تعرّفي على Sculptra

Sculptra (by Galderma) is an FDA-approved biostimulatory injectable containing poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) — a biocompatible, biodegradable material that triggers your body's own collagen production through a controlled regenerative process. Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers that provide immediate volume, Sculptra works gradually over weeks and months, rebuilding your skin's structural framework from within. Clinical studies demonstrate that Sculptra can increase type I collagen production by up to 66% at 3 months, with results maintained in over 80% of patients at 25 months. The gradual onset means changes appear entirely natural — no one will know you've had treatment. The PLLA microparticles are safely broken down by your body into lactic acid and CO₂ through normal metabolic processes, leaving behind newly produced collagen that provides structural support.

الفوائد

شو تتوقّعي

  • Long-lasting results — clinical studies show improvements maintained for up to 25 months in 80%+ of patients
  • Entirely natural, gradual improvement that builds over weeks and months
  • Stimulates your own type I and type III collagen production — addressing the root cause of volume loss
  • No "overfilled" appearance — the progressive mechanism means changes are subtle and natural
  • FDA-approved with extensive clinical evidence since 2004
  • The PLLA is safely metabolised by your body, leaving behind only newly produced collagen

المخاطر المحتملة

  • Swelling at injection sites for 2–5 days
  • Bruising at injection sites (common, resolves within 1–2 weeks)
  • Asymmetry — addressed at follow-up treatment sessions
  • Hypersensitivity reaction (very rare)

Avoid excessive sun exposure for 48 hours

Stay well hydrated to support the collagen-building process

Step 5

Continue gentle massage of the area for an additional 1–2 weeks for best results

أسئلة شائعة

أسئلة شائعة

Hyaluronic acid fillers add immediate volume that gradually absorbs over months. Sculptra does the opposite — it triggers your own collagen production that builds gradually over weeks and months, providing longer-lasting structural support. The results look completely natural because they ARE your own collagen.
