Gone are the days when the only way to dial back the years was through surgery. Today, we have an extensive toolkit that includes laser therapies and cosmetic injectables, which can make quick work of wrinkles, sagging skin, and loss of youthful volume in your face.
It’s no exaggeration to say that cosmetic injectables have changed the way we approach aging, which is reflected in the fact that there were more than 17 million cosmetic injectable treatments done in the United States in 2023 alone.
While our team at Rejuvchip prides itself in offering the best in cosmetic injectables, we’re especially pleased to offer Sculptra®, which delivers excellent results that can be measured in years, not months.
Here’s why Sculptra is making its way into so many beauty regimens.
To understand why Sculptra brings cosmetic injectables to the next level, it’s helpful to step back and review what we’re up against when it comes to aging in your face.
Two main forces impact aging in your skin:
Collagen is the most plentiful protein in your body, and it gives your tissues structure. The collagen in your skin is at its peak when you’re in your teens and 20s but starts to diminish as you get older. Collagen production declines by about 1% a year in adulthood.
Another issue that ages your skin is exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays over the years, which can break down collagen fibers in your skin.
So, between the natural loss of collagen and the breakdown of collagen due to exposure, your skin can quickly lose its elasticity and tone, leading to wrinkles, sagging skin, and loss of volume.
Most dermal fillers rely on hyaluronic acid (HA) to fill in deep lines, lift sagging skin, and add volume. And the HA does its job very well. The problem lies in the fact that HA is a natural substance that your body reabsorbs, so the clock can run out on your results within 6-12 months or less.
To provide longer-lasting results, we turn to Sculptra, which exchanges HA for poly-L-lactic acid. This active ingredient is a synthetic, biodegradable polymer that stimulates collagen production and creates a scaffold to which new collagen can adhere.
So, Sculptra works with your body to create more collagen that won’t be reabsorbed like HA fillers. Instead, Sculptra delivers results that can last two years or more.
This cosmetic injectable is ideal for several key areas on your face, including:
Since Sculptra rejuvenates collagen production, your skin is not only tighter and firmer in the treatment areas, but it also regains its youthful glow.
