Sculptra® Biostimulator Injections
Sculptra® is a Health Canada- and FDA-authorized biostimulatory injectable treatment that provides long lasting results of up to two years, and is a great alternative to conventional hyaluronic acid fillers. Made from poly-L-lactic acid, Sculptra® is an advanced filler that is used to improve facial volume and treat lipoatrophy, or loss of facial fat. The advantage of using Sculptra® to treat facial volume loss over hyaluronic based fillers is that it triggers a controlled inflammatory response in the skin to stimulate the production of collagen, allowing your body to naturally rebuild its own volume in the process.

Benefits of Sculptra® Biostimulator Injections
Sculptra® is a popular treatment known for its ability to gradually restore volume whilst improving skin texture. Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra® works by stimulating collagen production, offering several advantages for those seeking natural-looking facial rejuvenation. Here are five key benefits of Sculptra®:
- Stimulates the natural collagen production process to rebuild volume and improve skin quality over time, resulting in a more youthful and radiant complexion.
- Stimulates collagen production over time, leading to a subtle and natural improvement in volume and skin texture gradually over time, avoiding an overly dramatic or sudden change in appearance.
- Provides long-lasting results that last up to two years or more, offering extended satisfaction with fewer maintenance treatments.
- Versatility allows it to be used to address various areas of the face, including cheeks, temples, jawline, and nasolabial folds, making it an ideal option for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
- While some swelling and bruising may occur post-treatment, the downtime associated with Sculptra® injections is generally minimal, allowing individuals to resume their daily activities relatively quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I expect with Sculptra biostimulator injections?
The results of Sculptra injections become visible gradually, usually within a few weeks. To reach your desired shape and volume we recommend our Sculptra patients to do several treatments with intervals of at least 3 to 4 weeks between each treatment. With little to no downtime other than some minor soreness, using Sculptra to treat volume loss is a great long-term alternative to hyaluronic acid fillers and for those who prefer not to undergo surgery. Book a consultation with one of our expert Sculptra injectors to create a treatment plan fit for you.
What is Sculptra® and how does it work?
Sculptra® is an injectable biostimulator that enhances collagen production to restore volume and improve skin quality over time. Unlike traditional fillers that provide immediate volume, Sculptra® works gradually by stimulating your body’s natural collagen production, leading to long-lasting, natural-looking results.
How long do Sculptra® results last?
Results from Sculptra® can last up to two years or more, depending on individual factors like age, metabolism, and lifestyle. Since Sculptra® stimulates natural collagen production, results develop gradually over a few months and improve with subsequent treatments.
How many Sculptra® treatments do I need?
Most patients require 2-4 treatment sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart for optimal results. The number of sessions depends on your age, skin quality, and aesthetic goals. Your provider will create a personalized treatment plan based on your needs.
What areas can Sculptra® treat?
Sculptra® is commonly used to restore volume and improve skin texture in areas such as:
- Cheeks & midface: Lifts and restores volume loss.
- Jawline: Improves definition and skin firmness.
- Temples: Fills in hollow areas for a rejuvenated look.
- Nasolabial folds (smile lines): Softens deep lines and wrinkles.
- Buttocks & hip dips: Enhances volume and shape (Sculptra® Butt Lift).
- Hands & décolletage: Rejuvenates thin, crepey skin.
Is Sculptra® better than dermal fillers?
Sculptra® and dermal fillers serve different purposes:
- Sculptra®: Works gradually by stimulating collagen production, offering natural, long-lasting results.
- Dermal Fillers: Provide instant volume but break down over time.
For deep volume loss and long-term skin rejuvenation, Sculptra® is an excellent choice. If you want immediate correction, traditional fillers may be better. Some patients combine both treatments for enhanced results.
Is Sculptra® safe?
Yes, Sculptra® is FDA-approved and has been safely used for over 20 years. It is made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible material that naturally dissolves in the body. Side effects are minimal, with most patients experiencing mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the injection sites, which subside within a few days.
What is the downtime after Sculptra®?
Sculptra® has minimal downtime. Most patients can resume normal activities immediately after treatment. However, mild swelling, redness, or bruising may occur, which typically resolves within a few days. Following the 5-5-5 rule (massaging the treated areas for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days) helps distribute the product evenly.
Who is a good candidate for Sculptra®?
Ideal candidates for Sculptra® include individuals who:
- Have age-related volume loss or loose skin.
- Want gradual, natural-looking enhancement.
- Prefer long-lasting collagen stimulation over temporary fillers.
- Are in good overall health with realistic expectations.
Sculptra® is not recommended for individuals with autoimmune disorders, active skin infections, or allergies to any of its ingredients. A consultation with a qualified provider is the best way to determine if it’s right for you.
