Sculptra® in Toledo

Patients who receive a Sculptra® in Toledo in a series should expect to see improvement within four to eight weeks of treatment, but full results might not be seen for up to nine months.

Typically, patients require approximately four to six Sculptra® treatments spaced six weeks apart to see significant improvement in their wrinkles or hollowed facial characteristics. Generally, one maintenance treatment per year is recommended to maintain results.

The main side effect that patients experience is mild to moderate swelling or occasional bruising. Some notice temporary numbness or redness, palpable lumps, or firm areas at the injection sites. Most conditions can be alleviated with topical icing and will improve within hours or a few days after treatment. Be sure to discuss your recovery and treatment plan with your provider so you know what reactions to anticipate and how to properly care for the treatment areas.

Recovery time varies for each patient. Most activities can be resumed right away, but it is generally recommended that you avoid intense physical activity for the first 24-48 hours after your treatment to minimize swelling and bruising.

Since this injectable filler regenerates your body’s collagen production, results can last for more than two years.  As with all aesthetic procedures at EVOLV, a personalized medical skin care program can extend your treatment results significantly.
