Have you noticed your face looking a little flatter, less defined, or simply not as refreshed as it used to be? Collagen loss starts earlier than most people realize, and it can quietly change facial shape over time.
If you’re frustrated by these changes, Sculptra Aesthetic® could be an excellent solution. It uses poly-L-lactic acid to boost your body’s natural collagen production over time.
At Timeless Youth MD in West Des Moines, Sculptra injections are guided by Dr. Melissa Young, a physician and surgeon with more than 30 years of hands-on medical experience and deep anatomical knowledge. Here are some areas often treated with Sculptra.
Cheeks and Midface
Volume loss in the cheeks often makes the face seem flatter or more tired over time. Sculptra helps rebuild collagen in the midface, improving contour and providing a subtle lift. Restoring this area can also support surrounding features, creating a more balanced, refreshed appearance.
Temples
Hollow temples are a common but often overlooked sign of aging. When volume diminishes in this area, the face can appear drawn or gaunt. Sculptra works well in the temples by gradually replenishing collagen, softening hollows while maintaining a natural transition between the forehead and cheeks.
Jawline
A less-defined jawline is often linked to collagen loss rather than skin laxity alone. Sculptra can strengthen the foundation along the jawline, improving definition and reducing the appearance of sagging. Results develop slowly, helping changes blend seamlessly with your natural facial structure.
Chin
The chin is essential to overall facial harmony. Sculptra can enhance chin structure, improve projection, and balance facial proportions without creating an artificial look. Over time, collagen stimulation helps maintain these improvements.
Lower Face and Smile Lines
As collagen decreases, folds around the mouth and lower face become more noticeable. Sculptra addresses this area by restoring underlying support rather than simply filling lines, leading to smoother transitions and softer contours over time.
