Why it’s important to select a surgeon who knows precisely where to target Scupltra injections
As with all dermal injectables, it is important to trust your face with a provider that has experience and extensive knowledge of anatomy. While the procedure is intended to be relatively simple and extremely quick, in the wrong hands, this type of injection can deliver less than optimal results. Dr. DeLuca personally administers all cosmetic injections. Why? Because anatomical knowledge, skill and years of experience lead to better results and fewer complications to ensure your risk of side effects are minimized while maximizing beautiful results.
How do Scupltra injections fill in facial wrinkles & folds?
Sculptra injectable gel is a “next-generation” dermal filler that provides volume and is used to treat wrinkles and folds resulting from a loss of volume beneath the surface of the skin such as perioral lines and nasolabial folds (lines around your mouth and nose). Sculptra restores your skin’s volume for a smooth, natural look and feel. It is not a quick fix and often takes several treatments to achieve long-lasting results. Many men and women prefer the subtle and gradual anti-aging process to the abrupt and dramatic results that occur with other dermal injectables such as Botox or Juvederm.
Sculptra mimics the hydrating and lifting effect of your skin’s natural collagen, which keeps the skin hydrated and elastic. It fills in and smoothes away facial lines and acne scars, other skin contour deficiencies, and lost volume.
