Aesthetic Envy offers affordable Sculptra™ face treatment in Sacramento, providing a natural, long-lasting solution for restoring facial volume and fullness.
Sculptra™ injection is an FDA-approved bioactive filler made of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), designed to stimulate collagen growth in the skin. This gradual process restores facial volume over time, typically requiring three injections over three to four months. The results can last up to two years.
Sculptra™ is customized and injected into facial contours needing structural support and volume. Once the Sculptra™ molecules are distributed into the soft tissue under your skin, they stimulate your body to create a collagen matrix. While the Sculptra™ is eventually broken down by the body, the collagen matrix remains, providing long-lasting results for up to two years.
As we age, we lose soft tissue volume in areas like the cheeks, temples, and midface, usually beginning in our 40s. Sculptra™ injections help reverse this process by stimulating the natural production of collagen, adding subtle volume to the treatment areas, and achieving a youthful appearance with natural fullness in the temples, midface, and cheeks.
Sculptra™ works within the deep dermis, revitalizing collagen production to restore your skin’s inner structure and volume. Unlike traditional collagen creams, whose molecules are too large to penetrate the skin, Sculptra™ uses micro-particles that the dermis absorbs, effectively enhancing your skin from within.
Our injectors at Aesthetic Envy will create a custom plan tailored to your needs. Most treatment plans start with two vials per session, with at least two sessions per area of concern. We recommend allowing four weeks between treatments to let your body build upon the effects of injections. For larger areas like the buttocks, significantly more Sculptra™ is required, usually around four vials per side.

Microneedling with Sculptra™ combines the collagen-boosting effects of microneedling with the long-lasting volumizing benefits of Sculptra™. This innovative treatment targets fine lines, wrinkles, and skin texture by using microneedling to create micro-injuries in the skin, promoting natural healing and collagen production. When combined with Sculptra™, the treatment delivers PLLA deeper into the skin, enhancing collagen growth and providing more substantial, longer-lasting results.

Before the Sculptra™ injections, a topical anesthetic may be applied to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure. The injection sites will then be marked for precise placement. Once the area is numb, Sculptra™ will be administered with a thin needle at each targeted location. Treatment duration can vary but typically ranges from 15 to 60 minutes, depending on individual needs. Most patients find the injections virtually painless, experiencing only mild pressure or tingling sensations.

Following Sculptra™ injections, you can immediately resume your daily activities. Some patients may notice temporary bruising, swelling, or redness around the injection sites, which typically diminishes within a few days. Any discomfort can be managed with over-the-counter NSAIDs. To optimize results, avoid vigorous activities and touching the treated areas to prevent product migration. Our aesthetic team will provide detailed aftercare instructions before you leave the office, ensuring you maximize the benefits of your treatment.
Immediately post-treatment, some patients may notice temporary fullness in the treated areas, which will settle as the product integrates into the skin. Since Sculptra™ works gradually by stimulating collagen production, initial results may not be immediately apparent. The timeline for noticeable improvements varies among individuals, depending on their body’s healing response. While some may observe changes within weeks, others may see optimal results over a few months.
Although Sculptra™ continues enhancing collagen over time, maintenance treatments are necessary to sustain results. Typically, results from Sculptra™ can last up to two years. During your consultation at Aesthetic Envy, our team will provide personalized insights into the expected outcomes of Sculptra™ based on your specific needs and goals.
Ideal candidates for Sculptra™ include those experiencing significant facial collagen loss or visible grade 2-3 cellulite on their body. Whether you seek facial rejuvenation or body contouring, Sculptra™ offers a versatile solution tailored to your aesthetic desires.
