Sculptra Injections In Chicago

When you enter our clinic, our friendly team will welcome you and take all the necessary time to discuss your individual journey. One of our licensed injectors, led by Dr. Dayan, will examine your skin, discuss your medical history, and answer any questions. This is our chance to get to know you and your treatment goals to develop a customized treatment plan.

Getting ready for your Sculptra® injections is relatively straightforward and requires minimal preparation. Keeping the skin clean and avoiding excessive sun exposure are generally recommended, and scheduling your appointment for the end of the day or taking the day off work.

The day of your appointment is the day towards a new self. When you come to our Chicago clinic, we will apply a local anesthetic to numb and prevent any discomfort. Our specialist then injects the Sculptra® into the soft tissue where the desired effect is targeted. A typical treatment takes between 15 to 60 minutes.

Sculptra® injections are minimally invasive; patients can return home immediately after treatment. While most people return to normal activities the following day, it’s crucial to understand that each individual’s healing journey is unique.

Our commitment to your comfort during recovery means taking a few simple precautions. Since local anesthetic and injections can lead to some swelling and bruising, we recommend avoiding strenuous exercise and alcohol for a day. To facilitate the healing process, consider applying ice and gently massaging the treatment area up to five times daily.

Our post-care treatment guidance encompasses essential aspects, such as managing skin sensitivity, ensuring proper hygiene, and staying well-hydrated. We are here for you on every step of your healing journey and will address any issues immediately.

Sculptra® is ideal for men and women seeking a natural solution to address fine lines, wrinkles, and volume loss, especially for those wanting subtle, gradual improvements. Candidates should be in good health and have realistic expectations, as Sculptra® is designed to enhance your natural features, not alter them drastically.

This treatment is also an excellent option for those who have experienced facial volume loss due to significant weight loss. However, it may not be suitable for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding, or for those with active skin infections or certain medical conditions. To confirm Sculptra® is right for you, we recommend a personalized consultation with our team to assess your unique needs and goals.

Many parts of the face can benefit from injections. These include:

• Marionette lines
• Wrinkles near the eyes
• Smile lines
• Jawline
• Temples
• Cheeks

In each of these areas, we can provide volume for a more youthful appearance. But it's important to remember that the face relies on symmetry; this means that if you want to fill in your cheek hollows, we may also recommend you do the same in your temples to maintain balance. Along the jaw, we can redefine contours and give you a more symmetrical appearance.

Sculptra® is a synthetic material that stimulates the natural production of collagen in your skin, making it a great natural alternative to other fillers. Patience is a virtue, and results won’t happen overnight. As your body’s own collagen production is stimulated, fine lines, wrinkles, and our skin’s volume gradually change to a rejuvenated and more youthful appearance. However, knowing that your body is regenerating from the inside out can boost your confidence and self-esteem from day one.
