Sculptra®
Sculptra® contains Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a synthetic polymer of lactic acid. It is biocompatible, biodegradable, and does not require a skin test. Over several months, the body naturally breaks down the PLLA, but the results – new collagen growth – can last for several years.
Why consider Sculptra treatment?
Sculptra is ideal for restoring volume gradually and naturally, with results that develop and last. One of its main advantages is that it can treat larger areas of the face, creating subtle, long-lasting rejuvenation.
Sculptra can help to:
- Replace volume lost through ageing
- Smooth lines and wrinkles in the cheeks and chin
- Reduce deep folds and creases
- Correct sunken areas such as cheeks and temples
- Enhance facial contours
Improve overall skin texture and tone.

What is a Sculptra filler treatment?
Sculptra works differently from traditional fillers. Instead of simply adding volume, it stimulates your body’s own collagen production. This helps maintain skin elasticity and firmness over time.
The treatment is administered via a cannula to ensure the product is placed evenly and precisely. Initially, you’ll notice a temporary fullness from the water content, but this subsides as it is absorbed. The true results appear gradually, as new collagen develops beneath the skin.

Before and After
Sculptra® at Lisa Moore Therapy – FAQs
Can Sculptra® be combined with other treatments?
Absolutely. At Lisa Moore Therapy, we often combine Sculptra® with treatments such as anti-wrinkle injections or skin boosters to create a bespoke rejuvenation plan tailored to you.
How is Sculptra® different from dermal fillers?
Unlike traditional fillers that provide instant volume, Sculptra® works gradually by encouraging your own natural collagen production. This means softer, longer-lasting results that enhance rather than change your features.
How long do the results last?
Results from Sculptra® typically last up to a year or longer, making it one of the most durable injectable treatments we offer.
How many sessions will I need?
As a guide, we usually recommend one vial per decade of age, spread across 2–3 sessions for optimal results. For example, a client in their 40s may need around 4 vials as part of their treatment journey.
Is Sculptra® a new treatment?
Not at all. Sculptra® has been used safely worldwide for over 25 years. So has a great safety profile. It’s become increasingly popular as more clients choose natural, graceful ageing rather than an “overfilled” look.
Is Sculptra® suitable for everyone?
A full consultation at Lisa Moore Therapy is essential to determine if Sculptra® is right for you. We’ll assess your goals, skin health, and medical history to recommend the best approach.
Is there downtime after treatment?
Downtime is minimal. You may notice slight redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site, but this usually settles within a few days.
When will I see results?
Sculptra® works gradually. Collagen production increases over the following weeks, with the best results becoming visible after a few months.
Which areas can Sculptra® treat?
Sculptra® is excellent for restoring structure and volume in areas such as the cheeks, temples, jawline, and lower face.
Can Sculptra® be dissolved?
Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, Sculptra® cannot be dissolved once injected. This is why your consultation with Lisa is so important, ensuring it’s the right treatment for your individual goals.
How do I maintain my results?
After your initial course, we usually recommend a maintenance session every 12–24 months to keep your results fresh, though this will vary depending on your lifestyle and natural ageing process.
