Restore youthful volume and firmness with Sculptra at Chapin Aesthetics, a collagen-stimulating treatment that gradually revitalizes your skin for long-lasting, natural-looking results.
What Is Sculptra?
Our facial shape and structure change noticeably as we age. High cheekbones, plump cheeks, and a slim jawline are traits associated with a youthful face, but all three can be altered by time. As we get older, the face loses both fat and collagen, causing the temples, under-eye areas, and cheeks to become sunken and hollow. At the same time, as fat migrates downward and skin sags, the lower face may develop a heavier appearance.
Sculptra® fillers are a non-surgical way to provide volume and lift to enhance the appearance of the face—but they work differently from hyaluronic acid fillers like Juvederm®, Restylane®, and RHA®. Biostimulatory fillers contain poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA, a synthetic, biodegradable substance used for creating sutures) as their main active ingredient. Instead of the volumizing effect coming from the filler itself, Sculptra® works on the deep underlying structure of the skin to promote production of the skin’s natural collagen, enhancing facial volume and reducing wrinkles. The result is a younger-looking appearance as lines, creases, and folds are reduced.
