Restore Natural Volume and Collagen From Within
Sculptra Treatment in Sarasota & Bradenton
At Injections and Co., we offer Sculptra treatments, which is designed to gradually restore youthful fullness and enhance your skin’s structure. We're Located in Sarasota, and serving clients across Bradenton and Lakewood Ranch. Our clinic specializes in natural-looking, long-lasting rejuvenation that rebuilds collagen for results that evolve beautifully over time.
Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers that add instant volume, Sculptra works differently. It uses poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible substance that stimulates your body’s own collagen production, improving facial contours, texture, and firmness for up to two years or more.
What Is Collagen?
Collagen is a vital fibrous protein that gives your skin its structure, firmness, and smooth appearance. It acts as the natural support system beneath the surface, keeping your skin resilient and youthful. Over time, your body’s collagen production slows — by the age of 40, most people have lost up to 20% of their natural collagen, leading to visible signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles, and skin laxity.
Sculptra® works by gently stimulating your body’s own collagen production. Its key ingredient, poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA-SCA), creates a supportive framework within the skin that helps rebuild volume and reinforce structure from within. The result is smoother, firmer, more radiant skin — naturally restored over time, not instantly filled.
Why Collagen Matters
Collagen isn’t just about smoother skin, it’s what gives your face its lift, contour, and youthful elasticity. When collagen levels decline, the skin begins to thin and lose its ability to “bounce back,” creating hollowness and sagging around the cheeks, temples, and jawline. By rebuilding this essential foundation, Sculptra helps restore volume and firmness from within, resulting in subtle, long-lasting rejuvenation that enhances your natural features rather than changing them.
At Injections & Co., our approach focuses on collagen restoration that works with your body, not against it, giving you a refreshed, confident appearance that continues to improve for months after treatment.
How Sculptra Works
Sculptra’s unique formulation of poly-L-lactic acid is injected into the deep dermis where collagen naturally forms. Over several weeks, the PLLA microparticles stimulate new collagen growth, gradually improving volume and skin firmness.
Most patients see optimal results after a series of three sessions, spaced about 4–6 weeks apart. The changes appear gradually, making results look natural and refined — your friends will notice you look refreshed, not “done.”
