Dermal fillers can take years off of your face, restoring youthfulness and enhancing your features. However, most fillers require frequent touch-ups to maintain your results. The cost of these appointments can add up quickly, and some people want longer-lasting results.
Sculptra in Troy is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that rejuvenates and revitalizes the skin while redefining your facial features. Compared to traditional dermal fillers, the effects of this treatment can last much longer. As Your Girlfriend the Plastic Surgeon®, Dr. Danielle Deluca-Pytell wants you to look and feel your best and can answer any of your questions about the procedure during an initial consultation.
Sculptra is not a filler: it contains a biocompatible compound called poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). This compound stimulates your body to revitalize collagen production in the deepest layers of your skin. The result: your natural collagen will rebuild over time, restoring volume while reinforcing the structural stability of your skin. With Sculptra, you create the filler.
The goal of Sculptra injections is to restore volume to shallow, sunken areas of the skin and fill out wrinkles. Sculptra injections in Troy could be a perfect treatment for you if you have any of the following skin concerns: marionette lines, nasolabial folds, or volume loss in the face, including the cheeks, temples, and chin.
Sculptra injections are safe for all skin types, shades, and tones. However, some individuals are not suitable candidates for Sculptra, including pregnant or breastfeeding women or patients with bleeding disorders. If you are unsure of whether Sculptra is the best fit for you, we are happy to answer your questions and walk you through your options.
The first step to seeing the beautiful results of Sculptra is to book a consultation at our Troy office to determine if it is the right treatment option for you. In this consultation, we will complete a personalized skin assessment to develop a customized treatment strategy for your needs.
We typically advise our clients to start with three Sculptra injection sessions spaced approximately one months apart. During the Sculptra procedure, you will receive a topical anesthetic, and an inhaled anxiety reducer (Pro-Nox) if desired. Dr. DeLuca-Pytell is the only injector, and she will administer Sculptra to the treatment area(s). The procedure can be as quick as 15 minutes, depending on the area you are treating.
The Sculptra injection treatment is not a typical dermal filler. Instead, it stimulates collagen production. This process will gradually produce results, and you will see the full effects of your Sculptra injection procedure in Troy after several months. However, this does not mean you will require downtime after your Sculptra treatment. You could return to work right after your procedure!
One of the key benefits of Sculptra is that its results are incredibly long-lasting – results can last up to two years or more. You can help maintain these results by moisturizing the treatment area daily, avoiding direct sun exposure, and having a high-quality skincare regimen. However, individual results may vary, and you may require a few Sculptra treatments to achieve your optimal results. During your initial consultation, our team will be able to craft the ideal strategy for you.
Our clinic offers a full suite of treatments for a variety of concerns. We believe in delivering high-quality results with an emphasis on accentuating and enhancing your natural beauty.
