A natural way to restore volume over time.
See FAQsAs signs of facial ageing begin to show, such as volume loss, deeper smile lines or looser skin, we know how difficult it can be to feel like yourself. We also know that many of us want the most natural results possible, without looking overfilled fake. At Alisha Louise Aesthetics, we take pride in bringing our patients the latest, innovative solutions to help you feel more like yourself. Sculptra® is the latest technology and helps improve skin firmness, elasticity, and overall quality in the most natural way, achieving long-lasting results.
Sculptra® is an advanced injectable treatment designed to stimulate your body’s natural collagen production. Unlike traditional dermal fillers that provide instant volume, Sculptra works gradually to rebuild skin structure from within, delivering subtle, natural-looking facial rejuvenation over time.
It is a gradual treatment, with results more apparent over a period of time, and is therefore more appealing to patients seeking a more natural, long-lasting approach rather than the immediate results achieved with dermal filler. Patients typically require 2-3 treatments every 4-6 weeks with improvements typically peaking at 3-6 months depending on the individual. Sculptra can also be combined with other treatments to achieve different results depending on individual goals, to be discussed at your initial in-depth consultation where we will work with you to put a treatment plan together, specifically tailored to you.

Sculptra is a cutting-edge injectable biostimulator treatment designed to gradually restore facial volume and reduce wrinkles by stimulating the skin's natural collagen production. The active ingredient, poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), helps to rebuild the skin's structural framework over time from within, resulting in a more youthful and natural appearance.
Results from Sculptra develop over time, so you should not expect immediate results following treatment. Typically, patients begin to notice improvements in skin texture and volume within a few weeks of treatment, with full results becoming apparent after a series of sessions, usually completed over a few months.
As with other aesthetic treatments, the number of sessions required depends on the individual and their concerns and goals. Generally, patients need about two to three sessions, spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
The significant benefit of Sculptra is its long-lasting results. The improvements achieved can last up to two years or more, depending on factors such as age, skin condition, and lifestyle.
Unlike traditional dermal fillers, which provide immediate results by adding volume directly under the skin, Sculptra works gradually by stimulating the body's natural collagen production. This results in a more natural-looking, long-lasting improvement in facial volume and skin texture. Dermal fillers are hyaluronic acid and provide immediate results, whereas Sculptra is a biostimulator, stimulating your body's natural collagen production.
This procedure is generally not painful but can be slightly uncomfortable. We use lidocane solution prior to treatment and a cannula to inject for maximum patient comfort.
There may be some slight swelling, redness, bruising, pain, or small lumps under the skin. Side effects are mild and will settle quickly.
Yes, Sculptra can be combined with other aesthetics and skincare treatments such as dermal fillers, anti-wrinkle injections, and laser treatments to enhance overall results. At your consultation, we can work with you to design a bespoke treatment plan to address your concerns and goals.
