Your Initial Consultation
The process begins with a personalized consultation. Your provider will take the time to understand your goals, evaluate your facial anatomy, and explain how Sculptra works. They’ll also review your medical history and answer questions to help you make an informed decision about your treatment.
Preparing for Your Appointment
Most people require minimal preparation. However, your provider may recommend avoiding certain medications or supplements that could increase bruising. If you’ve had previous injectables, be sure to mention them during your visit.
The Sculptra Injection Process
A typical first session lasts 30–60 minutes and includes:
- Skin cleansing: The treatment area is cleaned thoroughly to reduce the risk of infection.
- Marking injection sites: Precise markings help guide accurate placement.
- Optional numbing cream: While many patients find Sculptra injections tolerable, a topical anesthetic can enhance comfort.
- Administering Sculptra: Your provider uses fine needles to inject the product just beneath the skin, targeting places where collagen support has diminished.
After Your First Session
Mild swelling, redness, or tenderness at injection sites is common and usually resolves within a few days. You’ll receive detailed aftercare instructions, which may include:
- Gently massaging treated areas.
- Avoiding strenuous activity for 24 hours.
- Staying out of excessive heat or direct sunlight until swelling subsides.
When to Expect Results
Some volume may be visible right after your appointment. However, Sculptra’s true results develop over several weeks as collagen production increases. Most patients opt for a series of sessions spaced a few weeks apart for the best outcomes.
