Volume loss occurs during the natural aging process, but our team offers Sculptra Aesthetic, a poly-L-lactic acid dermal filler that allows for fuller and longer-lasting volume in the face and/or body. In addition to improving the volume of the mid-face, Sculptra can decrease the look of fine to deep wrinkles and lines, including the nasolabial folds (also known as smile or laugh lines) that start at the outside of the nose to the outer corners of the mouth. With a unique gel formula approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Sculptra promotes the natural collagen production in your body so even after you stop injections, your skin should be stronger compared to before Sculptra injections. Schedule a consultation at Dolce Aesthetics™ in Scottsdale or Chandler, AZ to hear about the advantages of this treatment.

Following your consult to develop your unique plan for treatment, you will receive your Sculptra injections in one of our private procedure rooms. Your injector may apply a local anesthetic or numbing cream before cleaning and marking the sites to be injected. Once you are ready, Sculptra will be injected down to the deeper layers of the skin at the chosen sites.
After your appointment, you may experience mild or moderate redness, swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the sites of injections that should subside naturally in several days. To encourage healing, you may apply a cold compress to the injected areas. Many patients will notice visible improvements immediately following their Sculptra treatment with full results appearing after 3 – 5 months, as the natural production of collagen improves the health of the complexion.
