Sculptra Aesthetic is used by Dr. Tuma to help replace lost collagen, a structural component of skin that keeps it smooth and young looking.
As we age, collagen production decreases and wrinkles begin to appear. With a series of treatments administered by Dr. Tuma at his office in the Bucks County, Pennsylvania and Hopewell/Princeton, New Jersey area, the skin’s structure is reinforced as Sculptra Aesthetic helps replace lost collagen. This reinforced collagen structure provides a foundation that gradually restores the look of fullness of your shallow to deep facial wrinkles and folds.
Sculptra Aesthetic is effective in diminishing the appearance of nasolabial folds (the “parenthesis,” or smile lines, along the side of the nose and mouth), marionette lines (vertical wrinkles and folds that form below the corners of the mouth) and chin wrinkles.
A full treatment of Sculptra Aesthetic, an average of three injection sessions over a few months, can last up to two years. The main ingredient is a biocompatible, biodegradable synthetic material that has been used by physicians for decades.
