SCULPTRA

Sculptra is an injectable collagen biostimulator containing poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). It works by stimulating your body's natural collagen production to gradually improve facial volume loss and skin structure.

Traditional hyaluronic acid fillers provide immediate volume. Sculptra works progressively by stimulating collagen production, creating gradual, natural-looking improvements over time.

At NECTA, we offer Sculptra for facial rejuvenation and selected neck concerns, following a medical assessment. Neck treatment may be outside the product's licensed indications.

Most patients require a course of approximately 2–3 sessions, usually spaced several weeks apart. The number of treatments depends on your individual needs and treatment goals.

Sculptra works gradually. Improvements typically develop over several weeks to months as new collagen forms. Results are not immediate.

Results may last up to two years or longer in some patients, although individual results vary and maintenance treatments may be recommended.

Most patients can return to their usual activities relatively quickly. Temporary swelling, redness, tenderness and bruising are common. You will receive individual aftercare instructions.

As with any injectable treatment, risks include bruising, swelling, infection and the development of lumps or nodules, including delayed nodules. Rare but serious complications can also occur and will be discussed during consultation.

Sculptra may be unsuitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, with active infection or inflammation in the treatment area, certain allergies, or a history of hypertrophic scarring or keloid formation. Medical suitability is assessed individually.

Yes. All Sculptra treatments at NECTA begin with a medical consultation with our Nurse Prescriber to assess your skin, discuss realistic outcomes and create a personalised treatment plan.
