What is Sculptra and how does it work?

Sculptra® is an FDA-approved injectable made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible compound that stimulates your body’s natural collagen production.

Unlike traditional fillers that simply "fill in" wrinkles, Sculptra works gradually to rebuild facial volume by encouraging your skin to regenerate lost collagen. This makes it a regenerative or bio-stimulator treatment rather than a direct volume filler.

Over a few months, your skin structure improves as collagen builds, leaving you with smoother, firmer, and more youthful contours.

What areas can be treated with Sculptra?

Sculptra is highly versatile and can treat several areas with volume loss or collagen depletion, including:

• Cheeks and mid-face
• Temples
• Jawline and chin
• Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
• Marionette lines
• Buttocks (for non-surgical BBL)
• Décolletage and neck (off-label use)

At LegacyMD, we most commonly use Sculptra for facial rejuvenation and overall facial contouring in West Miami and Coral Gables patients looking for long-term results.

How long do Sculptra results last?

Sculptra results typically last between 18 and 24 months. Because it stimulates your own collagen, results improve over time and last much longer than traditional fillers.

Some patients even report seeing benefits up to 30 months post-treatment, especially when following recommended maintenance sessions.

What can I expect during Sculptra treatment?

The treatment process at LegacyMD includes:

1. Consultation: Dr. Hernandez Loy evaluates your facial structure and goals.
2. Preparation: The area is cleansed, and a topical anesthetic may be applied.
3. Injection: Sculptra is injected into targeted areas using a fine needle or cannula.
4. Massage: Gentle massage ensures even distribution.
5. Aftercare: You'll be advised to massage the treated area 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days ("5-5-5 Rule").

Each session lasts about 30–45 minutes, and most patients return to normal activities the same day.

How many Sculptra sessions will I need?

Most patients need 2–3 sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, depending on:

• Age
• Degree of volume loss
• Treatment area
• Desired results

During your consultation, we’ll create a customized plan based on your facial anatomy and goals.

What is the cost of Sculptra at LegacyMD?

At LegacyMD, Sculptra is priced at $600 per vial. The number of vials required depends on the area(s) treated and the extent of correction desired.

Typical Treatment Plan:

• Mild volume loss: 1–2 vials per session
• Moderate to severe volume loss: 2–3+ vials per session
• Full face contouring: 3–5 vials over several sessions

We offer package pricing and membership discounts, especially for combination treatments.

Who is a good candidate for Sculptra?

You may be a great candidate for Sculptra if you:

• Are noticing sagging, hollowing, or facial volume loss
• Prefer gradual, natural-looking improvements
• Want long-term collagen stimulation
• Are in overall good health and not pregnant or breastfeeding
• Are not seeking instant "plumping" results (like with lip fillers)

LegacyMD patients in Westchester and Coral Gables often choose Sculptra as part of a non-surgical facelift approach.
