Sculptra Injections
Sculptra is a unique injectable dermal filler treatment designed to stimulate collagen production, restoring a natural, youthful firmness to aging skin. Known for reducing the appearance of facial lines, wrinkles, and volume loss, Sculptra offers a long-lasting approach to facial rejuvenation by addressing the root cause of aging—collagen depletion. For those seeking gradual, authentic-looking results, Sculptra is an excellent choice. Dr. Jacob Sedgh, a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon in Los Angeles, offers Sculptra treatments with precision and artistry, helping patients achieve enhanced, natural-looking results that last.
WHAT IS SCULPTRA?
Sculptra is formulated with poly-L-lactic acid or PLLA, a biocompatible and biodegradable compound that promotes the production of new collagen in your skin. As an injectable collagen stimulator, it goes a step beyond topical collagen treatments by stimulating collagen production deep within the dermal layers. After a series of treatments, you’ll notice the treated areas becoming firmer, and wrinkles and facial creases diminishing. Sculptra treatment areas include the following:
- Around the nose and mouth
- Cheeks and temples
- Chin and jawline
- Along the chest area or décolletage

FAQs about Sculptra
How is Sculptra different from other fillers?
Sculptra stimulates collagen production, leading to gradual, natural improvements in skin volume and texture. Unlike other fillers that provide immediate volume, Sculptra enhances facial features by addressing the underlying causes of aging for results that appear over time.
Is there downtime after Sculptra injections?
Downtime is minimal. Mild redness, swelling, or tenderness around the injection sites may occur but usually subsides within a few days. You can generally return to daily activities shortly after treatment.
How many Sculptra treatments will I need?
For optimal results, most patients undergo a series of three treatments spaced over a few months. Results improve gradually as collagen builds and typically last up to two years.
Can Sculptra be combined with other treatments?
Yes, Dr. Sedgh often combines Sculptra with other treatments like Botox or laser resurfacing for a comprehensive rejuvenation plan. During your consultation, he’ll discuss any complementary treatments that may enhance your results.
How long do Sculptra results last?
Sculptra’s collagen-stimulating effects can last up to two years. Some patients schedule maintenance treatments to sustain their results over time.
