It is normal for your butt to lose its natural lift and plumpness as you get older, lose weight, or after having a baby. This is because of fat loss and a natural decrease in collagen production. Sculptra Aesthetic is a cosmetic treatment that can safely help you get back what you have lost without surgery or risk of major complications.
What is Sculptra Aesthetic?
Sculptra is an injectable dermal filler that is FDA-approved to treat collagen loss. It is a non-surgical, minimally invasive, low-risk treatment for enhancing the curve and shape of your buttocks. Treatments target your buttocks and gluteal area.
How Does it Work?
Unlike fillers that contain hyaluronic acid, volume is not immediately added to the treated area. Instead, Sculptra’s key ingredient is Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), which is a sugar molecule that works to kick-start your body’s own natural collagen production. It can take several weeks to months over a series of injections to improve the volume and shape of your buttocks.
What Are the Possible Risks or Side Effects?
There are only minimal risks and side effects associated with a Sculptra butt lift, including
- Bleeding at the injection site
- Bruising or redness
- Temporary lumps or bumps
- Temporary acne, rash or itching near the injection site
For the best results, you may be asked to avoid strenuous exercise and alcohol for the first few days after treatment.
