Sculptra — Phuket | Lushwood Clinic

SculptraはPLLAのバイオスティミュレーターで、自己コラーゲンを再活性化し、18〜24ヶ月かけて徐々に自然に若返らせます

Overview

Sculptraはポリ-L-乳酸（PLLA）のバイオスティミュレーターです。従来のフィラーと違い即時のボリュームを足すのではなく、肌が自らの新しいコラーゲンを作るよう徐々に促し、ふっくら感を取り戻し、しわをやわらげ、自然で段階的な若返りをもたらします。18〜24ヶ月持続する、さりげなく分からない仕上がりに最適で、通常は4〜8週間おきに2〜3回行います。

How it works

PLLAを適切な層に注入すると、その粒子が線維芽細胞を刺激し、数週間かけて新たなコラーゲンを生成します。施術後の「5-5-5」マッサージが均一な広がりを助けます。

Results & Timeline

Sculptra (Poly-L-Lactic Acid) prompts the body to build new collagen from within — skin firms gradually from 4-8 weeks, peaks at 3-6 months and lasts 12-24+ months (typically 18-24). It is usually planned over 2-3 sessions 4-8 weeks apart, then reviewed yearly.

How it compares

Sculptra (PLLA) rebuilds overall skin structure and firmness naturally — ideal for long-term skin restoration; HA filler shapes and adds volume at specific points with fast, precise results; Ulthera/Ultraformer (HIFU) focus on energy-based lifting. Lushwood often designs a combo: firm skin structure with Sculptra + defined contour with HIFU + shaping where needed with filler.

Aftercare

• Apply a cold compress on day one if slightly swollen/tight
• Gently massage per the doctor's guidance (5-5-5: 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days — adjusted per case)
• Avoid alcohol/intense heat/sauna for 24-48 hours
• Use sunscreen consistently
• Drink more water to support collagen production

Safety & who should avoid

• Performed by experienced doctors using genuine product only (PLLA has decades of medical use)
• Postpone/avoid if pregnant or breastfeeding
• Active infection at the injection site
• History of severe allergy/certain hypersensitivities
• Conditions requiring special consideration (assessed per case)
