Sculptra is a collagen biostimulator containing Poly L Lactic Acid – PLLA approved by the US FDA in 2004. Sculptra works by stimulating skin cells to produce new collagen and elastin. The process is gradual and continuous with visible results seen usually 1-3 months after a treatment. Results are long-lasting, with clinical studies showing results lasting over 2 years.
