Sculptra Care Guide
Sculptra works gradually, stimulating your own collagen over a series of sessions, which means aftercare, especially the massage routine, plays a bigger role in your results than with a typical filler.
Why Aftercare Matters for Your Results
Because Sculptra builds volume through your body's own collagen response, consistent aftercare, particularly the daily massage in the days following treatment, helps the product distribute evenly for smoother, more natural results.
Pre & Post Care Tips
Results build gradually, becoming noticeable after your second session and reaching full effect over several months as your body responds to each treatment.
