The word "wrinkly face" makes you think of aging right away. Even though it's something that can happen to everyone, it can really hurt your confidence. Thanks to advances in beauty treatments, there's Sculptra, a product that helps solve the problem of a wrinkly face, bringing back tight and firm skin.
What is Sculptra? How much does it cost? Does it really help fix a wrinkly face and sagging skin? Let's find out in this article.
What causes a wrinkly face?
The main cause of a wrinkly face or sagging skin is the reduction of collagen in the skin. This leads to sagging, loose skin, and wrinkles. Other factors that decrease collagen include smoking, sun exposure, and stress.
Sagging skin problems at different ages
As children, we have bright, firm skin with no wrinkles. But as time goes by, factors like pollution, stress, and skin aging start to cause sagging. Skin problems develop as we age, and they show up in these stages:
Age 30+
At this age, the deeper layers of the skin start to deteriorate. Collagen and elastin break down more, while the top skin layer renews itself more slowly, leading to more visible wrinkles and sagging.
Age 40+
At this age, skin problems go deeper into the fat layer, causing the skin to collapse and sag. The tissues that support the skin also start to weaken.
Age 50+
Wrinkles become deeper, and the skin gets thinner. Sagging and wrinkling increase, and the face's structure changes, making the face look less balanced.
Why is collagen important for skin?
Collagen is a protein that the body produces. It acts like glue, helping to strengthen and make the skin, bones, muscles, and tissues more flexible.
Collagen is found in the dermis (deep skin layer), which is why applying cream doesn't really affect collagen levels.
What happens when collagen decreases?
When collagen levels drop, the skin loses its elasticity, causing problems like:
- Wrinkly face, sagging skin
- Wrinkles
- Loose skin
- Premature aging
- Dull, lifeless skin
How to boost collagen in the skin
You can boost collagen by eating the right foods, getting enough sleep, and exercising. However, one of the most effective ways to stimulate new collagen production is by injecting Sculptra.
What is Sculptra injection?
Sculptra is a product that contains Poly-L-Lactic acid (PLLA), a substance that stimulates natural collagen production. Since 1999, Sculptra has been used in medicine, supported by 50 studies and approved by the U.S. FDA, proving its safety and effectiveness in boosting collagen.
How does Sculptra help?
Sculptra restores the deeper layers of skin, helping to:
- Plump and firm the skin
- Lift and tighten the skin, preventing a wrinkly face
- Make the skin look youthful
- Stronger, healthier skin
- Reduce wrinkles
Sculptra is also great for people who don't have time for frequent injections. If you inject Sculptra once a month for 3 months, the results can last up to 2 years.
