REVOLUTIONARY SKIN REJUVENATION

Sculptra is a highly potent and efficient filler that encourages the body's innate collagen production. It effectively smoothens wrinkles and fine lines, enhancing the skin's texture and tone for a more youthful appearance. Unlike typical fillers, Sculptra progressively works its magic over several weeks, causing treated areas to plump up and radiate a youthful glow as collagen production increases. The Maris Aesthetic Clinic highly recommends Sculptra as a remarkable solution for better-looking skin.

WHAT IS SCULPTRA?

Sculptra is an injectable facial filler made from poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible, biodegradable synthetic material. It is used to help restore lost facial volume, improve your facial contours, and reduce wrinkles and facial folds. Sculptra stimulates the production of new collagen in your skin, which helps fill wrinkles and restore volume. It can also help promote the growth of new fat cells, which can help to give your face a more youthful, contoured look.

Sculptra is FDA-approved for use on the face and is typically used for mid-face volume restoration, cheek augmentation, jawline contouring, and chin augmentation. It is an excellent option for those looking for long-lasting, natural-looking results.
