Give your Face a Lift that lasts!!

A new injectable called Sculptra has obtained FDA approval for smile lines. Europeans have enjoyed the cosmetic advantages of Sculptra for almost a decade, but Sculptra has finally received the green light from the FDA to treat facial sagging produced by the aging process.

Unlike other injectables that directly fills folds and lasts only 6 months to 12 months, Sculptra stimulates the body's own collagen to produce a natural and gradual lift to the soft tissues of the face and then lasts as long as two years!  One of the studies leading up to its approval showed that Sculptra-injected participants maintained results for up to 25 months, whereas participants receiving human-derived collagen injections saw the effects of their treatment wear off after three months.

Small lumps have been a side-effect concern with Sculptra, but most go away on their own. (Only one patient out of 233 in the clinical trials had to have a small lump surgically removed.)

Like all injectables, Sculptra should be administered by an experienced medical professional, who has training and experience in injectables, so ask your chosen doctor about his or her history.
