Congratulations on your Sculptra treatment!
Whehter you treated your face or your body, the Sculptra after-care instructions are the same. To insure the best possible results, please follow these after-care tips:
5-5-5 Rule
Massage the treated-areas for 5-minutes, 5-times a day, for 5-days after treatment. This “massage” should consist of mid-pressure rubbing all along the injection sites. These areas might be sore immediately following the treatment, but it is still important to massage the areas anyway. Try to use “slippy” skincare product while administering your massage (our preference is always Alastin Regenerating Skin Nectar) so that your fingers can glide easily over the skin.
No Makeup for 24+ Hours
Please avoid applying makeup for at least 24-hours post-Sculptra, you want to make sure that the injection sites have had enough time to heal before exposing them to any potential germs or bacteria that may be in/on your cosmetics.
Sun Exposure
Please avoid direct exposure to the sun, tanning, and UV sunlamps until any swelling and redness have dissipated.
Avoid other facial treatments: While your body is responding to this treatment, please refrain from undergoing lasers, microneedling, or other facial treatments for 2-week post-Sculptra.
A few days after yourfirst treatment, you may notice that you look the same as you did before treatment:
Don’t worry! This is normal, and temporary! Your body soaks up all of the Sculptra for the first session, and the “magic” occurs after the second treatment.
Sculptra Aesthetic works to gradually replace your lost collagen
Long-lasting results appear about 2-weeks after the second treatment.
Your provider will let you know how many treatments they expect you’ll need to acheive your desired results. Please understand that this is an educated estimate, and depending on how your body responds to treatment you may need slightly more or less than initially advised.
Our goal is to make you happy, and our providers will give you as realistic expectations as possible. ❤️
