Sculptra: The Long-Lasting Biostimulator from Galderma
Sculptra 2 Vials from Galderma is the leading Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLLA) collagen stimulator – with the longest duration of action among all biostimulators and the most natural, gradual result.
What is Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLLA)?
PLLA is a biodegradable, synthetic polymer that has been used in medicine for decades (e.g., absorbable sutures). In Sculptra, PLLA stimulates the body's own collagen production – without acting as a filler itself.
- No Immediate Effect: Sculptra does not provide immediate volume – the result develops over 3–6 months
- Collagen Stimulation: PLLA microparticles activate fibroblasts to produce collagen
- Biodegradable: PLLA is completely broken down over 2 years
- Duration of Action: Up to 24 months – longest duration of action of all biostimulators
