The Art of Volume

Why Choose Clarity Acne & Aesthetics for Sculptra?

Your skin's collagen production declines over time, leading to fine lines, wrinkles, sagging, and facial volume loss. Sculptra is a unique biostimulatory aesthetic injectable that helps stimulate the production of collagen, improving skin quality for a smooth, supple, radiant look. Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra works gradually to enhance volume and improve skin tightness, revealing a refreshed, youthful glow for up to two years.

At Clarity Acne & Aesthetics, we specialize in precise Sculptra treatments designed to deliver long-lasting, natural rejuvenation. Whether you want to restore volume in the cheek region, improve skin quality and bring back elasticity, or achieve a more youthful appearance, our Sculptra treatment plans are customized for your needs.

The Epitome of Sculpted Elegance

What is Sculptra?

Sculptra is a biostimulatory facial injectable containing an FDA-approved poly-L-lactic substance that stimulates the body's natural collagen production. Instead of simply filling wrinkles, Sculptra injections gradually help restore skin structure by rebuilding collagen to improve skin quality over time.

Unlike traditional fillers, which provide instant volume, Sculptra treatment works in phases, increasing your body's collagen production for subtle, long-lasting results. This injectable poly-L-lactic acid treatment is perfect for men and women looking for a long-term approach to skin rejuvenation.

A Refined Approach to Rejuvenation

What is the Sculptra procedure like?

The Sculptra cosmetic procedure typically takes 30–45 minutes and requires little to no downtime. After an initial treatment consultation, your Clarity medical provider will evaluate your facial volume and skin quality to develop a customized plan.

During the procedure:

  1. A topical numbing agent is applied to the skin for comfort.
  2. Sculptra is injected using fine needles or a cannula into targeted areas, such as the cheek region, temples, jawline, or nasolabial folds.
  3. The injection site is gently massaged to distribute the product evenly.
  4. Post-care massage instructions are demonstrated in the office

Some patients may experience mild swelling or minor redness at the injection site, but this resolves quickly. As the poly-L-lactic acid works to stimulate collagen production, the results build gradually over time.

Precision Contouring and Renewal

What areas can Sculptra address?

Sculptra injections are ideal for restoring volume and improving skin quality in multiple areas:

  • Cheek region – Rebuilds lost volume for a lifted, youthful appearance.
  • Jawline and chin – Enhances contour and improves skin tightness revealing a refreshed, firmer look.
  • Nasolabial folds and marionette lines – Softens deep facial creases.
  • Temples – Restores volume to hollowed areas for facial balance.
  • Décolletage & chest – Improves skin quality and brings back firmness.

Youthful Volume That Lasts

Explore the Possibilities

Am I a candidate for Sculptra?

Ideal candidates for Sculptra treatment are men and women who want to restore lost volume and improve skin quality over time. Sculptra is perfect for those who prefer a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that delivers gradual, natural-looking improvements over instant changes.

Sculptra injections may not be suitable for individuals with autoimmune disorders, active skin infections, or a history of keloid scarring. Those prone to cold sores should take precautions before treatment. Our certified medical professionals will assess your candidacy to ensure that Sculptra is a safe and effective treatment option for you.

A Seamless Fit for Busy Schedules

Sculptra Recovery

Recovery from Sculptra injections is minimal. Patients can resume normal activities immediately, but strenuous exercise should be avoided for 24 hours to reduce swelling. Mild initial swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the injection site is normal and resolves within a few days.

Patients are advised to follow the "5-5-5 rule"—massaging the area for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days to promote even collagen stimulation and optimal results. Staying hydrated also helps the injected poly-L-lactic acid integrate smoothly into the skin.

Own Your Glow

Sculptra Results

The results of a Sculptra treatment develop gradually as collagen production increases. Most patients begin noticing improvement in 6–12 weeks, with full results appearing within 3–6 months.

Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra’s effects last up to two years, making it one of the longest-lasting facial injectables. Periodic touch-up treatments can help maintain your youthful, rejuvenated look.
