Product Summary for Sculptra:

Sculptra

® (previously branded as New-Fill®) was launched in the U.K. in the year 2000.

The manufacturer claims that the product can help cause new collagen growth rather than just mechanically filling depressions. The product itself is not permanent but the effects can be long lasting.

Sculptra® is used more as a sculpting agent rather than just wrinkle filler and larger areas can be treated with a longer lasting result.

This product was rebranded under the new name

Sculptra

® in 2004 and is growing in popularity in the U.K. and Europe. Since 2005, over 17,000 treatments have been carried out in the UK with Sculptra®.

Product uses:

Duration of effect:

This depends upon the degree of correction required, your age and lifestyle as well as the correct placement of the product by a practitioner. Generally two or three sessions are required, with noticeable effects after approximately six weeks.

Clinical trials indicate that

Sculptra® is effective for up to three years and in some cases longer.

Reported side effects :

The most common side effects include bleeding, tenderness or pain, redness, bruising or swelling at the site of injection. These side effects generally resolve in 2-6 days.

Few reported side effects include nodule formation (small bumps) after injection. This is caused by too much product being injected too superficially in the skin. These small bumps may not be visible, and you may notice them only when you press in the treated skin. These bumps tend to happen within the first 6 to 12 months after the first treatment. Typically resolution is spontaneous, over a period of months. Nodules can be treated if required.
