Sculptra
Am I a candidate?As the body ages, the skin will become looser and less elastic. Years of repeating the same expression will cause fine lines and wrinkles to form across the face and body, lending to an aged appearance. Modern aesthetic technology means that you don’t have to put up with these fine lines and wrinkles; you can get rid of them with the help of a simple injection. If you want smoother skin, consider Sculptra in West Bloomfield Township. Sculptra is a popular dermal filler that can help you get the clear skin you deserve.

02
Long-Lasting

The Sculptra Process
What to Expect?
Consultation
The first step in scheduling an appointment for Sculptra in West Bloomfield Township is the initial consultation. The initial consultation is vital for ensuring that we find the right solution for your specific aesthetic condition. When you come in for your consultation, we’ll ask you some questions about what you expect from your treatment with us. Afterward, we’ll examine your areas of concern so we can get an idea of your condition for ourselves. This information will allow us to get your Sculptra injections scheduled.
Get Your Injections
When the day of your treatment arrives, we will give you one more opportunity to ask any questions you may have before the procedure. Then, we’ll bring you into the treatment room and sanitize the treatment area. Depending on your needs, we may apply a topical anesthetic to minimize any discomfort you may experience during the procedure. The injection likely won’t be painful, though some patients do report feeling a small amount of pressure.
Next Steps
After the injections are complete, we will examine the treatment area to ensure that everything looks correct. Then, we will provide you with post-care instructions. These instructions can minimize side effects and help you maintain your wrinkle-clearing results.
If you’re looking to prepare for your appointment for Sculptra in West Bloomfield Township, you might consider:
- Avoiding any medications that thin your blood, like aspirin.
- Refraining from drinking alcohol in the 2 days leading up to your injections, as that also thins blood.
- Keeping hydrated and drinking lots of water before your injection.
- Asking your provider about which medications to avoid.
You likely won’t need to take any downtime after your Sculptra injection, but you will need to:
- Avoid touching the treatment area.
- Sleep with your face up, especially if you notice swelling in the treatment area.
- Hold your head upright in the 4 hours following your injection.
- Refrain from using intense scrubs and exfoliators on the skin.
- Abstain from intense aerobic exercise for 24 hours.
