Sculptra | Education
Post-Procedure:
Please massage the treated area for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days following treatment. Massage allows the Sculptra particles to develop collagen evenly under the skin. The Sculptra will remain in the desired location even with massage, so don’t worry you are massaging it incorrectly.
Ice packs may be applied to the treated areas to reduce swelling & decrease tenderness as needed.
Expect soreness for up to 2 weeks after treatment, especially while chewing. This will improve gradually but will resolve completely.
Remember that a few days after treatment, you will look just as you did before treatment. This is because the water that was injected gets absorbed, leaving the Sculptra particles behind to stimulate your own collagen to grow.
Visible results appear gradually over a few months & last 25 months or longer.
Schedule your next 2 Sculptra treatments for 5 weeks & 10 weeks after your first treatment & expect results over the next 5 months.
