Overview
Over time, your skin loses its full, firm, youthful appearance. This is the result of a natural ageing process: your skin is damaged, becomes thinner, or loses its natural elasticity. As a result, it becomes loose and starts to wrinkle. Fat tissue, which also helps to fill out your face, is lost, causing skin to sag and wrinkle further.This reduction in skin volume can make your face look thin and narrow, possibly making you appear older than you are. Fortunately, Sculptra™ may smooth lines and wrinkles and help your skin regain a firm and youthful appearance by restoring skin volume you may have naturally lost.Dr. Thevendra is one of the first trained doctors to know how to use Sculptra.
Enhance your appearance with Sculptra™
With Sculptra™, you can restore facial contour and get rid of lines and wrinkles without surgery. Sculptra™ is a synthetic, injectable material that contains skin-smoothing microparticles to help lift and smooth sagging skin, severe wrinkles, creases, dark circles, and scars.
Poly-L-lactic acid, the main ingredient of Sculptra™, has been used successfully in surgical procedures for bio-reabsorbable sutures, in bone plates and screws, and as a medium for medication, among others.
For more than 25 years. Sculptra™ has been specially developed to repair contour defects in the face and more than 150,000 patients have been treated worldwide since 1999.
Sculptra™ is long-lasting, bio compatible, and biodegradable.
Unlike surgical options, Sculptra™ can provide gradual, natural-looking results with less traumatic treatment. Sculptra™ works in the lower layers of the skin to smooth and firm the treated areas of the face.
The procedure can be performed in Apsaras Aesthetic’s clinic and can take as little as 30 minutes.
Dr. Thevendra will inject Sculptra™ into the areas requiring treatment. The number of necessary injections depends on several factors, including your age, how deep your wrinkles are, and the type of treatment you desire.
Generally the procedure consists of three treatments administered over the course of three consecutive months.
In contrast to some other treatments that require frequent refresher sessions, a clinical study has shown that the aesthetic improvements obtained with Sculptra™ have persisted for up to 2 years in many patients.
What to expect during treatment with Sculptra™
There may be some discomfort with the procedure.
The most common side effects with the use of Sculptra are injection-related at the site of the injection, such as slight tenderness, redness or minor bruising.
Very rarely there can nodules which resolve without treatment.
After treatment, you should notice gradual results over the next several weeks.
Book your Consultation
The consultation is probably the most important part of a patient’s journey and should never be under-estimated.
For all new patients we always commence with a free 30 minutes consultation and for all existing patients every appointment starts with a mini-consultation and up-date.
At the Apsaras Aesthetic Clinic, our Aesthetic Medical Practitioners will carry out a thorough skin assessment and discuss individual needs on a one-to-one basis in a relaxed but informal atmosphere.
All treatments are individually planned and tailor-made to your unique requirements. During the consultation we will explain all the options and recommend the most suitable treatment, or combination of treatments, for you. We will also discuss expected procedures.
