Brand: W Cosmetic Surgery
Rating: 4.9 (88 reviews)

Sculptra is a unique injectable that works differently from traditional fillers. Instead of just adding volume, Sculptra stimulates your body’s natural collagen production, addressing volume loss from within while restoring firmness and structure to the skin.

What is Sculptra?

As we age, the collagen that gives our skin its strength and elasticity breaks down, leading to wrinkles, sagging, and hollowing. By triggering collagen regrowth, Sculptra helps rebuild the skin’s foundation, providing long-lasting rejuvenation. Formulated from poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible substance naturally absorbed by the body, Sculptra offers a gradual and natural improvement. The results develop over time as your skin regains volume, smoothness, and texture. With this treatment, patients can achieve a youthful, refreshed look without the “pillow face” effect sometimes seen with overdone fillers.

How is a Sculptra Treatment Performed?

Your Sculptra treatment in the Philadelphia & Plymouth Meeting area at W Cosmetic Surgery™ begins with an in-depth consultation. Dr. Wulc will analyze your face and may refer to photographs of you in your younger years to determine where volume has been lost. The goal is to restore a more youthful, natural-looking appearance without overcorrection. Once the treatment plan is established, a topical anesthetic is applied to ensure comfort during the procedure. Dr. Wulc reformulates Sculptra in a diluted form with a local anesthetic, allowing for a smooth, pain-free injection experience. After injecting the product, the treated areas are gently massaged to distribute Sculptra evenly. The procedure typically takes 30 to 45 minutes.

What to Expect After Sculptra Treatment?

The full results of Sculptra develop gradually, often becoming noticeable around six weeks after the injection. Most patients require two to three sessions spaced four to six weeks apart to achieve optimal results. Once the initial series of treatments is complete, many patients enjoy the benefits for up to two years, with occasional touch-ups to maintain their rejuvenated look.

Following the procedure, it’s essential to commit to massaging the treated areas for five minutes a day, five times a day, for at least five days. The massage helps ensure the product spreads evenly and minimizes the risk of nodule formation. While some mild swelling or bruising may occur, these effects are temporary and can be treated with our recovery protocols.
