PRE & POST CARE | SCULPTRA
The following are contraindications with your Sculptra appointment. Please call the office if any apply, we will need to clear it with the provider or reschedule your appointment.
PRECARE | SCULPTRA
You will be completing a treatment using a Collagen/Bio Stimulating product called Sculptra. Your cosmetic practitioner has advised you of appropriate aftercare instructions to follow. A written outline of those instructions is available here for your convenience.
Please note that Sculptra is a powder that must be reconstituted and suspended in sterile water before injecting it into the skin. Therefore, it is important to remember that immediately after your treatment; you will feel full in the areas treated which is a direct effect of the water injected into those areas. This fullness will completely disappear over several hours once the treatment is completed and the areas treated will then look exactly the same as they did prior to having the treatment. Collagen stimulation will naturally start to occur approximately 8-12 weeks after the treatment and will reach a peak within the first 6 months. Please do not equate the lack of immediate result with a treatment failure – the results are delayed and will be slowly increasing over time. Initial treatments will require 2-3 sessions of Sculptra injections.
