Skip to content As time passes, our skin gradually loses collagen and elastin, leading to volume loss and the formation of wrinkles. This natural aging process can cause the face to appear hollow and saggy, particularly in areas like the cheeks, temples, and jawline. Rediscover your skin’s youthful structure with Sculptra®, an advanced collagen-stimulating treatment offered at Viva Medspa & Wellness in Cranston, RI. Our skilled practitioners use Sculptra®’s unique poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) formula to stimulate your body’s natural production of collagen, restoring lost volume and smoothing out wrinkles for a refreshed and revitalized appearance—without surgery.

Before Treatment
During Treatment
After Treatment
Unlike traditional fillers that instantly plump the skin, Sculptra® works gradually over several weeks. Since the treatment stimulates natural collagen production, the results appear soft, natural, and not overfilled. A series of approximately three treatments is typically required, spaced over a few months, to achieve optimal volume and contour. Because of this gradual process, patients can determine how much volume they are comfortable with as their results evolve.
Sculptra® lasts longer than traditional fillers, with results lasting up to two years. Since it stimulates your body’s collagen production, the improvement in volume and texture remains even after the body absorbs the filler itself. Most patients require three treatments over three to four months to achieve their desired look, with results that can be maintained for years with periodic touch-ups.
Most patients need 2-3 sessions several weeks apart for best results. The exact number will depend on your skin’s condition, collagen production, and desired outcome. Since Sculptra® works gradually, multiple treatments allow progressive and natural-looking volume restoration.
You may have mild discomfort during the procedure, but a numbing agent can enhance comfort. Most patients find the injections tolerable, describing the sensation as a slight pinch or pressure. Any post-treatment tenderness typically subsides within a few days.
Some swelling, bruising, or redness may be seen in the injection areas, but these effects will subside within a few days. In rare cases, minor lumps or nodules can form under the skin, but proper massage and post-care can help prevent this. Any discomfort can usually be managed with ice packs and over-the-counter pain relief.
Sculptra® results can last up to two years or longer with proper maintenance. Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, which dissolve over time, Sculptra® triggers natural collagen production, providing long-lasting volume and skin rejuvenation. Many patients schedule periodic maintenance treatments to extend their results and keep their skin youthful.
Yes! Sculptra® works well alongside other cosmetic treatments such as Botox®, dermal fillers, microneedling, and laser therapy. Combining treatments can enhance facial rejuvenation by addressing volume loss and skin texture.
