Aging comes with diminished collagen production, which is why it becomes harder and harder to maintain youthful-looking skin as you age. Using Sculptra filler, we strive to help our Austin, TX patients achieve healthy-looking skin that looks more radiant, rejuvenated, and restored. If you would like to know more about Sculptra and how you can benefit, please keep reading below!
Sculptra is an injectable made from Poly-L-Lactic Acid that is FDA-approved, is both biocompatible and biodegradable, and has been used in the U.S. since 1999. Sculptra is injected in the temple area, cheeks, nasolabial folds, marionettes, and jawline to help restore lost facial volume to the entire face. Once injected, it is gradually absorbed into your facial tissue which triggers your tissue to create new collagen. The results are gradual and subtle, helping to recreate that youthful fullness and glow to your face.

If you are interested in Sculptra in Austin, TX, the first step is to schedule a consultation at Aesthetica MedSpa. During this appointment, you will be assigned a dedicated specialist who will examine your skin and discuss your medical history with you. When having this discussion, it is very important to be open and honest. Not only will it help your specialist have a better understanding of your goals, but it will help prevent unnecessary risks. After assessing your skin and target area, our specialist will construct a personalized treatment plan for you. If you are content with our recommendations, you can receive your treatment on the same day, or if you would prefer, you can schedule a later appointment with our Patient Coordinator.
Your Sculptra treatment will take place in our Medical Spa, where you will be administered either local anesthesia, topical cream, or cold compress to numb the area and ensure minimal discomfort, depending on what you discuss during your consultation. Next, your specialist will use a very thin needle and syringe to inject exact amounts of the Sculptra solution into the targeted areas. This will encourage the production of collagen and give your face a smooth, firm texture.
After the Sculptra is injected, you may experience redness, swelling, tenderness, mild pain, or bruising. Your specialist may give you a mini-massage of the treatment area following the procedure. The treatment should take a little under an hour, which is why many patients call it the “lunch break” procedure.
Once you are finished with your session, you may notice some immediate results, most optimal results are achieved after several treatments that have been performed once a month. A cold pack can help alleviate mild pain and swelling in the first 24 hours post-procedure. The exact number of treatments needed will be determined during your consultation but could change depending on how your body reacts to the injections. The skin of the treated area(s) will look more toned, smoother, and in some cases, even have a cellulite reduction.
The cost of Sculptra in Austin, TX is dependent on the number of injections and the amount you will need to meet your goals. The best way to determine how much your treatment will cost is to come in for your consultation and receive an evaluation. Once your specialist has a better understanding of what you’re trying to achieve and how to help you get there, our Patient Coordinator can provide you with a breakdown of the total cost of your procedure.
