What Sculptra Addresses
It’s no secret that aging can cause the skin’s appearance to change, including:
- A loss of volume from lost fat under the skin, causing a gaunt, hollow look
- Increased wrinkles and fine lines caused by a decreased amount of collagen and elastin (the building blocks of the skin)
- Deepened expression lines from a life well lived
- Lackluster skin appearance and uneven skin tone
The Benefits of Sculptra
Sculptra is an FDA-approved bio-stimulant in the form of an injectable; it provides a gradual and natural-looking solution for enhancing and rejuvenating all facial features and is proven to provide a healthy glow and improved skin quality for adults of all ages!
Don’t wait until your collagen has decreased so much that your appearance has visibly changed—stay ahead of the curve and replenish collagen each year! Men and women as early as their twenties are enjoying the benefits of increased collagen production with Sculptra treatments in Milwaukee.
Using Sculptra injections, we place microscopic beads of poly-L-lactic acid at various depths in the tissue, depending on the area of the face. As the body processes the Sculptra, it stimulates new collagen growth!
New collagen growth translates to firmer, glowing skin, and a natural, more youthful appearance for all ages. We love its subtle and gradual approach to restoring facial volume.
Customized Treatment
A terrific benefit of Sculptra is how customizable the treatment is. But not every med spa takes the same approach to administering the injections.
At Aesthetics 360°, our expert Nurse Specialists customize treatment plans to suit the needs of each individual. We assess your facial structure, skin condition, and desired results before proceeding with treatment. This process is extremely important for getting the most out of your Sculptra treatment.
In Milwaukee, there are a lot of places where you can find someone to do your injectables. Make sure your injector provides education and safety as a priority and focuses on outcomes to achieve your goals.
Enhanced Collagen Production
Collagen is a protein that our body produces to maintain the skin’s elasticity and structure. As we age, our bodies produce less collagen. Our skin becomes a bit more lax, facial features may start to lose definition, and fine lines, folds, and wrinkles form as levels of collagen decrease. Sculptra is a proven longer-term solution for achieving a more youthful, yet extremely natural appearance.
Long-Lasting & Natural Results
Unlike temporary dermal fillers, Sculptra provides long-lasting structural support and refreshed, rejuvenated skin.
Additionally, because the collagen stimulated by Sculptra builds slowly and gradually, the results appear much more natural than results achieved by other dermal fillers.
The Difference Between Sculptra & Dermal Fillers
The formulas are different.
Yes, both Sculptra and dermal fillers are administered by injection. However, that is about where the similarities stop. Because Sculptra is not a “filler” but rather a bio-stimulant, it acts differently than dermal fillers made from hyaluronic acid. Instead of simply filling in the lines and wrinkles, Sculptra’s active ingredient, poly-L-lactic acid, stimulates the body’s natural production of collagen.
Sculptra results take more time to achieve.
The stimulation of collagen production extends the time between injection and noticeable results. This is different from traditional fillers, with which results are more immediate.
Sculptra induces the natural synthesis of collagen, but it takes time to build. This building process is why it may take between 3 and 6 months after injections to notice results.
However, this process does continue as long as poly-L-lactic acid remains in the injected areas.
But the results last longer.
One of the most remarkable features of Sculptra is the long duration of the results.
Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers such as Juvederm, Restylane and RHA offer immediate results, but do fade more quickly than Sculptra. This also means that the treatment lasts much longer than traditional dermal fillers, extending the total duration of the treatment timeline to as long as 2 years.
It’s also easier to control.
Because the results take time to build, this gives you and your Nurse Specialist plenty of time to plan ahead for future treatments, monitor the progression of your results over time, and make adjustments as needed.
Common Questions About Sculptra Treatments
How do I choose a Sculptra provider in Milwaukee?
Discovering the benefits about Sculptra is exciting, but it’s important to do your research before getting the treatment done.
Like any aesthetic treatment, Sculptra is only as effective as the person injecting it! Make sure you look for a qualified medical professional who regularly performs Sculptra treatments.
Your provider should invite you for an initial consultation to discuss your aesthetic concerns and ensure you are a candidate for Sculptra treatments.
During this time, you can also ask that provider to see their Before & After results. This will allow you to see their approach to using Sculptra to ensure they have the artistic ability to achieve what you’re looking for.
What areas does Sculptra treat?
Sculptra is designed to holistically treat all facial features, including the temples, cheeks and mid-face, smile lines, lower face, chin, jawline, and jowls.
This means that it can help reduce the appearance of common aesthetic concerns like:
- Nasolabial folds
- Loss of cheek bone projection
- Hollow cheeks
- Generalized facial volume loss
- Small chins
- Wrinkles, lines, & creases
- Depressed scars
- And thin skin
Am I a candidate for Sculptra?
While Sculptra is a great treatment solution for nearly anybody with a healthy immune system, there are a couple of reasons someone shouldn’t receive treatment.
Sculptra is not recommended for individuals who:
- Have a history of severe allergic reactions or have multiple severe allergies should not receive Sculptra treatments.
- Have a history of hypertrophic scarring, also known as keloid scars, should not receive treatment. These thick scars could present complications during the healing process.
- Are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
- Have recently had a chemical peel.
Because Sculptra results appear gradually and naturally over the course of approximately 6 months, there are many other treatments available to provide more immediate facial rejuvenation, such as dermal fillers, Botox, and laser skin rejuvenation! We will discuss your full treatment plan, and which treatments make sense to combine, during your initial consultation.
Do men get Sculptra treatments?
Absolutely! Because Sculptra takes a more natural approach to improving skin’s appearance, it is often a go-to for men who are wanting to simply look refreshed and healthy.
Are there any side effects of Sculptra?
Side effects of Sculptra treatment are minor and include redness, swelling, bruising, and slight pain or tenderness. Depending on the individual, effects will resolve in a few days to a couple of weeks.
How long does Sculptra last?
The results of Sculptra differ from person to person, but typically last as long as 2 years. Your experience could be different based on factors such as age, skin condition, lifestyle, and number of treatment sessions completed.
How do I maintain the results from my Sculptra treatments as long as possible?
Of course we can continue to extend the results of Sculptra with maintenance treatments. You might benefit from additional Sculptra injections on an annual basis. By replenishing the poly-L-lactic acid, we can keep the body producing the collagen that rejuvenates the skin and adds volume.
That said, one of the most important factors for maintaining the results of your Sculptra is your at-home skincare routine. It’s important to be consistent and use high-quality anti-aging products at home to ensure you get the most of Sculptra treatments in Milwaukee.

Is there downtime after a Sculptra treatment?
In Milwaukee, we advise all of those receiving Sculptra treatments that they should avoid applying make-up for a few hours after treatment. Otherwise, most are able to get back to their normal routine right away.
What is the difference between Sculptra and other collagen treatments?
You may have seen collagen listed on your skincare products—this can definitely be helpful. However, collagen creams do not fully penetrate to the dermis, so most topical treatments are effective as moisturizers that briefly improve the skin’s appearance.
Thinking about collagen supplements? While this may be tempting, in reality, the digestive system breaks down collagen proteins, making them ineffective when it comes to skin care.
