As we age, our skin gradually loses collagen, resulting in volume loss, sagging, and the development of wrinkles. While hyaluronic acid fillers can provide quick improvements, some patients prefer a treatment that works more gradually to restore structure and stimulate the body’s own collagen production. At MCNYC – The Medical Clinic New York City, we offer Sculptra®, an injectable treatment designed to restore facial volume and deliver long-lasting, natural results.
Guided by Dr. Nicolas Batty, MD, FACP, FASCP, our patients benefit from physician-directed care that combines advanced techniques with a holistic approach to aesthetic enhancement. With over 25 years of medical experience, Dr. Batty provides treatments that prioritize both safety and artistry, ensuring outcomes that look balanced and refined.
What Is Sculptra?
Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable treatment made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible material that stimulates the body to gradually produce new collagen. Unlike traditional dermal fillers that provide immediate results, Sculptra works over time to rebuild the underlying structure of the skin.
This process helps restore volume to areas of the face that naturally thin with age, including the cheeks, temples, and jawline. By replenishing collagen, Sculptra also helps soften deep wrinkles and folds, creating a more youthful, refreshed appearance that develops gradually and lasts longer than most fillers.
Benefits of Sculptra
Patients at MCNYC choose Sculptra for many reasons, including:
Gradual, natural improvements that develop over several weeks.
Collagen stimulation for long-lasting support and skin health.
Restored facial volume in areas affected by age-related thinning.
Softening of deep folds and wrinkles, including nasolabial folds.
Durability, with results that can last up to two years or longer.
Customizable treatment plans tailored to individual goals.
Because the results emerge gradually, Sculptra is often described as a subtle, “secret” rejuvenation—friends may notice you look refreshed without knowing you’ve had a treatment.
What to Expect from Treatment
Sculptra is performed in our New York City office as a quick, comfortable procedure. After a consultation to discuss your goals, the product is carefully injected into targeted areas using a fine needle or cannula. Local numbing options are available to maximize comfort.
Following treatment, patients may notice mild swelling or redness, which typically resolves within a few days. Because Sculptra works by stimulating collagen, results are not immediate; instead, they build gradually over the following weeks and months. For optimal results, most patients undergo a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart.
Improvements can last up to two years or more, making Sculptra an excellent option for long-term facial rejuvenation.
