Restore youthful volume and smooth out smile lines, hollow temples, sunken cheeks, and deep wrinkles with Sculptra at The Acacia House. This collagen-boosting injectable works gradually and naturally, revealing a refreshed, long-lasting result. If you’re ready for subtle rejuvenation that stands the test of time, Sculptra was made for you.

Rebuild your body’s natural collagen reserves

Sculptra is a biostimulatory injectable made with poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), formulated to gradually restore facial volume by stimulating your body’s collagen production. Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra doesn’t just fill—it rebuilds. It’s ideal for treating deep folds, sunken areas like cheeks and temples, and overall volume loss from aging. The results appear gradually over a few months and last up to two years.

Sculptra treats:

  • Deep nasolabial folds (smile lines)
  • Hollow or sunken cheeks
  • Volume loss in temples
  • Jawline laxity or sagging
  • Marionette lines around the mouth
  • Chin wrinkles or dimpling
  • Skin crepiness on the face
  • Subtle contour irregularities
  • Facial asymmetry from volume loss

How does Sculptra work?

Sculptra uses poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible compound that’s safely absorbed by the body over time. Once injected, it triggers a natural healing response, stimulating your skin to produce fresh collagen—the protein that keeps skin firm and plump.

Instead of adding instant volume, Sculptra rebuilds your skin’s structure from within. This takes a few months, but the results are smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin and can last up to two years.

Benefits of Sculptra:

  • Stimulates your body’s natural collagen production

Your complete Sculptra experience

Consultation

During your consultation, we’ll take the time to understand your goals, assess your facial structure, and determine if Sculptra is the right fit. This isn’t a rushed conversation—it’s a collaborative process where your provider will explain how Sculptra works, what to expect, and design a treatment plan just for you. If we feel another treatment would better serve your goals, we’ll guide you there honestly.

Treatment

On treatment day, your skin will be cleansed, and a topical numbing cream may be applied to ensure comfort. Sculptra is skillfully injected beneath the skin using a fine needle or cannula. The product is placed strategically to stimulate collagen in the areas where volume loss or skin laxity has occurred. Most appointments take about 45–60 minutes, depending on the number of areas being treated. You’ll be able to resume normal activities right after.

Recovery

You might notice mild swelling, redness, or tenderness at the injection sites—these usually fade within a few days. Most clients return to normal activities right away. You’ll be instructed to massage the treated areas for five minutes, five times a day, for five days to ensure even distribution. There’s no required downtime, but avoid strenuous workouts for a day or two.

Results

Sculptra doesn’t work overnight—and that’s a good thing. The results appear gradually as your skin produces more collagen, with the full effect becoming visible over 8-12 weeks. You’ll see a fresher, more lifted, and naturally youthful version of yourself—without looking “done.” With proper care, your results can last two years or more.

Sculptra FAQs

How Many Treatments Will I Need?

Most people need 2-3 sessions spaced about 4-6 weeks apart. We’ll create a custom plan during your consultation.

When Will I See the Results?

Results develop gradually over 8-12 weeks as your body builds collagen. It’s a subtle, natural transformation—not instant volume.

Does It Hurt?

Most clients experience minimal discomfort. We use numbing cream and gentle techniques to keep you comfortable throughout the treatment.

Will I Look Overfilled?

No. Sculptra enhances your natural features over time. You’ll look refreshed—not puffy or overdone.
