Sculptra
Collagen Reimagined
An FDA-approved biostimulator that awakens your skin's own collagen — delivering a natural, radiant lift that lasts up to two years.
Not a Filler. A Rebuilder.

Sculptra FAQs — Answers from Our Thornhill Clinic
Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable containing poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA-SCA) — a biocompatible, biodegradable compound derived from natural plant sources. Rather than simply filling wrinkles, it stimulates your body’s own collagen production to restore facial volume and structure from within.
Traditional fillers add instant volume using substances like hyaluronic acid. Sculptra takes a fundamentally different approach — it triggers your natural collagen-building process, producing gradual, long-lasting results that look and feel authentically yours.
Most patients achieve optimal results with 2–3 treatment sessions spaced about 4–6 weeks apart. Your practitioner at Shemirani Beauty Clinic will design a personalized plan based on your goals and the degree of volume loss.
Improvements begin appearing as early as one month post-treatment and continue developing over the following weeks. The gradual nature of results means your transformation looks completely natural — no one will suspect a procedure.
Clinical studies confirm results lasting up to two years or more, with 95% of patients reporting maintained improvement. Periodic touch-ups can help sustain your refreshed appearance long-term.
Most patients report only mild discomfort. A topical anesthetic is typically applied before treatment, and Sculptra is mixed with lidocaine to minimize sensation during injection. The procedure is well-tolerated by the majority of patients.
Common side effects include temporary swelling, redness, tenderness, and bruising at injection sites — typically resolving within a few days. Small, non-visible nodules may occasionally form beneath the skin. Your practitioner will discuss all potential risks during your consultation.
Sculptra is not recommended for individuals with allergies to its ingredients, active skin infections in the treatment area, a history of keloid scarring, or those who are pregnant or breastfeeding. A thorough consultation will determine if Sculptra is right for you
