How Sculptra treatment can turn back time for Cobble Hill Brooklyn, NY patients
Men and women unhappy with the gradual signs of aging in the face, including the formation of fine lines and wrinkles and loss of natural volume, may incorrectly believe that plastic surgeries such as the facelift are their only options for restoring their youthful look. Fortunately, there are many non-surgical solutions for patients to consider as well. Dr. Tatiana Khrom of the KHROM MEDSPA & WELLNESS is pleased to offer solutions for volume loss in the face, including Sculptra injections.
What is Sculptra?
Sculptra Aesthetic is one of many cosmetic injectables available for patients in Cobble Hill and Brooklyn, NY, to combat facial volume loss. This particular injectable uses poly-L-lactic acid to improve volume in the face by stimulating the production of collagen and elastin that is naturally lost as patients enter into their 30’s and 40’s. The injectable will improve fullness while smoothing away facial wrinkles and folds due to collagen loss and the development of skin laxity.
Sculptra aesthetic should be injected into the deep dermis and gives the appearance of an immediate correction of the defect. Massage is an important part of post treatment care. Massage at the injection site will allow for a more even distribution of PLLA. Within days, the aqueous components of Sculptra aesthetic are absorbed and natural swelling resolves, resulting in the temporary reappearance of the defect. But microparticles of PLLA the main component of Sculptra aesthetic begin working within the deep dermis to replace lost collagen and reinforce skin structure. As microparticles of PLLA are absorbed, a collagen framework is provided to gradually restore volume. This results in the smoothing out of shallow to deep nasolabial fold contour deficiencies and other facial wrinkles in which the deep dermal grid pattern crosshatch injection technique is appropriate and which can result in a more refined appearance that can last up to two years. In time it is theorised that an increase in collagen deposition occurs correcting structural deficiencies caused by collagen loss and fat atrophy.
