Sculptra
Sculptra is an injectable filler; made of Poly-L-lactic acid it is injected into the dermis and is ideal for replacing lost volume caused by ageing and plumping out facial folds. It can also be used to treat scars.
The voluminising effect is gradual and long-lasting and stimulates the build up of the body's own collagen to smooth out lines and wrinkles. It lasts longer than other fillers; for up to twelve to eighteen months.
