Mission Viejo Facial Volume Restoration Orange County Surgical Specialists

As we age, collagen loss leads to hollowing, sagging, and a less youthful appearance. While traditional fillers provide immediate results, they gradually fade. Sculptra offers something different: a bio-stimulatory injectable that works with your body to rebuild collagen, restoring fullness and structure from within for results that evolve naturally and last for years. Led by dual board-certified facial cosmetic surgeon Dr. Reza Bolourian, our Mission Viejo team provides advanced injectable treatments, including Sculptra, with precision and artistry.

What Is Sculptra?

Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible substance that stimulates your skin to produce fresh collagen. Rather than simply filling lines, Sculptra helps rebuild the skin’s underlying structure over time, resulting in firmer, smoother, and more youthful contours.

Treatment is commonly used for:

  • Hollow cheeks and temples
  • Deep facial folds (such as nasolabial folds)
  • Jawline definition
  • General facial volume loss

Because every face is unique, Sculptra requires a skilled injector to place the product strategically for results that enhance your natural features.

Benefits of Sculptra

Sculptra provides a range of long-lasting improvements that make it a favorite among patients seeking gradual, natural results:

  • Collagen Stimulation: Encourages your body to rebuild its own structural support.
  • Long-Lasting Results: Improvements can last up to two years or longer.
  • Natural-Looking Outcome: Gradual enhancement avoids the “overfilled” look.
  • Versatility: Treats multiple areas of facial volume loss.
  • Non-Surgical: Minimally invasive with little to no downtime.

How Sculptra Is Performed

Sculptra treatments are performed in-office and typically take about 30 minutes. A topical numbing agent may be applied for comfort. Using fine needles or cannulas, your injector will place the product in targeted areas of volume loss. After treatment, you may be instructed to massage the treated areas to help evenly distribute the product. Most patients require a series of 2–3 treatment sessions spaced several weeks apart to achieve optimal results.

What to Expect from Sculptra Results

Unlike traditional fillers, results from Sculptra develop gradually as your body produces new collagen. Improvements usually begin to appear within a few weeks, with full results becoming visible after several months. These natural-looking results can last two years or longer.

Recovery and Aftercare

Downtime with Sculptra is minimal. You may experience temporary swelling, redness, or tenderness at the injection sites, which typically resolves within a few days.

Aftercare tips include:

  • Apply ice packs to reduce swelling
  • Massage the treated areas for five minutes, five times a day, for five days (the “5-5-5 rule”)
  • Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours
  • Protect your skin with sunscreen daily
