Age Gracefully
As you age, your body produces less and less collagen and elastin—two structural proteins that keep your skin strong, supple, and flexible. With this decline, your skin is more susceptible to the hands of time, and you notice more and more fine lines, wrinkles, and skin sagging. While these are healthy signs of aging, they are not always something that you readily embrace in the mirror.
Sculptra in Lawrence uses poly-L-lactic acid to restore your body’s production of collagen and elastin, effectively and gracefully delaying and even reversing the aging process. The best part? You never run the risk of looking “overdone” or “unnatural” because this treatment uses your body’s natural abilities to keep your skin firm and tight. Your face regains a youthful appearance over time, with this transformation lasting for two years.

Frequently Asked Questions
The number of sessions you need depends on the outcome you want to achieve and the health of your skin. For Sculptra in Kansas City, we usually recommend at least 2 to 3 sessions spaced several weeks apart.
It’s easy to compare Sculptra with dermal fillers. After all, they are both injectables that target wrinkles and skin laxity. But their difference lies in the benefits.
Sculptra works gradually to stimulate collagen production and support your skin’s underlying structure. You’ll enjoy natural, subtle enhancements that last for up to 2 years.
Dermal fillers immediately add volume using hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in your body that retains moisture to keep your skin plump. Just like collagen and elastin, your body produces less HA with age, contributing to the formation of lines and wrinkles.
For best results, we recommend pairing your Sculptra and dermal filler injectables. This gives you instant volume with long-lasting support.
It takes a couple of months to see full results, but after a few weeks you’ll notice gradual and graceful improvements in your skin’s texture. With such natural and subtle enhancements, no one will ever wonder if you’ve had “work done.” You’ll just look like yourself, only more refreshed and revitalized.
Avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements for a few days before and after your Sculptra treatment to reduce the risk of bruising.
Follow the 5-5-5 Rule: Massage the injected area for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days in a row. This helps evenly distribute the poly-L-lactic acid. After touching your face, remember to thoroughly cleanse your skin.
