Sculptra Facial Rejuvenation Marylebone

Sculptra offers an advanced, non-surgical approach to anti-ageing and facial rejuvenation by working naturally with your skin. Unlike traditional dermal fillers that provide instant volume, Sculptra is a collagen-stimulating injectable treatment designed to gradually restore lost facial volume and improve skin quality over time.

At our Marylebone clinic in London’s medical district, Sculptra is expertly used to treat facial volume loss, enhance skin texture, and support long-term collagen production. This innovative treatment helps achieve natural-looking, long-lasting results for patients seeking subtle yet effective facial rejuvenation.

As the skin ages, collagen production naturally declines, leading to skin laxity, deep wrinkles, uneven texture, and age-related volume loss. Sculptra works within the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating your body’s own collagen production to restore structure, firmness, and facial volume in a gradual, long-lasting way.

What is Sculptra ? / How does it work

Although Sculptra is an injectable treatment, it works very differently from traditional dermal fillers. Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers are designed to provide instant volume by physically filling targeted areas of the face. While this delivers immediate results, it does not address underlying collagen loss or support long-term skin rejuvenation.

In contrast, Sculptra uses poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible and biodegradable synthetic substance that works by stimulating the skin’s natural regenerative processes. Rather than acting as a conventional filler, Sculptra triggers collagen production within the deeper layers of the skin.

As the PLLA particles are gradually absorbed by the body, new collagen is produced, helping to restore facial volume, improve skin firmness, and enhance overall skin quality. Results develop progressively over several weeks, creating subtle, natural-looking facial rejuvenation that continues to improve and can last significantly longer than traditional dermal fillers.

Are You an Ideal Candidate for Sculptra Injections?

Sculptra injections are ideal for individuals aged 30 and over who are experiencing facial volume loss, reduced skin firmness, or the development of deep folds and wrinkles. This collagen-stimulating treatment is particularly suited for patients who prefer gradual, long-lasting facial rejuvenation over instant but short-term results from traditional dermal fillers.

Sculptra is commonly used to treat the following areas:

Cheeks – to restore lost volume and enhance natural facial contours
Temples – to replenish volume in hollowed or sunken areas
Jawline – to improve definition and address skin laxity
Nasolabial folds (smile lines) – to soften deep lines around the mouth
Marionette lines – to reduce sagging and support lower-face structure

This injectable treatment is suitable for a wide range of skin types and skin tones. It is particularly effective for individuals seeking to restore facial structure while maintaining a completely natural appearance.

What is Sculptra?
Sculptra is a collagen-stimulating injectable treatment made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) that gradually restores facial volume and improves skin quality by stimulating the body’s natural collagen production.

How does Sculptra work?
Sculptra works by triggering collagen regeneration in the deeper layers of the skin. As the PLLA particles are absorbed, new collagen forms, resulting in a gradual and natural-looking facial rejuvenation.

How long do Sculptra results last?
Results from Sculptra can last up to two years or longer, making it a long-lasting alternative to traditional dermal fillers.

How many Sculptra treatments will I need?
Most patients require a course of 2–3 treatments, spaced several weeks apart, depending on the extent of facial volume loss and individual treatment goals.

When can I expect to see results from Sculptra?
Results develop gradually over several weeks, with continued improvement as collagen production increases.

Is Sculptra better than dermal fillers?
Sculptra is not better or worse, just different. It is ideal for long-term collagen stimulation and volume restoration, while dermal fillers provide instant volume correction.
