Experience Long-lasting Results You’ll Love
Sculptra is an injectable treatment made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible substance that stimulates your skin to produce new collagen over time. Unlike traditional hyaluronic acid fillers that add instant volume, Sculptra works beneath the surface to rebuild structure and firmness gradually.
The result? Natural-looking volume restoration that can last up to two years or more.

How Does Sculptra Work?
As we age, collagen production declines — leading to volume loss, skin laxity, and hollowing in areas like the cheeks, temples, and jawline.
Sculptra works by:
- Being injected strategically into areas of volume loss
- Triggering your body’s natural collagen production
- Gradually restoring structure and firmness over 8–12 weeks
- Continuing to improve skin quality over several months
Think of it as planting seeds. You don’t see the garden bloom overnight — but when it does, it’s worth it.
What Areas Can Be Treated?
If you’ve noticed a loss of volume, fine lines, or skin that doesn’t have that same youthful quality, Sculptra at Arlo Medical Injections offers a natural solution that uses your body’s natural mechanisms to restore your skin’s structure from the inside out.
Sculptra is ideal for:
- Cheeks and midface volume loss
- Temples
- Jawline contouring
- Lower face hollowing
- Pre-jowl sulcus
- Overall facial rejuvenation
It is not typically used for lips or under-eyes.
What to Expect
Step 1: Your Personalized Consultation
Every journey begins with you. Our expert injectors begin with a detailed assessment of facial structure, volume loss, aesthetic goals, and create a customized plan that aligns with your vision. Whether you’re looking to restore lost volume, enhance facial contours, or achieve firmer, more youthful skin, we will guide you every step of the way.
Step 2: The Treatment Process
With precise injection techniques, we carefully place the Sculptra into specific areas beneath the skin for maximum impact in line with your treatment goals.
- Treatment time: 30–45 minutes
- Minimal downtime
- Local anesthetic is included for comfort
You may experience temporary swelling, redness, or mild bruising.
Step 3: The “5-5-5 Rule” for Aftercare
Aftercare is easy. No army of aftercare products to apply, no avoiding the sun like a vampire. Just a gentle massage of the treated area:
- 5 minutes
- 5 times a day
- For 5 days
This helps ensure even distribution and optimal collagen stimulation.
The downtime after Sculptra treatments are minimal and you can resume most normal activities right away.
Step 4: Long-Lasting Results
Unlike traditional hyaluronic acid fillers that provide instant volume, Sculptra works with your body’s natural processes to improve smoothness, firmness, volume, and elasticity over several weeks.
- Initial swelling may give temporary fullness (this fades in a few days)
- True results begin appearing at 6–8 weeks
- Optimal results after a series of 2–3 sessions spaced 6–8 weeks apart – with benefits lasting up to two years.
Patience is part of the magic.
How Long Does Sculptra Last?
Results can last up to 2 years or longer depending on age, metabolism, and treatment plan.
Because Sculptra builds collagen, you’re improving your skin’s foundation — not just filling space.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Sculptra the same as filler?
No. Traditional hyaluronic acid fillers add immediate volume. Sculptra stimulates your body to rebuild collagen gradually.
How many treatments will I need?
A general guideline is one vial per decade of life (for example, 4 vials total for someone in their 40s), typically spread over 2–3 sessions. Your treatment plan will be customized.
Does it hurt?
Discomfort is minimal. Sculptra is mixed with lidocaine, and we use advanced injection techniques to maximize comfort.
Is there downtime?
Most clients return to normal activities the same day. Mild swelling or bruising may occur for a few days.
Will I look overfilled?
No. Sculptra results appear gradually and look extremely natural. You’ll look refreshed — not inflated.
Can Sculptra be combined with other treatments?
Yes. It pairs beautifully with neuromodulators, hyaluronic acid fillers, skin treatments, and energy-based devices for comprehensive rejuvenation.
