As we age, our skin loses collagen, and fine lines or wrinkles appear. Wrinkles don’t happen overnight. Collagen loss is subtle and can even start as young as 18. At Flawless Aesthetic Center, we provide some of the best Sculptra results in Nigeria, smoothing skin and minimizing fine lines and creases around your face for an authentically rejuvenated appearance. Biostimulating injectable Sculptra is one of the most effective fillers available, going beyond volume enhancement to renew your skin’s health at the cellular level.
Sculptra is a distinctive injectable treatment crafted to address volume loss and improve skin texture by activating your body's innate regenerative processes. Unlike traditional dermal fillers that provide immediate volume with a gel-like substance, Sculptra is composed of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) microparticles.
Sculptra works a bit differently from hyaluronic acid fillers. Sculptra is a synthetic injectable that helps to restore collagen gradually over time. It is injected more deeply into the dermal layer to stimulate the production of new collagen within the skin, for beautiful results.
The overarching purpose of Sculptra is to restore lost volume in a gradual, subtle, and natural-looking manner, enhancing facial contours and fostering a more resilient, refreshed complexion from within.
Patients have reported being quite comfortable during their Sculptra treatments. Your aesthetician at Flawless Aesthetic Center is experienced in making sure you feel at ease during your treatment. A topical numbing cream can be applied, or if needed, a local anesthetic can be administered as well. Depending on the areas needing rejuvenation, a series of injections will be administered. You might feel a bit of pinching as a fine-gauge needle is injected into the area.
Sculptra is specially formulated to address specific conditions related to the natural decline of collagen and volume loss, gracefully restoring a more youthful and harmonious facial appearance. It precisely refines:
By activating your body's own collagen, Sculptra addresses your concerns from within, resulting in a refined and natural aesthetic. The following benefits include:

Sculptra is a safe and effective way to naturally produce collagen, smoothing lines and wrinkles for all skin types and skin colors. You are a good candidate for Sculptra in Abuja if you are looking for a non-invasive solution to rejuvenate your skin’s appearance. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, you should not have any dermal fill treatments. You should also talk to our expert aesthetician if you are currently on blood thinners or if you have severe allergies.
Sculptra injections are virtually painless, although some minor swelling, bruising, and tingling at the injection site are to be expected. These side effects quickly dissipate, usually by the end of the day. You can apply an ice pack to your skin to help minimize swelling, and you can take ibuprofen if needed. Most clients return to their normal activities, such as work, school, or leisure, immediately after their Sculptra session.
The elegance of Sculptra lies in its subtle, progressive nature. You will not see immediate filling as with some other injectables. After initial temporary swelling from the solution resolves (within a few days), it may appear as though nothing has changed. However, the true, lasting enhancements will begin to emerge gradually as your body produces new collagen.
You'll typically notice a visible improvement in volume and skin quality starting around 4 to 6 weeks after your first session, with the most refined and complete results blossoming over 3 to 6 months after your full series of treatments.
Sculptra offers exceptional longevity, stimulating your body to create its own natural collagen for remarkable durability. After completing an initial series of recommended treatments, results can last up to two years or even longer.
This makes Sculptra a profound investment in maintaining your elegant contours and refreshed appearance. We recommend occasional maintenance sessions for a sustainably refreshed appearance.

Although the effects of Sculptra are long-lasting, it may take a series of treatments to get the results you desire. Most patients will return for at least two, to as many as six sessions. Results can take a few weeks to appear but are well worth the wait. Your treatments should be scheduled at least 30 days apart.
Side effects of dermal fillers are minimal, but you can expect some tenderness or redness around the injection site. Some patients have experienced mild bruising and swelling. Ice packs are recommended to relieve any discomfort following a Sculptra procedure. Most side effects should be resolved in approximately two days but can last up to two weeks.
Each patient is unique, and they all have different needs. Depending on the number of injections you receive, each treatment takes anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes.
It is common to see results of a Sculptra treatment last as long as two years.
Sculptra is composed of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible and biodegradable synthetic material. It's a key ingredient that safely stimulates your body's natural collagen production.
Unlike traditional hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers that provide immediate volume, Sculptra is a biostimulator. It works gradually by encouraging your body to produce its own collagen, leading to subtle, natural, and exceptionally long-lasting results that evolve over time.
Discomfort during Sculptra injections is typically minimal. Sculptra is often mixed with lidocaine (a local anesthetic) to ensure comfort during placement. Our aesthetic experts also utilize very fine needles or cannulas and can apply a topical numbing cream beforehand.
Yes, in addition to common facial areas like the cheeks, temples, and jawline, Sculptra can also be used to subtly improve contours and skin quality in select body areas, such as the décolletage or buttocks, where collagen stimulation is beneficial.
The "Rule of 5s" is a crucial aftercare instruction for Sculptra: massage the treated areas for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 consecutive days. This helps to ensure even distribution of the product and promotes optimal collagen formation.
