Sculptra® Baton Rouge

Sculptra is a biostimulatory injectable that helps your skin make more collagen, gradually smoothing lines, improving firmness, and enhancing glow for up to two years.

Science-Backed Confidence, Delivered with Warmth

We offer Sculptra in Baton Rouge at Unique Aesthetics & Wellness because it pairs proven science with a soft, natural finish. As the original FDA-approved poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA-SCA) collagen stimulator, Sculptra supports your skin’s foundation instead of simply “filling” lines—aligning with our philosophy of clear guidance, advanced tech, and results that feel authentically you.

What is Sculptra?

Adults begin losing about 1% of their collagen every year starting in their 20s. This decline leads to fine lines, laxity, and changes in facial contour.

Sculptra is a biostimulatory injectable made with poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA-SCA), a biodegradable compound that has been safely used in medical applications for decades. Once injected beneath the skin, it works in three key ways:

Acts as a temporary framework: Microparticles of PLLA-SCA create a supportive scaffold under the skin.
Stimulates collagen production: As the particles are absorbed, they activate fibroblasts (collagen-producing cells) to rebuild the skin’s inner structure.
Restores natural support: The new collagen network gradually improves firmness, volume, and skin quality, especially in the cheeks and along the jawline.

Unlike traditional fillers that simply add immediate volume, Sculptra encourages your body to restore itself from within.

SculptraFAQ

How many sessions will I need?

Most patients need about three treatment sessions, 4–6 weeks apart. The exact number depends on your age, collagen health, and treatment goals, which we’ll customize during your consultation.

When will I start to notice results?

Sculptra’s effects build gradually. Many people begin to see changes within 4–6 weeks, with optimal results visible after the full treatment series.

How long do Sculptra results last compared to other injectables?

Results can last up to 2 years—often longer than traditional fillers—because Sculptra rebuilds collagen rather than simply adding temporary volume.

What areas can Sculptra treat?

Sculptra is FDA-approved for use in the cheek region and for wrinkles such as smile and marionette lines. When injected strategically in the midface, it also improves jawline contour and overall facial firmness.

Who should avoid Sculptra?

You should avoid Sculptra if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, have a history of keloids or hypertrophic scarring, or are allergic to its ingredients. We also avoid treating areas with active infections, rashes, or sores.

What are the risks and side effects of Sculptra?

The most common side effects are temporary swelling, redness, tenderness, bruising, itching, or small bumps at the injection site. Rarely, larger nodules or discoloration may occur. We thoroughly review all safety information and monitor your treatment closely.

Will Sculptra make me look “overdone”?

No. Sculptra works gradually by stimulating your own collagen, so results look soft and natural. Most people will notice you look refreshed, not altered.

Is there any downtime after treatment?

Most clients resume daily activities immediately. Mild redness or swelling is common and typically resolves in a few days. We’ll provide simple aftercare instructions, including gentle massage, to ensure even distribution and optimal results.
