Sculpting the future
Sculptra – An exciting era in collegentic technology
Before
After
When it comes to skin, a common concern of patients aged 39-45 is matching up the way they look with the way they feel. Place the control back into the hands of your patients to manage the effects of skin ageing with Sculptra.
As skin ages, the natural loss of collagen leads to thinner and structurally weakened skin. 1,2 Sculptra activates the body’s natural ability to produce collagen, restoring the skin’s structure and renewing its natural firmness. 3-7
When choosing a treatment, patients find long-lasting results more important than how quickly those results appear. Dr Munir Somji explains why he likes using Sculptra with his patients: “I find Sculptra to be a unique injectable bio-stimulant that can be injected in a multi-layer fashion to yield individualised results for patients of a wide age range.
“I see Sculptra as a tool to address a number of skin concerns such as skin laxity and volume loss, thanks to its collagen-stimulating properties, and it is the perfect ‘base’ treatment for my patients. Sculptra stimulates the development of new collagen – the primary source of improved skin firmness and volume. With accurate patient selection the results of Sculptra are gradual, very natural, and can last up to 24 months or more, and I do find results can last longer.” he says.
