Collagen Regeneration From Within
Sculptra is an advanced, FDA-approved injectable treatment that stimulates your body’s natural collagen production to restore facial volume and firmness. Unlike traditional fillers that add volume instantly, Sculptra works gradually, strengthening your skin’s underlying structure for long-lasting results that can improve over time.
At L’Elite MediSpa, we use Sculptra to help clients achieve subtle, natural-looking rejuvenation—smoothing wrinkles and enhancing contours without surgery. Whether you’re looking to correct volume loss or soften deep facial folds, this treatment offers a non-invasive path to a refreshed, youthful appearance that can last up to two years.

How It Works
Sculptra contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible substance that stimulates collagen production deep within the dermis. Once injected, the microparticles are gradually absorbed by the body, triggering new collagen growth. This natural regeneration process strengthens skin structure over time, improving volume and elasticity for long-term facial rejuvenation.
-
What It Treats
Sculptra is ideal for treating deep facial wrinkles, volume loss in the cheeks or temples, smile lines, marionette lines, and chin wrinkles. It can also subtly lift and contour the face, making it a favorite for clients looking for gradual, natural improvements without the “overfilled” look.

Benefits
Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, Sculptra offers results that build gradually and last significantly longer—often up to two years. It enhances your skin’s texture, restores facial structure, and helps prevent further volume loss. With a series of treatments, Sculptra delivers youthful radiance that looks and feels completely natural.
-
The Process
Your provider will begin with a consultation and facial assessment. After cleansing the area, Sculptra is injected using a fine needle into targeted zones. The procedure is quick—typically 30–60 minutes—and involves minimal discomfort. You will be asked to massage the area gently at home for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, and 5 days a week to aid in even distribution and collagen stimulation.
-
Results & Recovery
You may notice subtle plumping right away, but true results develop gradually over the next several weeks as collagen production increases. Mild swelling or tenderness may occur, but downtime is minimal. A typical treatment plan includes 2–3 sessions spaced a few weeks apart for optimal, long-lasting improvement.
-
Preventative
Sculptra not only treats existing volume loss but also helps prevent future signs of aging by reinforcing your skin’s foundational support. Regular maintenance sessions can preserve collagen production and keep your features lifted and defined for years to come.

Sculptra for Subtle, Natural-Looking Results
If you’re concerned about looking “overdone,” Sculptra offers a gradual, understated alternative to traditional fillers. It works with your body to rebuild what’s been lost over time—collagen.
Ideal for those seeking slow, steady improvement, Sculptra enhances your natural beauty by improving contours and structure without altering your expressions. It’s an excellent choice for men and women who want lasting results that don’t look like you’ve had anything done.

Your Questions, Expertly Answered
Whether you’re looking to restore youthful volume or support your skin’s structure naturally, Sculptra offers results that evolve beautifully over time. Still have questions? We’ve answered the most common ones to help you feel fully confident before your appointment.
Sculptra is a collagen stimulator, not a typical dermal filler. While most fillers use hyaluronic acid to provide instant volume, Sculptra works over time to stimulate your body’s own collagen production. This leads to natural, long-lasting volume and skin improvement that can last up to two years. It’s ideal for clients who want a more subtle, progressive transformation that supports the skin’s foundation from within.
Most clients require a series of 2 to 3 Sculptra sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. The number of treatments depends on your age, degree of volume loss, and aesthetic goals. Your provider will create a personalized plan during your consultation. Full results appear gradually over several months, with collagen production continuing long after the last injection.
Downtime is minimal. You may experience mild swelling, tenderness, or bruising at the injection site, which typically subsides within a few days. We recommend avoiding strenuous activity for 24 hours. To support optimal collagen stimulation, you’ll be asked to gently massage the area for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days following each session.
Sculptra results can last up to 2 years or more, depending on your skin and maintenance routine. Because it works by stimulating collagen, improvements are gradual and long-lasting. Many clients schedule touch-ups annually to maintain their desired look. The treatment helps prevent ongoing collagen loss, so you may find your skin remains firmer and more youthful over time.
Yes, Sculptra is FDA-approved and safe for all skin types. It’s most commonly used in clients aged 30–65 who are experiencing moderate to severe facial volume loss. However, it can be used earlier for collagen preservation or later in life as part of a facial rejuvenation plan. Because Sculptra is biocompatible and biodegradable, it’s safely absorbed by the body over time.
You can receive Sculptra at any of our L’Elite MediSpa locations—Brooklyn, Harlem, and Melville. Our skilled injectors specialize in natural-looking facial rejuvenation using advanced techniques and personalized care. Whether you’re new to injectables or seeking a long-term alternative to traditional fillers, we’ll help you achieve refreshed, youthful results that last.
