how it works
The simple version
Stimulates Your Own Collagen
Unlike traditional fillers that add volume directly, Sculptra works by stimulating your body's own collagen production, gradually restoring structure and firmness from within.
Builds Over Time
Results appear gradually over weeks to months as collagen builds, rather than all at once — a subtle, natural-looking progression rather than an immediate change.
the experience
What to expect, start to finish
1
Consultation
We review your goals and medical history, and discuss whether Sculptra's gradual approach fits what you're looking for.
2
Treatment
Dr. Goyal performs your treatment in-office, typically 30–45 minutes, often across a series of sessions.
3
Aftercare
Massaging the treated area as directed and avoiding strenuous exercise for 24–48 hours helps support optimal results.
4
Follow-up
We check in as results build over the following weeks and months, and plan any additional sessions.

FAQ
Common questions
How is this different from regular filler?
Regular filler adds volume directly and immediately; Sculptra stimulates your own collagen to rebuild volume gradually over months.
How many sessions will I need?
Most treatment plans involve a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart — your provider will map this out during your consultation.
How long do results last?
Results can last up to two years, though this varies by individual.
