Sculptra Marina Del Rey | Santa Monica Sculptra

Sculptra is a unique filler in that it stimulates your body’s natural production of fresh collagen, revealing a younger you from the inside out.

What is Sculptra?

Sculptra is an injectable filler that gradually restores lost facial volume. It is a poly-L-lactic acid (PLAA) collagen stimulator. That means it works with your body to stimulate collagen production – which restores volume and smooths away wrinkles and folds.

Treatment areas

Smile lines: the lines that run between the nose and mouth, also known as “nasolabial folds.”
Marionette lines: the laugh lines that frame your mouth.
Chin wrinkles: wrinkles and creases along the chin.

How does Sculptra work?

Sculptra is comprised of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). This synthetic substance stimulates collagen production to correct wrinkles and plump the skin. Over a period of a few months, the PLLA will encourage your body to generate fresh collagen – resulting in a naturally more youthful appearance.

Why choose Dr. Macias?

Dr. Luis Macias is an internationally renowned, highly trained, double board-certified plastic surgeon located in Marina del Rey. He approaches all of his procedures – both non-surgical and surgical – with the same commitment to facial beauty and eye for detail. As such, you will emerge from any treatment experience with subtle results that look natural – never overdone.

The treatment experience

Sculptra injections are done in the privacy of Dr. Macias’s Marina del Rey office. To begin, we will cleanse the area and apply a topical anesthetic to ensure a pleasant experience. From there, Dr. Macias will place small amounts of Sculptra beneath the surface of your skin.

Although most patients see results after just one treatment, the typical regimen consists of three appointments scheduled three to four months apart.

Recovery + Results

You will be able to return to work and your normal daily routine immediately after your Sculptra appointment. Although you may experience some swelling and bruising, these effects are mild and will subside quickly. You can minimize them by periodically applying an ice pack throughout the first 24 hours.

To protect your skin and ensure optimal results, it’s important to avoid direct sunlight and regularly massage the treatment area for several days. As your body responds to the Sculptra by producing fresh collagen, your results will gradually appear. In general, you will be able to enjoy your new, youthful look for about two years before needing a maintenance visit.
