What is Sculptra?

Sculptra is a bio-stimulatory injectable designed to restore facial volume and improve skin quality over time. Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra doesn’t cause immediate plumping. Instead, it stimulates your body’s natural collagen production with its active ingredient, poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a safe, biocompatible compound. This process leads to subtle, lasting rejuvenation that unfolds over several months, making it ideal for patients seeking gradual, natural-looking improvement. At Moradi MD, we are honored to be the preferred practice for Sculptra in San Diego, including Carlsbad, Oceanside, Vista, San Marcos, and Encinitas.

What Are The Benefits of Sculptra?

Sculptra delivers subtle and enduring results by working with your body—not against it. The benefits of this groundbreaking product include the following:

  • Stimulates natural collagen production
  • Enhances facial volume and skin thickness over time
  • Reduces deep lines and folds, including nasolabial folds and marionette lines
  • Improves hollow or sunken cheeks
  • Biocompatible, synthetic, and FDA-approved
  • Minimal risk of allergic reaction
  • Results can last up to 2–3 years
  • Gradual transformation for a discreet, natural effect

Your Consultation: Let’s Discover the Ideal Treatment for You.

We’ll begin with a personal consultation to assess your skin condition and facial structure and discuss your aesthetic goals. This appointment allows us to determine if Sculptra is right for you—or if another treatment might better suit your needs. We’ll also explain how many sessions are recommended to achieve optimal results (typically two to four weeks apart).

What Is the Cost of Treatment?

Sculptra injection prices are based on the number of vials needed and the number of sessions you need to reach your aesthetic goals. Because it works gradually, multiple sessions are needed in most cases. You’ll receive a personalized treatment plan and cost estimate during your consultation.

What to Expect During the Procedure

Each Sculptra session takes about 30 to 45 minutes. A topical anesthetic may be applied to improve comfort. Your injector will carefully deliver the product into targeted areas of the face using a fine needle or cannula. Because results develop gradually, your provider may recommend spacing out treatments over several months to allow your collagen to rebuild naturally.

Results Timeline: Sculptra Injections in San Diego

Most patients experience mild redness, swelling, or bruising that resolves within three to five days. Cold compresses can help minimize swelling, and you should avoid sun exposure immediately after treatment. Results begin to appear at around the three-month mark and continue to improve over the next several months as collagen production increases. Full results are usually seen at four to six months and may last up to two or three years.
