How does Sculptra differ from traditional dermal fillers?
Sculptra works gradually by stimulating collagen production, resulting in natural-looking and long-lasting results, whereas traditional fillers provide immediate volume enhancement.

Patients are advised to avoid excessive sun exposure, saunas, and extreme temperatures immediately following Sculptra treatment to minimize swelling and discomfort. Additionally, gentle massage of the treated areas may be recommended to ensure even distribution of the product.
