Sculptra near Rotterdam
Sulptra is a collagen-stimulating injectable treatment, which can help with volume loss, deep wrinkles, lines and sagging skin. By stimulating your body to produce collagen again, we give your skin back its firmness and volume. The result is thicker skin, improved skin texture and fewer wrinkles and lines.
The treatment may look similar to classic filler treatments with hyaluronic acid, but Sculptra works slightly differently. Because your body does some of the work to restore volume, it is more efficient than trying to get the same amount of volume with fillers. Plus, you'll enjoy Sculptra for longer: 24 - 48 months on average, especially if you maintain the treatment.
However, you do have to wait a while for the results. Whereas with filler you see an immediate difference, with Sculptra the body has to produce the collagen first. This, on the other hand, makes it very natural, as your appearance does not change drastically all at once after one treatment.
Our clinic in Bergschenhoek, near Rotterdam, only employs specialists who go for natural results. They can advise you on the possibilities and are happy to give you honest advice.

What is the aftercare after a Sculptra treatment?
To ensure optimal results and a gradual, long-lasting effect of Sculptra, it is important to follow your doctor’s aftercare instructions. Recommendations for aftercare include the following:
Massage the treated areas for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for the first 5 days after your treatment. Do this as directed by your doctor. Use a moisturizer to reduce friction during the massage.
Apply a cold compress wrapped in gauze or cloth (do not apply ice directly to the skin) for the first 24 hours after your treatment. This will help reduce any swelling.
You may wear makeup for a few hours after your Sculptra treatment, provided there are no complications (open wounds or bleeding).
Avoid sun exposure and UV tanning lamps until swelling and redness have subsided.
Avoid saunas/steam baths for 24 hours.
The effect of the Sculptra treatment will be visible after approximately 6 weeks.
For the best results, 2 or more (repeat) treatments are recommended. The doctor will discuss with you how many treatments you may need for your desired result. The effect of Sculptra remains visible for an average of 2 years. However, this depends on age, lifestyle and each person's personal collagen production.
What are possible risks of Sculptra treatment?
You may feel bumps under the skin immediately after the treatment. This is often swelling and will disappear within four weeks. If the bump remains noticeable for longer, it may be a small accumulation of the material used (polu-L-lactic acid) that has not been able to distribute evenly. These bumps take longer to disappear completely.
If a Sculptra bump does develop, it can cause discoloration of the skin. There are known cases where these bumps, also known as granulomas, have developed a year after the treatment. They can occur with an incorrect injection technique or when the area has not been massaged sufficiently. However, there are dilution massage techniques that can help to remedy Sculptra side effects if they occur. It is therefore extremely important to have your Sculptra treatment performed by a specialized cosmetic doctor.
Finally, keloid formation and hypertrophic scars can occur after a Sculptra treatment. Sculptra works by stimulating collagen; the biggest cause of keloid formation. If you are sensitive to this, consult your doctor to see if a Sculptra treatment is suitable for you.
When and for how long will you see results from Sculptra?
After your Sculptra treatment, your body needs to do the work of producing more collagen. The first visible changes are visible on average three months after your treatment. After four to six months after your treatment, the results are often optimal.
You will then enjoy your Sculptra treatment for 2-3 years.
How does sculptra treatment work?
A Sculptra treatment consists of a number of injections that are performed by a doctor. Before the treatments, your goals are discussed and the areas that need to be treated are determined. Based on this, the injection sites are marked where the Sculptra is injected. For many people, it is a painless, quick treatment that takes about 30 minutes. After the injection, the area is briefly massaged so that the Sculptra can spread well and any bumps are prevented. You can continue to massage the area yourself for the first week after the treatment. The doctor will show you how.
You can often resume your daily activities immediately after your treatment. It is normal to see extra volume in the areas where the injection was performed. This will disappear within a few days. The same applies to any bruising and swelling. If necessary, you can camouflage these with some make-up.
