Skin areas and concerns
At MyAesthetics, Sculptra is used with precision and restraint, designed not to change your face, but to rebuild what time has taken. Our approach focuses on long-term collagen regeneration, delivering results that look natural, refined, and entirely you.
Sculptra is an injectable treatment made from poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible compound that stimulates your body’s own collagen production. Rather than adding instant volume like traditional fillers, Sculptra works over time to rebuild the skin’s internal structure, restoring thickness, firmness, and support. As collagen regenerates, the skin becomes smoother, fuller, and more resilient.
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.
Sculptra is injected into targeted areas using a sine needle or canula, 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.
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.
