What is Sculptra?

Sculptra is a poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) collagen stimulator that gradually restores facial volume and firmness by helping your skin build its own collagen. Results develop over months and can last up to around two years. At Louave in Cheongdam, Gangnam, Seoul, the dermatologist plans a course for natural, progressive results.

Your appointment

The Sculptra process at Louave

✦

Consultation

A board-certified dermatologist examines your skin and confirms Sculptra is right for you.

Preparation

A consultation with the dermatologist, a review of your health and medicines, cleansing and numbing cream where needed.

Treatment

Fine, precise injections into the treatment area. Most people feel only brief pinching.

Aftercare

Massage the area as instructed (often the “5-5-5” rule: 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days) to spread the product evenly. Mild swelling settles in a few days.
