Hello.

This is Director Wi Young-jin.

​

​

Sculptra is a procedure that stimulates collagen production within the skin.

​

​

It does not work by injecting immediate volume like fillers

but rather helps the skin naturally

to replenish over time, which is

its main feature.

​

​

After the procedure

approximately 6 weeks to 9 weeks later

the collagen regeneration process starts

​

around 3 months

you can definitely feel the changes.

​

​

There are individual differences

but in cases where it is well maintained

the effects can last up to 2 years.

​

It has been gaining popularity recently

but in fact, Sculptra has been used globally

for quite some time

so you can consider it a proven procedure for safety.

​

​

​

How much treatment can be done with one bottle of Sculptra?

This is the part that many people

are most curious about.

​

​

The dosage of Sculptra is

precisely calculated in bottle units.

​

​

Because ultimately what is injected into the skin

is the number of particles.

​

​

To put it simply

think of whether sugar cubes were dissolved in a large cup

or in a shot glass.

That is the difference.

​

​

If you dissolve it in a large cup, it may appear to have a lot

but the concentration becomes diluted and the effect is weak

​

if you dissolve it in a shot glass

the concentration is high, and you can definitely feel the effect.

​

​

So even if the price may seem cheap

if there are not enough particles actually going in

it may be difficult to achieve the desired results.

​

​

To be honest

if the price is excessively low

I find it hard to recommend.

​

​

When receiving consultations

it is better to check not just the price

but also whether genuine products are being used.

Now let me tell you the possible scope with one bottle of Sculptra.

​

​

🍀Nasolabial folds

🍀Marionette lines

🍀Temporal area

​

This is the typical range.

​

​

Especially in the temporal area

the difficulty level of the procedure is high

​

and many places do not perform

it well.

​

​

There is a risk of nodules if done incorrectly.

​

​

However, a qualified specialist with plenty of experience

can perform this safely,

​

and there are indeed clinics that regularly carry out this procedure.

In conclusion,

it is certainly possible to achieve meaningful changes with just one bottle of Sculptra

​

but if you want full facial lifting or

body treatment you should consider

2 to 3 bottles or more.

​

​

This part is best discussed directly with a specialist

to plan appropriately.

​

​

If you tell them your skin condition and the areas you want to target

you can receive more accurate information on how many bottles you will need.

​

​

Areas besides the face where Sculptra can be used

Sculptra is not just used on the face

it is also utilized for body contour improvement.

​

​

🍀Buttocks (hip dip)

​

It fills in the sunken areas between the pelvis and thighs

to create a three-dimensional curve.

​

​

🍀Inner and outer thighs

​

It is good for enhancing elasticity and

refining smooth lines.

​

​

🍀Arms and upper arm area

​

It adds density and elasticity to the areas that become thin and sunk as you age.

​

​

🍀Skin above the knees

​

It is also used when fine wrinkles or skin elasticity degradation

become noticeable.

​

​

The Mapo Station Dermatology Clinic offers

consultations not only for the face but also for body Sculptra,

so if you are interested, it may be good to inquire.

​

​

Points to be careful about during the procedure

Sculptra can rarely cause nodules during the collagen-promoting process,

which are uneven lumps.

​

​

This usually occurs when the hydration process before the procedure

was insufficient, or

the drug was not evenly distributed.

​

​

So there are really important points to note.

​

​

🍀Make sure it is a genuine product used in units of 1 bottle

​

🍀Whether a skilled specialist is injecting it evenly

​

​

These two points must be confirmed.

​

​

Ultimately, the results and satisfaction depend on

the experience and skill of the medical staff.

​

​

When choosing the Mapo Station Dermatology Clinic,

it is important to check whether there is an experienced specialist

and whether genuine products are guaranteed.

Commonly asked questions about Sculptra

(Q&A)

Q. Is it possible to do a full facial treatment with one bottle of Sculptra?

​

To be honest, it is difficult.

​

To improve the entire face,

usually 2 to 3 bottles or more are needed,

and one bottle is more suitable for improving specific areas.

Q. How is it different from fillers?

​

Fillers provide immediate volume

but Sculptra helps the skin produce collagen

over time.

​

So it is chosen when you want a much more natural

and gradual change.

Q. How long does the effect last?

​

It varies from person to person

but it is generally said to last up to 2 years.

Q. Are there any side effects?

​

Rarely nodules can occur,

but this can be prevented by the skill level of the injector

and whether genuine products are used.
