Your facial structure continues to grow and develop from birth until about your early 20s. Even with UV avoidance and an excellent program of skin care, your skin begins to lose firmness and elasticity throughout the rest of your life. You may begin to notice fine lines and wrinkles initially, then crow’s feet, forehead creases, lip lines, chin crinkles, and folds from your nose to the corners of your mouth. Think there is nothing you can do about it? Think again. You can call Darst Dermatology to learn more about Sculptra Aesthetic. Your skin derives structure from collagen. This fibrous protein also helps your skin retain hyaluronic acid, a natural lubricant, and elastin, an elastic protein, for youthful firmness. With the passage of time, your body produces less collagen, which means less elastin and hyaluronic acid are maintained. These changes show as dry-looking skin and wrinkles.

Experienced dermatologists have long used dermal fillers to reverse these signs of aging by plumping wrinkles and enhancing lost fullness. But Sculptra Aesthetic takes facial rejuvenation a step further. The primary component of this injectable is poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible, biodegradable synthetic substance that doesn’t require allergy testing like human or animal components. Sculptra doesn’t simply fill wrinkles – it also induces your body to replace lost collagen.

Sculptra is a terrific solution to improve the appearance of chin wrinkles; marionette lines that frame your mouth; and nasolabial folds or smile lines from the nose to mouth. It does so in a subtle, gradual process through a series of treatments over the course of a few months. Sessions are brief and convenient, with rare, minor side effects and little down time. Beautiful results last up to two years!

If you are the type of person who doesn’t want to hear people say, “Wow, what did you have done?” . . . if you want your friends to think, “How does she stay so young looking?”. Then Sculptra could be perfect for you. Call Darst Dermatology today for a consultation.
