Sculptra® Aesthetic for Men in The Woodlands, TX

Volume loss occurs naturally during the aging process, especially in the middle of the face as the cheeks become hollow and flat. Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Melissa Chiang and board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Younghoon Cho offer Sculptra Aesthetic, a poly-L-lactic acid-based dermal filler that helps to add longer-lasting, deeper volume in the mid-face. Additionally, Sculptra can help to decrease the appearance of shallow to deep lines and wrinkles, including the nasolabial folds (also known as smile or laugh lines) that run from the edges of the nose down to the corners of the mouth. With its unique gel formula approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Sculptra stimulates the natural collagen production in your body to provide smoother, healthier skin. Schedule a consultation at Chiseled in The Woodlands, TX to learn more about the advantages of this injectable treatment.

Chiseled is also excited to offer nonsurgical butt lifts with Sculptra injections. You might be a good candidate for butt augmentation with Sculptra if you'd like a fuller, rounder buttocks without surgery. Nonsurgical butt augmentation may help if you have a naturally flat buttocks or if you've lost volume because of age or significant weight loss. Many patients in The Woodlands, TX area prefer nonsurgical butt augmentation over the time and cost required by a surgical butt augmentation that uses implants or a fat transfer (Brazilian butt lift). During your consultation, we'll discuss your options after listening to your concerns and goals.

Because Sculptra is so versatile, it offers men a number of great benefits to restore and enhance their appearance. A customized Sculptra treatment plan at Chiseled can help:

• Restore volume loss
• Reduce deep creases, lines, and wrinkles
• Enhance the buttocks for a fuller, more muscular look
• Refresh and rejuvenate the appearance
• Support skin health
• Provide natural-looking, long-lasting results
• No surgery or scarring
• Little to no recovery time
• FDA-approved

Sculptra can be ideal for patients who want to boost volume in their cheeks without implants and surgery. Some candidates may have naturally hollow cheeks, while others had full cheeks that have deflated with age. Sculptra dermal filler may also be used to treat fine to deep facial wrinkles and lines, like chin wrinkles, marionette lines, and nasolabial folds. Since Sculptra's formula works to increase the natural production of collagen in the skin, most patients will see a visible improvement in the overall health and appearance of their complexion.

After your consultation to create your custom treatment plan, you will receive your injections in one of our minor procedure rooms. Your injector can use a numbing cream or local anesthetic prior to cleaning and marking the sites to be injected. As soon as you're ready, we'll inject Sculptra into the deeper layers of skin at the chosen sites. For longer-lasting results, Dr. Chiang and Dr. Cho suggest a series of four treatments spaced three weeks apart.

Following your Sculptra treatment, you may experience mild to moderate redness, swelling, tenderness, or bruising at the injection sites, but these symptoms should subside on their own in several days. To encourage healing, you may apply cold packs to the injection sites. You should limit UV exposure as much as possible after your injection and should always use sunscreen. Many patients will notice visible improvements right after their treatment with final results appearing after 3 – 5 months, once the natural production of collagen has had a chance to strengthen the skin. If performed as a series over the course of 3 – 4 months, your results may last up to two years.

Is Sculptra safe?

Sculptra has a long history of safety and is approved by the FDA for cosmetic use. While reported side effects include some discomfort, bruising, and swelling, this is normal and temporary. Speak with a member of our team at Chiseled if you are concerned about these side effects.

What about BOTOX®?

Sculptra is a dermal filler that produces long-term results. On the other hand, BOTOX is a wrinkle relaxer that temporarily relaxes the underlying muscles. While some of the results may seem similar, fillers may be better for producing fuller and more defined features. Dr. Cho can let you know which is best for your needs.

What's the best age to get Sculptra?

Any adult who wants to soften facial lines and deep creases in the face may be a candidate for Sculptra. Generally, our clinic helps male patients between the ages of 30 and 55 get their best results. Of course, it's also possible for men who are younger and older to receive Sculptra injections.

How much does Sculptra cost?

The cost of your treatment will depend on several factors, including the number of injections needed and the desired results. During a Sculptra consultation at Chiseled, we can review the total cost of your sessions. We offer flexible payment options and accept a variety of payment methods for your convenience.

Does Sculptra hurt?

Sculptra injections are relatively painless, as the product contains a numbing agent. If you're still feeling anxious about discomfort during your appointment, we can provide topical numbing cream to help reduce any potential discomfort. Additionally, our team in The Woodlands, TX is highly skilled in ensuring injections are administered with accuracy and precision.
