Sculptra (Biostimulator)
Sculptra: deep regeneration and progressive rejuvenation
In contemporary aesthetic medicine, rejuvenation is no longer based solely on filling or tightening, but on stimulating the skin's natural capacity to regenerate. Collagen biostimulators such as Sculptra represent one of the most advanced and elegant solutions to progressively and lastingly restore facial firmness, skin quality and volume.
What is Sculptra and how does it work?
Sculptra is a biostimulator composed of poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible and resorbable substance that acts on the deep layers of the skin. Unlike treatments that provide immediate volume, its mechanism stimulates the natural production of collagen — the protein responsible for skin firmness, elasticity and structure.
After application, a gradual process of dermal regeneration begins, improving skin density from within and achieving a global, natural and sustained rejuvenation.
Indications
Sculptra is especially indicated for volume loss and sagging associated with ageing:
- Recovery of lost facial volume
- Improvement of sagging in face and neck
- Definition of facial oval
- Attenuation of deep folds (nasolabial)
- Improvement of skin quality, density and texture
- Global rejuvenation without altering features
The procedure
Deep-layer skin infiltrations following a carefully planned medical protocol. Session duration: 30–45 minutes. Generally 2–3 sessions, spaced several weeks apart. Outpatient procedure with immediate return to normal routine.

One of Sculptra's distinctive features is the progressiveness of its results:
- Initial improvement in the weeks following treatment
- Visible results from 4–6 weeks
