Sculptra® Injections

Serving patients in Henderson, Las Vegas, and the greater Clark County area.

What Is Sculptra®?

Sculptra® is an FDA-approved injectable treatment made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible and biodegradable synthetic material that has been used in medical applications for decades.
 
Unlike traditional dermal fillers that provide immediate volume by physically filling areas of loss, Sculptra® works gradually by stimulating the body’s natural collagen production. Collagen is an essential structural protein responsible for skin firmness, elasticity, and support.
 
Sculptra® is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the correction of shallow to deep nasolabial fold contour deficiencies and other facial wrinkles in appropriate candidates.

Potential Risks and Side Effects

All medical aesthetic procedures carry potential risks. Common side effects may include:
  • Swelling
  • Bruising
  • Redness
  • Tenderness
  • Mild discomfort
  • Itching
Less commonly, small subcutaneous nodules or lumps may develop. Most side effects are temporary and resolve without intervention. Your provider will review all risks and aftercare instructions during your consultation.
 

Recovery After Sculptra®

Sculptra® is considered a minimally invasive outpatient procedure.
Most patients:
  • Resume normal daily activities immediately
  • Experience mild soreness or bruising for several days
  • Avoid strenuous activity for 24 hours post-treatment
Your provider may recommend a brief massage protocol following treatment to optimize results.
 

What Sculptra® May Address

Sculptra® may be considered to improve the appearance of:

  • Nasolabial folds

  • Marionette lines

  • Chin wrinkles

  • Facial volume loss in the cheeks

  • Age-related facial contour changes

Treatment recommendations depend on facial anatomy, treatment goals, and clinical appropriateness.

What To Expect

Before treatment, a licensed healthcare provider will perform a medical evaluation and facial assessment to determine whether Sculptra® is appropriate.

During treatment:

  • A treatment plan is developed based on facial anatomy and treatment goals

  • The medication is injected into targeted areas of the face

  • The procedure is typically performed in an outpatient medical setting

Most patients experience minimal downtime. Mild swelling, tenderness, or bruising may occur temporarily after treatment.

Sculptra® works gradually, and improvement typically develops over time as collagen production increases. Many patients require a series of treatment sessions spaced several weeks apart based on clinical evaluation.

Individual results vary.
