Sculptra in South Miami and Kendall, FL

Sculptra works deep in the skin to improve its inner structure to smooth facial wrinkles.

Restore Youthful Volume with Sculptra Aesthetic

As we age, natural volume loss beneath the skin can lead to visible signs like hollow cheeks, deep folds, and sagging skin. While youthful faces are full and lifted, the aging process causes our collagen levels to drop, leading to a deflated or tired appearance. At our South Miami aesthetics clinic, Liana Baixauli, APRN offers Sculptra® Aesthetic, a powerful biostimulatory injectable that rebuilds lost volume by stimulating your body’s own collagen production. This non-surgical treatment delivers long-lasting, natural-looking rejuvenation—without the need for downtime.

Sculptra treatments in South Miami

What Is Sculptra?

Sculptra is not your typical dermal filler. Rather than just filling lines temporarily, Sculptra works deep beneath the skin to stimulate collagen production, rebuilding your facial structure gradually over time.

  • FDA-approved injectable made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA)
  • Designed to restore volume and improve facial contours
  • Results develop gradually over 3–6 months
  • Effects can last up to 2 years or longer

What Does Sculptra Treat?

Sculptra is ideal for treating areas affected by age-related volume loss, including:

  • Nasolabial folds (smile lines between the nose and mouth)
  • Marionette lines (lines that run downward from the corners of the mouth)
  • Cheeks and midface hollowness
  • Temples
  • Jawline and chin
  • Pre-auricular area (in front of the ears)
Note: Sculptra is not used around the eyes or lips—for those areas, hyaluronic acid fillers like Restylane are more appropriate.

Why Choose Sculptra?

Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers that offer instant plumping, Sculptra works with your body to rebuild collagen from within, producing a more gradual and natural-looking enhancement. Benefits include:
 
  • A lifted, firmer appearance
  • Improved skin texture and tightness
  • Softened wrinkles and folds
  • No surgery or downtime required
