Restore Structure. Rebuild Collagen. Age Gradually.
Sculptra is a collagen-stimulating injectable designed to improve facial firmness, structure, and overall skin quality over time. Instead of filling lines directly, it works by encouraging your skin to produce its own collagen. The result is gradual, natural-looking volume restoration with improved elasticity. This makes Sculptra a strong option for patients who want subtle, long-term rejuvenation without the risk of looking overfilled.

Before and After: What to Expect
Before Treatment
Your journey starts with a detailed consultation. We assess your facial structure, skin quality, and ageing patterns, and discuss your long-term goals. This allows us to confirm whether Sculptra is right for you and to plan a tailored course of treatment.
After Treatment
Sculptra is injected into targeted areas using a fine needle or cannula, depending on your treatment plan. The procedure usually takes 30-45 minutes and is generally well tolerated. Mild swelling or tenderness may occur and typically settles within a few days.
How Long Does It Last?
Sculptra works gradually as your body produces new collagen. Visible improvements develop over several weeks and continue to improve with time. Results can last up to two years, with maintenance treatments recommended to support ongoing collagen production.
Aftercare and Recovery
Immediate Aftercare
Mild swelling, tenderness, or small bumps may appear at the injection sites and usually settle within a few days. You will be advised to gently massage the treated areas using the 5-5-5 rule: five minutes, five times a day, for five days. Avoid alcohol, saunas, and strenuous exercise for 24 hours.
Post-Treatment Tips
Any initial swelling settles quickly, but results develop gradually. Collagen production increases over the following weeks, leading to progressive improvements in firmness, structure, and skin quality rather than immediate change.
Long-Term Care
Sculptra is usually delivered as a course of treatments, often two to three sessions spaced several weeks apart. Results can last up to two years, with maintenance treatments recommended to support long-term facial support.

Related Treatments
Looking to support or enhance your Sculptra results? Sculptra can be combined with complementary treatments as part of a consultation-led plan.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers can be used alongside Sculptra to address areas needing immediate volume or contour, while Sculptra works in the background to rebuild collagen and support structure over time.
Microneedling
Microneedling improves skin texture and quality by stimulating collagen at a more superficial level. When combined with Sculptra, it supports overall skin health and helps maximise long-term rejuvenation results.
How Sculptra Works
Sculptra stimulates your skin’s natural collagen production, strengthening the underlying structure of the face over time. Rather than delivering instant volume, it rebuilds support gradually, improving firmness, elasticity, and overall skin quality in a way that looks natural and balanced.
Collagen Stimulation from Within
Sculptra is injected into targeted areas where collagen loss has occurred. The poly-L-lactic acid particles activate fibroblasts, encouraging new collagen formation over several weeks. This leads to a progressive improvement in skin strength and support.
Gradual, Natural Structural Support
Because Sculptra works with your own biology, changes appear slowly and subtly. Facial structure is enhanced rather than altered, helping avoid the overfilled look sometimes associated with traditional volumising treatments.
Long-Term Skin Quality Improvement
As collagen levels rebuild, the skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more resilient. Results continue to develop over time and can last up to two years, making Sculptra a reliable option for long-term facial rejuvenation.
