Improve Skin Quality and Get A Youthful Glow With Sculptra Treatment in NYC

Glowing skin starts from within.  Discover the transformative effects of Sculptra in NYC at Shafer Clinic. Under the expert care of Dr. David Shafer, our renowned double board-certified plastic surgeon known for his personalized approach and exceptional results, we offer this innovative treatment to help you achieve natural-looking facial rejuvenation. Sculptra is a unique injectable that stimulates your skin's own collagen production, restoring volume and reducing the signs of aging over time. It gradually helps restore your skin foundation, with results seen as early as 1 month after treatment and lasting up to 2 years, revealing natural-looking firmness and improved skin quality. 95% of patients had improved skin glow 2 years after Sculptra treatment.

What Is Sculptra?

Sculptra is an FDA-approved poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA-SCA) collagen stimulator that can improve skin glow, tightness, and jawline contour for up to two years.  Unlike traditional dermal fillers that provide immediate but temporary results, Sculptra is unique and works gradually to rebuild lost facial volume and improve skin elasticity.  This process enhances facial contours and softens wrinkles and folds over time, delivering long-lasting, natural-looking results that can last up to two years or more. Sculptra is ideal for those seeking a subtle yet significant improvement in their appearance without the need for surgery.

What to Expect During Your Sculptra Procedure

When you choose Sculptra in NYC at Shafer Clinic, you can anticipate a personalized and comfortable experience. Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation with our expert team to assess your aesthetic goals and determine the best treatment plan for you. During the 30-45 minute treatment, Sculptra is injected into targeted areas using fine needles. You might feel a mild sensation at the injection sites, but discomfort is generally minimal. One of the unique aspects of Sculptra is that results appear gradually. You may notice some immediate fullness due to injection fluids, but this will subside within a few days. 

Over the following weeks and months, Sculptra works beneath the skin's surface to stimulate collagen production. This process restores facial volume and smooths out wrinkles and folds naturally over time. After the procedure, there is little to no downtime. You might experience minor redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites, but these effects are temporary and typically resolve quickly. Dr. Shafer and our team will provide you with aftercare instructions to optimize your results. Most patients return to their regular activities immediately, enjoying a seamless integration of Sculptra into their lives.
