unlike other dermal fillers that use hyaluronic acid, Sculptra is biocompatible and stimulates the skin's natural collagen production. As people age and are exposed to the sun, collagen production decreases. Wrinkles are the first sign of reduced collagen. Sculptra uses tiny beads of PLLA to increase volume and smoothen out wrinkles. As the beads biodegrade in the body, the body starts to build collagen where the beads previously were injected.

Who is a candidate for Sculptra?

Healthy individuals who are aging, experiencing facial volume loss, and want a rejuvenating result are good candidates for Sculptra.

How long does it last?

Based on clinical studies, Sculptra has been shown to last up to 25 months! Results are dependent on the amount of product used as well as the initial contour irregularity.

How much Sculptra do I need?

Your aesthetic provider will be able to give a full evaluation and treatment. Since collagen stimulates the bodys’ collagen production, it will take a full 3-4 months to see the full result. Patients will typically need 3 sessions (each session about 4 weeks apart) for the best results. After the initial 3 treatments, it is recommended to follow up with your provider in 6 months if additional treatment is needed.

What can I expect?

As with any injection, there may be some redness, tenderness, bruising, swelling, and bleeding. Discomfort can be minimized prior to injection with numbing cream and ice. Side effects from injections typically resolve in a few hours but can last up to 14 days.

I had such an AWESOME experience at Halo Beverly Hills.

PA Haley Trinh is professional and talented with a knowledge of her specialty that surpassed my expectations. I'm a real wimp when it comes to this stuff so PA Haley numbed my skin pretty well and took time to explain the procedures and reassured me throughout. She Picosured my neck and face and followed that with Potenza. The Potenza was still a bit uncomfortable but she helped me get through it. Afterwards, I got injected with some Dysport. I'm 3 weeks out from my procedures and the heavy lines all over my face and neck have really improved.

This place is gorgeous with sweet views of LA & was relaxing from the moment I walked through the front door. I'd give 6 stars if yelp allowed more than 5. Thank you !

I have been wanting to get Botox and I came across Nurse Angella.

She is really amazing! I was super nervous especially this being my first time getting any treatments done. She made the whole process very comfortable. I highly highly recommend scheduling an appointment here. I will definitely be coming back for my touch up~

This place is absolutely amazing!

I found Nurse Angella on instagram and switched from my previous clinic that was expensive and stuffy - but this office has the most kind, friendly staff and nurse angella is patient, explains everything and helps you find a treatment plan for your budget. My botox results are 10/10 and i felt like she actually did the proper prep work to figure out where to inject that my other plastic surgeon doctor didn't! Love this place and will continue coming here!
