Sculptra® is an innovative and revolutionary treatment that stimulates your body’s natural collagen production to restore lost volume and promote a youthful appearance. Sculptra is primarily used to treat facial volume loss, which can result from aging, illness, or other factors. It can also be used to treat wrinkles, fine lines, and folds and improve skin texture and elasticity.
Sculptra in Kansas City is one of many dermal fillers that can help restore areas where fat and connective tissue have been lost. It can help give you more youthful-looking skin and decrease wrinkles and folds.

Sculptra® is the only FDA-approved facial injectable made with poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). It is a biocompatible, biodegradable synthetic material that stimulates your natural collagen production to help fill in areas where you have lost the underlying fat and connective tissue that helps support your skin. Unlike other dermal fillers, Sculptra does not contain any form of collagen, yet it can help fine wrinkles disappear and larger folds become more shallow and less noticeable.
Your body’s response to Sculptra is what slowly creates the natural appearing changes. Activating your skin’s natural regenerative process is the main method by which Sculptra works. It creates a framework, and it provides the proper stimulation to collagen-producing cells. Over a few months, you will notice how your face looks younger and your skin is glowing. Results from Sculptra treatments can last up to two years.
This treatment is administered through a series of injections to the targeted areas. Once injected, Sculptra works to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production, which gradually increases over time. This process results in a natural-looking, gradual improvement in skin texture and volume, with results that can last up to two years.
You will be happy to learn that our Sculptra appointments in Kansas City are quick, so they can easily fit into a busy schedule. All Sculptra treatments are done in our office with a topical anesthetic to help ease the sting of the injections. You can return to your usual activities immediately after your treatment.
Sculptra® can help with the changes that come with aging, and it can also be very helpful for people who have had a significant weight loss or illness that has appreciably decreased the amount of fat tissue on their body, including substantial changes in facial appearance. Adding volume and shape to your face can help considerably with your self-confidence.
It is never too late to start Sculptra treatments in Kansas City. Sometimes, a person will decide to begin Sculptra treatments in their 20’s, but this is not necessary to get great results. The stimulation of collagen and elastin production will happen at any age, and you will be able to see the transformational differences it can make in your appearance.
Sculptra adds something to your face that a facelift cannot. It addresses not only wrinkles but also skin quality. Because of this, many of our patients choose to have Sculptra injections after their facelift to rejuvenate their skin and keep it at its youngest.
Because Sculptra works slowly, it is not the best choice if you need quick results. Other fillers can give you the instant change that you may want to use first, but then you can also consider adding Sculptra to bring out even better changes over time.
Sculptra® in Kansas City is a fantastic option for so many reasons. It can help fill in areas where aging has made changes and improve your skin’s texture and appearance to give you a more youthful glow. Call our office to set up a consultation. Now is the time to make a change, so start your journey to a younger-looking face today.
