Restore Volume & Rebuild Collagen
When injected beneath the skin, it initially fills areas with volume, but the real magic happens over the following weeks as it triggers your natural collagen production. This collagen-rebuilding process continues for months, resulting in gradual, natural-looking improvements that can last up to two years.
On average, for the best results, three Sculptra injections are recommended over a few months’ time (three to four months), but this varies by individual and how much volume you have lost.
For the face, Sculptra commonly targets:
For the body, Sculptra can address:
In general, Sculptra is not recommended for use around the eyes or mouth.
After each Sculptra session, you can expect some swelling and bruising at the injection site. This usually subsides within a few days. You’ll be encouraged to use a wrapped ice pack to reduce swelling or discomfort, especially during the first 24 hours after a Sculptra treatment. Your aesthetic team will also recommend massaging the treated areas several times every day for the first week.
You may notice small bumps or larger lumps under the skin, but these are temporary, and a Sculptra-trained provider can minimize this adverse effect through their precision skills and experience—the injection will be placed in the deep areas of the face, not the superficial layers.
Avoid sunlight and UV lamps while healing and, of course, use sunscreen.
You’ll see benefits within the first month but you should know that temporary wrinkles may reappear as swelling resolves. Time and additional treatments will improve your appearance as collagen growth continues to happen behind the scenes.
Restored collagen will produce long-lasting results that appear naturally and gradually, and can last for up to two years or longer. We are treating the cause of fine lines and wrinkles, not just the symptoms!

The best place for Sculptra injections for the buttocks, face, and other trouble areas is Quintessa! Quintessa Aesthetic Centers can be found in five regional locations: Brookfield, Delafield, Middleton, Mequon, and Sheboygan.
Our experienced aesthetic clinicians are trained in Sculptra’s state-of-the-art techniques for addressing issues related to sagging skin, whether it’s from weight loss or aging. With specialized training and years of experience, our providers ensure safe, effective treatments customized to your unique aesthetic goals.
Sculptra treatment costs vary depending on the treatment area and number of sessions required for optimal results. Since most patients need a series of three treatments over several months, your Quintessa specialist will create a personalized treatment plan during your consultation with a complete cost breakdown.
Sculptra stimulates your body’s collagen production gradually, and results can last up to two years or more. Because it rebuilds the underlying structure of the skin, patients at Quintessa often enjoy natural, long-lasting volume and smoother contours without looking “done.”
The 5-5-5 rule means massaging the treated area for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days following your Sculptra injection. At Quintessa, we stress this simple aftercare step to help evenly distribute the product and support smooth, natural collagen development.
While there’s no one-size-fits-all age, many Quintessa patients in their 30s to 50s choose Sculptra to address early volume loss or hollowing. It’s especially effective for those wanting subtle, gradual rejuvenation without the instant plumpness of traditional fillers.
You, like most patients, might benefit best from a series of two to three treatment sessions, spaced over a few months. The number of treatments depends on how much collagen you’ve lost, and your provider at Quintessa will tailor the plan to match your facial structure and goals.
Sculptra doesn’t change your face shape—it restores what time has taken away. By encouraging new collagen production in deeper layers, it gradually replenishes volume in areas like the cheeks, temples, and jawline, helping you look refreshed and more youthful.
Sculptra and traditional dermal fillers serve different purposes. While fillers offer instant volume, Sculptra works over time by stimulating collagen for longer-lasting, more natural-looking results. At Quintessa, our trained providers can help you choose the right option—or a combination—for your goals.
NON-SURGICAL SOLUTIONS
There are some concerns with placing fat injections at the same location as Sculptra injections. We have performed fat injections in areas of prior Sculptra and have found that it is not only more difficult to perform due to some significant fibrous side effects of the Sculptra injection, but we do have significant concern over the long term viability of this fat due to the inflammation that must be present in that area.
There are some unknowns here, too. Sculptra gets its volumetric enhancement through the inflammatory response that the patient has to the actual Sculptra product. With this additional inflammation in the tissue, it is unclear as to whether this negatively or even positively will affect the viability of transferred fat.
With that said, there is no problem whatsoever performing fat transfer injections into other areas of the face where Sculptra has not been placed. This should in no way affect the result of the fat and can give the patient the desired result.
