Sculptra in Corte Madera & Los Gatos
Medically reviewed by Dr. Michael Potter, MDLast reviewed
Sculptra is one of our premier treatments for restoring natural-looking volume and rejuvenating your appearance. This innovative dermal filler works with your body to rebuild collagen, offering long-lasting results that enhance your facial contours and skin texture.
What is Sculptra?
Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable treatment made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible material that stimulates your body’s natural collagen production. Unlike traditional fillers that provide immediate volume, Sculptra gradually restores lost volume over time by addressing the underlying cause of facial aging—collagen loss. The result is a subtle, natural improvement that develops over several weeks and can last for up to two years or more with proper maintenance.
