Sculptra

With the ageing process, the amount of collagen and elastin begins to diminish along with a loss of tissue moisture. These changes combine to give rise to an increase in skin laxity, fine lines and wrinkles and an increase in the appearance of facial ageing. Whilst there are a number of highly effective nonsurgical treatments for facial rejuvenation including dermal fillers and skin tightening treatments such as Morpheus8 some patients will require treatment that will result in an overall boosting effect and is able to address a number of skin concerns at the same time. Sculptra functions as a collagen stimulator and helps to kick start the production of collagen and elastin. The resulting effect is an impressive rejuvenation of the facial skin with effects that last much longer than traditional hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers.

So glad I went with centre for surgery, the whole process went very smoothly from the consultations down to the actual day of the procedure. I was so nervous on the day but the whole team put me at ease and I’m happy with my results as I feel a lot more comfortable wearing certain clothes now. My surgeon was Alberto Di Giuseppe who performed a breast Augmentation on me, and I would definitely recommend as he was very clear on what the outcome of the surgery would be and which size would look the best for my frame.

This was overall a great experience, all the staff at Centre for Surgery were friendly and put me at ease. It is a nerve wracking thing to go through an op but the staff were so nice. Mr Ertan has got a great team around him. On the day of the operation everything went smoothly to plan, there was no delay or holdups, I had another consultation with Mr Ertan who confirmed what was going to be done and that I was still happy to proceed. I was prepped for the procedure, I met with the anaesthetist who again was really nice and put me at ease explaining his role. After the procedure I woke up with the nurse by my side making sure I was OK and checking on me, I was able to stay in the clinic until I was ready to leave and was not rushed at all. I was well looked after from the start to the point when I was discharged. Post operation I was staying at a local hotel it was so close there was no point in even getting a taxi and I was able to walk back where my partner was waiting for me. I was expecting a lot of bruising to both my eyes but there was very little if any by the time the cast came off after 7 days, I am now at the two week post operation point and it is healing well with no outwardly visible bruising or scaring. The next milestone is a checkup at the 6 week point with my surgeon. If you're thinking of having something like this done I would highly recommend getting in touch with Centre for Surgery.

I would just like to state the quality of care received from the nurses at Centre for Surgery was beyond the highest level. Sophie takes her patient care to another level beyond words. She always puts me at ease. She is there for me even at awkward hours just when I mostly needed reassurance and she is one of the most compassionate nurses I have come across and demonstrates her passion naturally for caring for others. She totally deserves recognition at its finest and thank you for always being there for me. 😍

Sculptra is a poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) based dermal filler. Sculptra differs from hyaluronic acid dermal fillers such as Juvederm in that it has a stimulation effect on the new synthesis of collagen and elastin in the dermal layer of the skin. Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers function by enhancing and restoring volume and creating a lifting effect to targeted areas of the face such as the cheeks and nasolabial folds. Sculptra exerts its effect on the deeper lying connective tissue beneath the skin surface which results in a more vibrant, softer and smoother skin complexion with an associated increase in skin tightness and hydration for a comprehensive facial rejuvenation effect.

Sculptra is an ideal non-surgical treatment for patients who are keen to improve the overall appearance of the skin without the need for more invasive treatments such as surgery. In many patients who have a good underlying bone structure, there is less of a requirement to correct volume loss as would normally occur with the injection of a hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler. Instead what would be ideal is a treatment that would result in a rejuvenation effect without the risk of creating an “overfilled” appearance with HA dermal fillers. Sculptra has a biostimulatory effect which is ideal for patients with good underlying bone structure. The formation of collagen and elastin occurs at a number of levels in the skin and even small amounts of Sculptra can act to kickstart collagen production. Currently, Sculptra is the only biostimulatory agent available today.

Sculptra is ideal for the treatment of deeper lines and folds as well as areas of the face that appear sunken or have undergone facial atrophy. Fine lines and wrinkles can be effectively softened and areas including the nasolabial folds, marionette lines and cheeks can be effectively treated.

In common with other types of dermal filler treatments, the injection of Sculptra follows a similar process. The treatment itself takes on average between 30 to 60 minutes. Our facial injectors are experienced medical practitioners with years of experience in using Sculptra and will inject Sculptra precisely into the targeted areas. The injection technique for sculpture differs from dermal fillers in that it should be injected into the deeper layers of the skin to allow its bio stimulator effects to have maximum impact. After having sculpture injections, your practitioner will massage the product into the face in order to ensure even distribution product. This step is very important.

Sculptor treatment does not result in any downtime and the vast majority of patients feel very comfortable going back to work and any regular activities straight after having their treatment. It is also normal to have a mild degree of bruising and localised tenderness and this often lasts up to 2 weeks in duration. It is very important to avoid prolonged exposure to the sun for several days after treatment and your practitioner recommends you to massage the area treated for five minutes, five times a day, for a total of five days. Your practitioner will explain to you the optimum ways to look after the area of treatment at your consultation.

Unlike hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers which result in effects that are often immediately visible, sculptural works differently. Due to its bio stimulate tree effects, it takes a period of time before the results of treatment become evident and this ranges anywhere from 3 to 6 months from your first Sculptra treatment. The production of new collagen and elastin results in the remodelling of the deeper connective tissue and this is a process that takes time hence why results are not immediately visible after treatment. This is an effect also observed with treatment after Morpheus8.

For optimum results, our practitioners recommend between 1 to 3 initial treatments and you will often notice a significant improvement in your facial skin following each treatment with optimal results being noticed about four weeks after your final treatment. The great benefit of sculpture is that results will continue to improve over a period of several months following your final treatment.

Sculptra is ideal for softening fine lines and wrinkles and enhancing volume in areas of the face which have been affected by ageing. Sculptra is designed to produce a refreshed and rejuvenated facial look without the need for more invasive surgery.

Both the upper and lower parts of the face can be treated with sculpture including:

• Cheeks
• Temples
• Chin
• Jawline
• Nasolabial folds
• Forehead

Sculptra is an effective treatment for improving the shape of the buttocks, adding contour and definition, smoothening of textural irregularities or subtly enhancing buttock volume. Some women may be unsuitable for a Brazilian butt lift due to a lack of adequate fat reserves or may be unwilling to have an invasive surgical procedure to enhance their buttock contour. Sculptra produces results that can last for up to 2 years. After this, we would recommend yearly maintenance treatment to maintain the shape of your buttocks.
