Sculptra in Austin, Texas
Find the secret to youthful skin. Slow down the underlying causes of facial aging.
Sculptra
Sculptra Aesthetic is an injectable that works gradually in a series of treatments — on average, three injection sessions over a few months — for a subtle, more youthful-looking appearance. Sculptra targets the underlying causes of the signs of facial aging. It can give you noticeable results that emerge subtly and can last for more than 2 years. It begins to work within the deep dermis, where your skin’s structure is reinforced as Sculptra helps to replace lost collagen.

Sculptra Butt lift
Sculptra Butt Lift is a revolutionary non-surgical alternative to a traditional butt lift or a Brazilian butt lift. This treatment involves the use of Sculptra injections at targeted areas under the skin. This thickens the skin and stimulates deep collagen growth, resulting in a firmer feeling and more voluptuous buttocks.
This is most useful in someone who has very little fat for transfer to the buttock area. This lift can make the buttocks fuller for women of most body types. However, this is especially good for slim women without much body fat.
What are the benefits of this procedure?
Natural Results: Subtle and impactful lift
Simple Candidacy: Leaner patients qualify
Non-Surgical: Lower risks and complications
Non-Invasive: Anesthesia not required
Short Recovery: Easy return to routine
Quick Treatments: Limited life interruption
Safe Materials: Injections easily absorb
Long Duration: Results may last up to 2-5 years
An office procedure with minimal to no downtime. Within 24 hours you can be back to your activities.
Which patients qualify?
You may be a good candidate for a Sculptra butt lift if you wish to:
Increase the volume, size or shape of the buttocks without surgery
Improve contour of the buttock area
Enhance your buttocks, but do not qualify for a fat transfer procedure
Bring proportion and contouring to the buttocks area
Patients who want to treat the “hip dip” area
Add subtle lift to the buttocks area
Women who are not a candidate for buttock implants
Experience long term, non-permanent results
A woman looking for improvement, not perfection, in the way she looks is the strongest candidate for a Sculptra lift. If you’re healthy and realistic in your expectations, this type of treatment may be right for you.
What is the recovery time?
Sculptra butt lifts have no downtime as there is no surgery involved in the treatment. Patients are sore after the procedure so we recommend no exercise for 24 hours.
How long do results last?
Results may last up to two to five years.

How soon will I see results?
Sculptra Aesthetic is designed to give you noticeable results that emerge gradually and can last more than two years.* Don’t be disappointed if you don’t see immediate results. A few days after treatment, you may look as you did before treatment. This is normal and temporary. The Sculptra Aesthetic regimen delivers its full effects with an average of three treatment sessions over the course of a few months. Because results happen gradually, you’ll see subtle, yet noticeable, results in the reduction of facial wrinkles and folds by comparing images before treatment and a couple months following treatment.**
How soon after treatment can I wear makeup?
If there are no complications, you may apply makeup several hours after treatment. Be sure to consult your doctor after treatment.
Is Sculptra Aesthetic safe? What are the side effects?
Sculptra Aesthetic is FDA approved in the United States and has been used worldwide since 1999. Sculptra Aesthetic is made of a synthetic material called poly-L-lactic acid that is absorbed naturally by the body and has been used for years in dissolvable stitches.
Since Sculptra Aesthetic does not contain any human or animal components, no allergy testing is needed prior to treatments.
Side effects reported include injection site pain, redness, bruising, tenderness, itching and lumps, bleeding or swelling. Small bumps under the skin can sometimes be noticeable when pressing on the treated area. Larger lumps, with or without inflammation, have also been reported.
The types and duration of side effects may vary. If you are experiencing side effects, talk to your doctor.
