Our faces change over time and you may get to a stage where you feel that you would like to go back a few years to younger looking skin with less wrinkles and more definition.
There are many options available to alter this, but most of them are surgical which can be expensive and require a lot of ‘down time’ whilst you recuperate. The after effects of facial surgical procedures, such as bruising and swelling, can also be noticeable to others for some weeks or even months.
Filler versus Scalpel
There an alternative though and it comes in the form of a vial of liquid instead of a scalpel. This incredible treatment is called Sculptra. Sculptra has been available in Europe since 1999 and normally requires only three treatments to achieve a result the effects of which can lasts up to two years.
Sculptra smoothes out wrinkles and lines and helps to restore volume to areas of the face as a result of the natural ageing process. The treatment normally only takes about 30 minutes to perform and you can return home immediately afterwards.
Sculptra is a synthetic material called Poly-L-lactic acid, which is a biocompatible compound which is eventually dissolved into the body.
The results become evident over the course of a few short weeks after treatment, and you can go about your normal daily life and activities immediately afterwards, knowing that Sculptra is doing its work on improving and rejuvenating your appearance.
