Sculptra® Face

Natural tightening effect – without surgery, without volume.

Sculptra® Face

Over time, the contours of the face change. Areas may appear softer, the jawline loses definition, and early signs like jowling may become noticeable. At the same time, the skin's elasticity and the underlying tissue decrease, making the face overall look less defined and fresh.

Sculptra® addresses this issue.

The treatment does not aim for classic volume enhancement but rather focuses on the targeted activation of the body's own collagen production. This improves skin quality, firms the structure, and restores elasticity. As a result, the contours may appear more defined, the skin looks tighter, and fine lines are visibly reduced.

The results develop gradually over several weeks. The face looks fresher, clearer, and overall more harmonious – without altering the natural facial features.

Sculptra® is particularly suitable for patients who desire a long-term, natural improvement and value discreet, elegant results.

Frequently Asked Questions about Sculptra Treatment

The effects develop gradually. Initial changes are visible after a few weeks and continue to build over several months.
No, Sculptra® is primarily not a classic volume product. Unlike hyaluronic acid, which adds volume directly, Sculptra® works by stimulating the body’s own collagen production. As a result, a subtle volumizing effect may develop over time, but this is not comparable to the immediate volume increase provided by hyaluronic acid. The focus is more on improving skin texture and achieving a natural lifting effect.
Results can last up to two years. Typically, a touch-up is advisable after about one and a half to two years, depending on individual skin condition and desired results.
Yes. Combining it with other treatments can further enhance the results. Particularly beneficial is the combination with radiofrequency microneedling (Morpheus8®) to further stimulate collagen production and specifically improve skin quality.
In some cases, the tissue structure created by collagen stimulation may make surgery technically a bit more challenging. However, in experienced hands, this usually does not pose a significant issue—especially with modern techniques like the deep-plane facelift. In our practice clinic, we regularly perform deep-plane facelifts on patients who have previously been treated with Sculptra®.
Unlike classic fillers, the effects of Sculptra® develop gradually. Typically, two to three sessions spaced about four to six weeks apart are advisable to specifically stimulate collagen formation and achieve particularly natural results. The exact number depends on your starting situation, the extent of volume loss, and your individual treatment goals.
After the treatment, mild swelling, redness, or small bruises may occur, which usually subside within a few days. Most patients are socially acceptable shortly after the treatment. For optimal distribution of the product, we recommend regular massages of the treated areas in the first few days. We often follow the so-called 5-5-5 rule: massage for five days, five times a day for five minutes each time. We will, of course, discuss the individual aftercare in detail with you.
