STEP 1
Sculptra microparticles (PLLA) are injected in a diluted solution into targeted areas. Your provider places them strategically across the treatment zone not as single-point deposits.
Sessions take 30–45 minutes each
STEP 2
The PLLA particles act as a bio-stimulant. Your body recognizes them and initiates a mild, localized healing response the same response that triggers collagen synthesis.
Begins immediately at cellular level
STEP 3
Over 4–6 weeks, your body deposits new collagen around the PLLA particles. As they dissolve safely, the collagen remains. Results continue to improve for up to 6 months after your final session.
Full results at 8–12+ weeks per session
POLY-L-LACTIC ACID
Stimulates your own collagen production the result is biological, not additive. Results appear gradually over 4–12 weeks and continue to improve after treatment.
2+ years
HYALURONIC ACID
Physically adds volume beneath the skin. Results are immediate and visible same day. Fully reversible with hyaluronidase ideal for targeted feature enhancement.
6–18 months depending on product and area
CALCIUM HYDROXYLAPATITE
Combines immediate structural volume with collagen stimulation. Preferred for body applications, jawline, neck, and hands. Not reversible in the same way as HA fillers.
12–18+ months
Sculptra can be used across a wide range of face and body areas. Your provider will assess which areas have experienced the most collagen loss and design a treatment plan accordingly.

Sculptra rebuilds collagen over months for a sustained structural result. HA fillers address immediate targeted volume lips, under-eye, specific contours. Combined, they deliver both now and later.
Sculptra restores volume and structure lost to collagen decline. Neurotoxins (Botox, Dysport, Daxxify) relax the muscles driving dynamic expression lines. Combined in a single appointment, the most comprehensive non-surgical rejuvenation available.
For patients addressing both volume loss and skin laxity, Sculptra rebuilds collagen density from within while Sofwave's ultrasound energy tightens and lifts the overlying tissue. A sequenced protocol for comprehensive rejuvenation.
Most patients need 3–4 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. The exact number depends on the degree of volume loss and the areas being treated. Your provider will assess your response after each session and adjust accordingly.
Initial changes begin around weeks 4–8, with the most visible improvement typically between weeks 8–12. Results continue developing for up to 6 months after your final session and last 2+ years for most patients.
Sculptra has been FDA-approved since 2004 with an extensive safety record. Common side effects temporary swelling, bruising, redness, tenderness typically resolve within a few days. Nodule formation is a rare risk with improper technique; Aviva providers follow clinical dilution and placement protocols that minimize this risk.
Yes and often strategically should be. Sculptra is frequently combined with neurotoxins for dynamic lines, HA fillers for immediate feature-specific volume, and skin resurfacing treatments like Morpheus8 or Sofwave for a comprehensive rejuvenation plan.
Depends on your goal and timeline. If you want immediate results or targeted feature enhancement, traditional HA fillers may be the better choice. If you’re addressing broader facial volume loss and want the longest-lasting result, Sculptra is worth serious consideration. Your provider will give you an honest recommendation at consultation.
Sculptra is priced per vial. Most patients require multiple vials per session and multiple sessions your total investment depends on your individual plan. Because results last 2+ years, the cost-per-month value compares favorably to annual HA filler maintenance. Book a consultation for a personalized quote.
