Ballert Medical is dedicated to providing each patient with the highest and most refined level of care. Sculptra is a cutting-edge facial treatment that’s creating waves in the medical spa industry, which is why Dr. Ballert is eager to introduce this state-of-the-art treatment into his practice.
What is Sculptra?
Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable dermal filler composed of poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible synthetic substance that stimulates collagen production in the skin. Sculptra works gradually over several months, encouraging the body to produce its own collagen to restore facial volume, reduce wrinkles, and improve skin texture. Sculptra is used for facial rejuvenation and non-surgical body contouring procedures, making it a versatile option for those seeking long-lasting aesthetic improvements without surgery.
Conditions Treated with Sculptra
view all conditionsWho is a Candidate
A good candidate for Sculptra is typically someone who is experiencing facial volume loss, deep wrinkles, or skin laxity due to aging and desires a non-surgical solution. Ideal candidates are adults in good overall health, with realistic expectations about the gradual nature of the results, as Sculptra stimulates collagen production over several months. Potential candidates need to consult with a qualified healthcare provider to determine if Sculptra is appropriate for their specific needs and aesthetic goals.
The Sculptra Procedure at Ballert Medical
Unlike traditional dermal fillers, Sculptra works gradually to build collagen, erasing age lines and delivering a lasting, revitalized look. Highly experienced physicians at Ballert Medical ensure a calm and comfortable experience throughout the Sculptra treatment.

Results and Recovery
Following a Sculptra treatment, patients may experience immediate swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites, though these typically subside within a few days. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, initial results may not be immediately apparent as Sculptra works gradually by stimulating collagen production over several months.
Most individuals require multiple sessions spaced several weeks apart to achieve optimal results. Patients are advised to massage the treated areas regularly as directed by their healthcare provider to ensure even product distribution and minimize the risk of nodule formation. While downtime is minimal, it’s essential to avoid strenuous exercise and exposure to excessive heat or sunlight in the days following treatment to promote proper healing.
