What Is Sculptra?

 

 

Sculptra® is an injectable biostimulator made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible and biodegradable substance safely used in medical applications for decades. Unlike traditional dermal fillers that create immediate volume, Sculptra works gradually, improving skin structure from within.

 

At TimelessRX, Sculptra® is used to restore volume, strengthen skin integrity, and promote natural facial rejuvenation without an overfilled appearance.

​

​

 

How Does Sculptra Work?

 

 

Once injected, Sculptra® activates your body’s natural collagen-building process. The PLLA particles stimulate fibroblasts, encouraging new collagen formation as the product is slowly and safely absorbed by the body.

 

This process results in:

 

• Gradual, natural-looking volume restoration

• Improved skin firmness and elasticity

• Long-lasting results that evolve over weeks to months

 

 

Most clients benefit from a customized series of treatments, spaced several weeks apart, for optimal collagen stimulation.

Risks & Considerations

 

 

When performed by a trained medical professional, Sculptra is considered safe. However, as with any injectable treatment, potential risks may include:

 

• Temporary swelling, redness, or bruising

• Mild tenderness at injection sites

• Small nodules or firmness under the skin (rare and minimized with proper technique and massage)

• Uneven results if aftercare instructions are not followed

 

 

A detailed consultation at TimelessRX ensures this treatment is appropriate for your anatomy, skin health, and aesthetic goals.

Before Care: Preparing for Your Sculptra Appointment

 

 

To ensure optimal results and minimize bruising:

 

• Avoid alcohol for 24–48 hours before treatment

• Avoid blood-thinning medications or supplements (if medically safe) such as aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, and vitamin E for 5–7 days prior

• Stay well hydrated

• Arrive with clean skin, free of makeup

 

 

Your TimelessRX provider will review your medical history and design a personalized treatment plan.

​​

​

After Care: Supporting Your Results

 

 

Proper aftercare is essential for achieving smooth, natural results.

 

The 5-5-5 Massage Rule

 

• Massage treated areas for 5 minutes, 5 times per day, for 5 days

 

 

Additional aftercare guidelines:

 

• Mild swelling is normal and temporary

• Avoid strenuous exercise for 24–48 hours

• Avoid heat exposure (saunas, hot tubs, excessive sun) for 24–48 hours

• Do not apply pressure to treated areas beyond instructed massage

• Results will develop gradually over several weeks

 

 

Full results continue to improve as collagen rebuilds over time.​
