What is Sculptra Aesthetic?
As we age, natural volume loss—especially in the cheeks—can leave the face looking hollow and flat. At AestheticFX Med Spa, Beverly Farris, FNP-C, and our expert team offer Sculptra Aesthetic, a poly-L-lactic acid-based dermal filler that restores long-lasting volume to the mid-face. Besides replenishing fullness, Sculptra smooths moderate to deep wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial lines (smile lines). This FDA-approved treatment stimulates your body’s own collagen production, resulting in a healthier, more youthful complexion that continues to improve even after sessions end. Typically, 2 to 3 sessions spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart are recommended depending on your individual needs. Schedule your consultation at our Frisco, TX Med Spa to learn how Sculptra can enhance your look.

Who is a Candidate for Sculptra?
Sculptra suits adults aiming to restore facial volume and reduce deep wrinkles or folds in the mid-face without surgery. It’s ideal for those wanting natural enhancements without invasive procedures. During your consultation, share any skin conditions, previous injectables, allergies, or health concerns so we can create a safe, personalized treatment plan just for you.
How Are Sculptra Injections Performed?
Following your consultation, you’ll receive Sculptra injections in one of our private treatment rooms. A numbing cream or local anesthetic may be applied before cleansing and marking the injection sites. The filler is carefully injected into deeper skin layers at targeted points. For best results, Beverly Farris and the AestheticFX team usually recommend 3-4 sessions spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart at our Frisco, TX facility.
What to Expect After Sculptra
After treatment, you may notice mild swelling, redness, bruising, or tenderness around injection areas, which typically resolve in a few days. Applying cold compresses can ease discomfort. Avoid excessive sun exposure and use sunscreen post-treatment. Many patients see immediate improvements, with full results developing over several months as collagen builds. When done as a series, effects can last up to two years.
Sculptra FAQs
How much does Sculptra cost?
Cost depends on the amount of product and number of sessions needed to meet your goals. During your consultation, we will customize a treatment plan tailored to your budget and aesthetic objectives.
How does Sculptra work?
Sculptra contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) that triggers your body to produce collagen. This natural collagen rebuilds skin structure and volume, reducing wrinkles and lines gradually over time.
Are Sculptra injections safe?
FDA-approved and widely used since the late 1990s, Sculptra has a strong safety profile. Side effects are uncommon but may include mild pain, bruising, redness, or inflammation. Occasionally, small bumps under the skin may appear when pressure is applied. Contact our Med Spa if you notice any unusual or persistent reactions.
