Additional Information
What is Sculptra?
As the first - and original - injectable collagen stimulator containing microparticles of poly-L-lactic acid, Sculptra helps restore facial skin structure, which may provide long-lasting skin improvement.
What is Poly-L-lactic acid?
Poly-L-lactic (PLLA) acid is an absorbable, semi-permanent, injectable implant that can be used to gradually restore volume and stimulate collagen formation. It is FDA-approved for the correction of facial fat loss.It is also FDA-approved to correct nasolabial fold deficiencies and other facial wrinkles.
Mechanism of Action:
Injection of poly-L-lactic acid into the deep dermis or subcutaneous tissue may cause an immediate augmentation of the treated tissue. This is a temporary but immediate response due to tissue edema and fluid from the reconstitution of the product. It will resolve within 2 to 3 days after injection. Once the carrier substance is absorbed, the poly-L-lactic acid particles induce an inflammatory response that breaks down the poly-L-lactic acid into lactic acid monomers. It is then metabolized to carbon dioxide and water while stimulating the production of new collagen type-I fibers in the skin.
