Sculptra® in Newton, MA
Rebuild volume from within
Sculptra® works differently from traditional fillers. Instead of filling an area right away, it uses poly-L-lactic acid to prompt your skin to produce more of its own collagen over the following weeks and months.
The result is a gradual return of firmness and fullness that looks like you, only a few years more rested. Our Newton providers plan each Sculptra® series around your facial structure and goals.

Frequently asked questions
How long does Sculptra® last?
After a full series, many patients enjoy results for two years or longer. Occasional maintenance sessions can help extend them.
When will I see results?
Initial fullness fades within a few days. Real improvement develops gradually over several weeks to a few months as your body builds collagen.
How many sessions will I need?
Most people need two to three sessions spaced about six weeks apart, though your provider will recommend a plan based on your goals.
How is Sculptra® different from hyaluronic acid filler?
Hyaluronic acid fillers add volume right away. Sculptra® stimulates your own collagen, so results appear gradually and tend to last longer.
