“Sculptra represents a shift toward more regenerative treatments in aesthetic medicine. Rather than using fillers that simply add volume, Sculptra encourages your body to stimulate its own production of collagen, creating a more natural-looking enhancement. For patients seeking subtle improvement that leaves others noticing you look better but unable to pinpoint exactly what changed, Sculptra provides an excellent solution.” –Deejay Hines, PA-C

Sculptra is $800 per vial at Columbus Facial Plastics. Most patients require multiple vials for optimal results, with the general guideline being one vial per decade of life for initial treatment followed by annual maintenance treatments to maintain results. A typical initial treatment series involves 1-2 vials per session with 2-3 sessions spaced 6-8 weeks apart. Maintenance sessions typically include 1-2 vials annually. Your initial consultation fee can be applied toward your treatment.
Sculptra works by causing inflammation at the injection site, which triggers your body’s healing response and stimulates collagen production. Unlike traditional fillers that immediately add volume, Sculptra creates a youthful appearance by encouraging your body to build its own collagen in the treated areas.
Sculptra requires patience as results are not immediate. Initially, you’ll only see temporary swelling from the water used to inject the product. True results develop gradually over three months as your body builds collagen in response to the treatment. Most patients need multiple sessions of Sculptra in Columbus before achieving their desired outcome.
The number of treatments varies based on your age and degree of volume loss. A general guideline is one vial per decade of life, meaning a 40-year-old patient might need four vials total. Younger patients may need fewer vials, while older patients with more significant volume loss might require more.
Sculptra injections in Columbus are commonly used in the midface and lower face for skin laxity. Sculptra is also effective for temple hollowing and areas where skin quality needs improvement. It works well as a total facial treatment that can address multiple areas during the same session.
Sculptra can be used alongside dermal fillers to enhance overall facial volume and structure, with Sculptra stimulating collagen production for long-term results and fillers providing immediate contouring and lift. It is also ideal for patients who don’t want filler and prefer a more natural approach.
