Collagen Injections
Sculptra is a unique collagen injection used to volumise and repair the ageing face, especially in areas where the cheeks have fallen giving rise to a sunken, crepey appearance. Elements Medical provide Sculptra injections from our Doncaster-based clinic, easily accessible from surrounding areas of Barnsley and Rotherham.
Sculptra is injected directly into the skin, helping to stimulate the body’s own production of new collagen to thicken the skin, soften lines and wrinkles, and create volume in areas of fat loss. This creates smoother, tighter and firmer skin.
A course of three (two-vial) treatments is required at eight-week intervals and results can typically last up to two years.
Aftercare instructions and advice are given on the day of your treatment for any injectable treatment we offer. Swelling and bruising are common side effects and will subside after 7 – 10 days, and you can expect to see your end-result after two weeks.
Benefits of having treatment:
- The formation of Sculptra in synthetic and used to restore volume loss
- Once injected, Sculptra naturally boosts the production of collagen
- When collagen is produced it naturally starts to add more volume and luminosity
- Sculptra is quite a thick product, so when situated and in place the results can typically last a long time.
