PLUMP THE SKIN WITH SCULPTRA® AESTHETIC
Sculptra® Aesthetic is a long-lasting treatment for people looking to correct shallow to deep facial wrinkles and folds. It is the first facial injectable that gives you subtle results over time.
Sculptra® replaces lost collagen, giving you a more natural-looking appearance, without anyone ever knowing you had something done! Dr. George Solomon at Solomon Cosmetic Center in Tampa, FL, can help you decide if Sculptra® Aesthetic is right for you.
Sculptra® Aesthetic is composed of tiny beads of a synthetic material called poly-l-lactic acid. Poly-l-lactic acid (PLLA) is biocompatible (does not harm the body), biodegradable (able to be broken down by the body) material that has been widely used for over 25 years in medicine in dissolvable stitches and other surgical products.
Sculptra® Aesthetic works to replace lost collagen. Collagen is a key structural component that keeps skin youthful looking and smooth. As you age, your body’s collagen production decreases, and you may begin to see wrinkles.
Within the deep dermis, your skin’s structure is reinforced as Sculptra® Aesthetic helps to replace that lost collagen. This reinforced collagen structure provides a foundation that gradually restores the look of fullness of your shallow to deep facial wrinkles and folds that have been depleted over time.
The result? Sculptra® Aesthetic is different because it gradually and subtly corrects these facial wrinkles. This can provide a refined, more youthful-looking appearance that can last up to two years.

BENEFITS OF SCULPTRA® AESTHETIC
Under Dr. Solomon’s expert care, Sculptra® Aesthetic can provide subtle, yet transformative improvements. Benefits of Sculptra® Aesthetic include:
- Long-lasting results
- Sculptra® Aesthetic is not made from human or animal sources and does not require a skin test prior to use
- Biocompatible, a material that does not harm the body, and biodegradable, able to be broken down by the body.
ABOUT THE PROCEDURE
Sculptra® Aesthetic is administered in a series of treatment sessions. Each treatment takes around 30 minutes and involves injections of Sculptra® Aesthetic using a very fine needle directly into the lower layers of the skin. Dr. Solomon can apply a topical or local anesthetic to minimize discomfort if needed.
The number of necessary injections depends on many factors. On average, three injection sessions are needed over a period of a few months. The number of injection sessions and the number of injections per session vary from person to person. It is important to return for all treatment sessions as instructed by your doctor in order to get the maximum effect from the gradual process of collagen replacement.
HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?
Following an average of three treatment sessions over a few months, you can expect to see a more natural, younger-looking appearance that can last up to two years. Sculptra® Aesthetic will not correct the underlying cause of the facial fat loss but will help improve the appearance by increasing skin thickness in the treated area.
AFTERCARE AND RECOVERY
Immediately following a treatment session with Sculptra® Aesthetic, redness, swelling, pain, bruising or all of these signs can happen in the treatment area. These signs usually go away in a few hours to a few days. After each treatment session with Sculptra® Aesthetic, there are a few easy things you will need to help with the treatment results:
- Apply an ice pack within the first 24 hours of treatment to the treated area for a few minutes at a time. Make sure the ice pack is wrapped in a cloth and never applied directly to the skin. This will help to reduce common swelling.
- Massage the treated area for 5 minutes 5 times a day for the first 5 days after treatment will be beneficial to the treatment.
- Avoid excessive sunlight and UV lamp exposure until any initial swelling and redness go away.
Each patient is unique; therefore, results of treatment may vary.
HOW MUCH DOES SCULPTRA® AESTHETIC COST?
The price of your Sculptra® Aesthetic treatment will be determined by the number of injections and the number of treatment sessions needed to accomplish your desired outcome. All costs associated with your unique facial rejuvenation protocol will be reviewed with you prior to your procedure.
