FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
IS SCULPTRA A TYPE OF DERMAL FILLER?
It is critical to recognize that Sculptra is essentially a collagen stimulator. The filling action of Sculptra is caused by a response in the skin that results in the formation of new collagen. The Sculptra is absorbed by the tissue and disappears after about two years, but the new collagen layer that is left behind may endure for another two years or more. Most skin imperfections require a series of treatments with Sculptra to achieve adequate filling.
ARE THERE ANY PRE TREATMENT GUIDELINES?
For at least 7 days prior to your Sculptra treatment it is important that you avoid taking any type of anti-inflammatory medication, including Aspirin, Advil, Motrin, Ibuprofen, Naproxen, Aleve, etc. It is also recommended that you stop taking any type of Omega-3 supplements such as fish oil, flaxseed oil, and vitamin supplements that include Vit E. Such medications can influence the intensity of bruising, and therefore should be temporarily discontinued.
ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS TO SCULPTRA?
The best way to prevent any potential side effects is to see an experienced and skilled Sculptra specialist. Treatment should always be performed by physicians who have received comprehensive and specialized training at Sculptra. In clinical studies, the most commonly reported side effects after treatment were:
• Redness
• Swelling
• Tenderness
• Injection site pain
• Bruising
• Bleeding
• Itching and lumps
HOW MUCH DOES A SCULPTRA FACE LIFT COSTS?
Overall, treatment costs will vary depending on the number of vials used, and the results you expect to achieve. During your initial and complimentary consultation at StudioMD Mendham NJ, the treatment provider will explain about all aspects of Sculptra Facelift, including its estimated costs. So you can carefully consider the costs and assess all the benefits of Sculptra before making a final decision.
HOW LONG DOES SCULPTRA FACELIFT LAST?
Over time, Sculptra progressively and subtly improves the appearance of the skin, giving it a more youthful aspect. It improves the inner structure of your skin and helps restore facial volume that has been lost to aging. Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, Sculptra can boost your skin's own natural collagen by synthesizing the natural process. It's a one-time treatment that usually takes three injection sessions spread out over several months with results that can last for up to two years.
