Sculptra revitalizes your skin by stimulating collagen production, leading to smoother and firmer skin over time. Unlike other treatments, its gradual results appear natural and long-lasting.
As skin ages, it naturally loses collagen, the protein responsible for its firmness and structure. Over time, this leads to visible changes: deeper smile lines, marionette lines, and hollowing in the cheek region. At Pure Beauty Medical Spa, we offer Sculptra, an injectable treatment made with poly-L-lactic acid, to help you restore facial volume and stimulate your body’s own collagen production over time.
Unlike hyaluronic acid dermal fillers, Sculptra is a collagen stimulator, working gradually beneath the surface of the skin to rebuild what time has taken away. This means natural-looking results that emerge over several months and last well beyond most other cosmetic procedures. With locations in Newport Beach and Rancho Santa Margarita, our licensed aesthetic providers deliver every treatment with clinical precision and concierge-level care.
Deep creases and folds occur naturally over time and are made more serious by genetics and lifestyle. Sun exposure, environmental toxins, smoking, and diet all affect the health and suppleness of your skin. Natural skin volume loss causes thinning of the skin tissue, leading to sagging skin, facial folds, and a lackluster complexion. Sculptra is an innovative filler that works differently from all others on the market. Rather than adding volume with a hyaluronic gel, the filler works to trigger natural cell growth and an increase in collagen production to firm and lift skin.
The Magic of Sculptra: It's All in the Formula
Sculptra is an FDA-approved filler with an active ingredient called poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). This acid occurs naturally in the body, and the synthetic version in Sculptra works to trigger collagen production, while the gel brings immediate volume. Sculptra injections work to create thicker, more youthful, firm skin in the cheeks, smile lines, and on the chin in the most natural, refreshed way.
At your appointment, a topical anesthetic is applied to the treatment area to minimize discomfort. Your provider will then administer Sculptra injections into targeted injection sites (typically in areas with volume loss, such as the cheeks, temples, or around the mouth).
Each session takes about 30–45 minutes. Most patients require a series of treatments (usually three injections over a few months) to achieve the desired results. After the procedure, you may be advised to gently massage the treated areas and use an ice pack to minimize swelling.
You can return to your usual activities shortly after your initial treatment, though we recommend avoiding facials or strenuous exercise for 24 hours.
Sculptra is ideal for treating:
While it is not a replacement for all other fillers, many patients choose Sculptra for its long-term, regenerative approach to aging.
Sculptra offers a refined, subtle way to restore a more youthful appearance without looking “done.” Because the treatment stimulates your body to produce collagen, the improvement comes from within, creating structural support for smoother, firmer, and more volumized skin.
The gradual nature of the treatment means no dramatic changes overnight, but rather a soft and steady enhancement that feels authentic to you. And with results that may last over two years, Sculptra offers one of the longest-lasting solutions available in aesthetic medicine.
You may be an ideal candidate for Sculptra if you have mild to moderate creases and folds due to facial aging. You should be a healthy candidate with realistic expectations for your injections. It’s well-suited for individuals looking to support their skin’s structure over time and improve skin thickness and firmness.
Sculptra is not recommended for those with autoimmune disorders, active skin infections, or anyone seeking fast, dramatic changes. A consultation with a licensed aesthetic provider at Pure Beauty can help determine if Sculptra is the right fit for your goals.
After Sculptra injections, some redness, swelling, or mild bruising at the injection sites is normal and typically resolves within a few days. We recommend using an ice pack intermittently for the first 24 hours and gently massaging the treated area for five minutes, five times a day, for five days as directed by your provider.
You can return to normal activities right away, but avoid facials, excessive sun exposure, or high-intensity workouts for 24–48 hours post-treatment.
Sculptra stimulates the body to produce new collagen over time. While you won’t see immediate results, you’ll gradually begin to notice improvements in volume, texture, and firmness within 4 to 6 weeks. Most patients achieve final results after a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart.
In clinical studies, many patients continued to see improvement for up to two years, making Sculptra one of the most durable options for treating aging skin and facial volume loss.
With over 16 years of trusted care in Orange County, Pure Beauty Medical Spa has earned a reputation for integrity, safety, and natural-looking results. Every Sculptra treatment is performed by a licensed aesthetic provider with expertise in both the science of collagen stimulation and the art of facial balance.
