Combat Crepey Skin
Sculptra is primarily used for facial rejuvenation by stimulating collagen production. While it’s not specifically approved for treating crepey body skin, some providers may use it off-label for this purpose.
Common areas that show good improvement through the use of Sculptra for skin rejuvenation include knees, elbows, abdominal skin, thighs, buttocks.
Crepey skin refers to skin that has become thin, wrinkled, and loose, often resembling the texture of crepe paper. This can occur due to factors such as aging, sun damage, genetics, and loss of collagen and elastin.
Here’s how Sculptra may help improve crepey body skin:
Stimulating Collagen Production: Sculptra works by stimulating the body’s natural collagen production. Collagen is a protein that provides structure and support to the skin. By increasing collagen levels,
Sculptra can help improve skin thickness, elasticity, and firmness, which may reduce the appearance of crepey skin.
Volume Restoration:
Sculptra injections can add volume to areas where crepey skin is a concern. By filling in depressions and wrinkles, Sculptra can help smooth out the skin’s surface and improve its overall appearance.
Gradual and Long Lasting Results: Unlike some other fillers that provide immediate results, Sculptra works gradually over several weeks to months as collagen production increases. While this means that results may take time to become apparent, it also allows for a more natural-looking improvement in skin texture and quality. Sculptra’s effects can last up to two years or more, depending on individual factors such as metabolism and lifestyle. This longevity can provide prolonged improvement in the appearance of crepey skin.
Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling with the Virtue RF can also be used for skin tightening, improving skin texture, and reducing the appearance of wrinkles, scars, and stretch marks.
Target Stubborn Fat
Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling with the Virtue RF can be used for skin tightening, improving skin texture, and reducing the appearance of wrinkles, scars, and stretch marks. While it’s not specifically designed to target fat reduction, it can indirectly help improve the appearance of localized fat deposits, including those around the bra line, chin, jawline, and abdominal fat.
Here’s how RF Microneedling may help with localized fat reduction:
Tightening Loose Skin: RF Microneedling works by delivering heat energy through tiny needles into the deeper layers of the skin. This heat stimulates collagen and elastin production, leading to skin tightening and firming. By tightening loose skin around the desired areas, RF Microneedling can help reduce the appearance of bulges or rolls caused by excess fat.
Improving Skin Texture: In addition to tightening the skin, RF Microneedling can also improve skin texture and smooth out uneven areas. This can help make the skin appear smoother and more toned.
Indirect Fat Reduction: While RF Microneedling itself doesn’t directly target fat cells, the tightening effect it has on the skin can help reduce the appearance of localized fat deposits. By tightening loose skin, RF Microneedling can make the underlying fat appear less noticeable.
Long-lasting Results: RF Microneedling stimulates collagen and elastin production, leading to gradual improvements in skin quality over time. While multiple treatment sessions may be needed to achieve optimal results, the effects of RF Microneedling can last for several months to years, depending on individual factors and maintenance.
Non-Surgical Buttock Augmentation
A Sculptra Buttock Augmentation is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure designed to enhance and lift the buttocks using Sculptra, a biostimulatory filler. Sculptra contains poly-L-lactic acid, which stimulates collagen production when injected into the targeted areas. In a Sculptra butt lift, the product is strategically injected into the buttocks to add volume, improve contour, and lift the tissues.
