Collagen stimulation with Sculptra® in Frankfurt
Sculptra® is a filler based on poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) that stimulates the skin's natural collagen production.
Collagen is the key protein for firm skin. As we age, collagen production decreases and existing collagen is damaged by external influences such as UV radiation. This causes the skin to sag and wrinkles to form. Sculptra® is a biostimulator that stimulates the skin's own collagen production and giving it back its firmness and elasticity. The result is natural and lasts for up to two years after the last treatment.
Treatment
The polylactic acid filler is carefully inserted into the skin layers using fine needles. The liquid immediately creates a visible volume effect. The actual effect of the polylactic acid gradually becomes apparent over the next 6-8 weeks. The treatment should be repeated two to three times. The interval between treatment sessions is 4-6 weeks.
We recommend massaging the affected areas for a few minutes several times a day in the first few days after the treatment with Sculptra®. This helps the biostimulator to spread evenly under the skin and to develop its full effect. Slight redness, swelling or bruising, which occasionally occurs after the treatment, will subside after a few hours or days. Cooling the area directly after the injection can help this process.
