Collagen Stimulators
Collagen Stimulators
Sculptra is a popular injectable cosmetic filler that improves the appearance of the skin. With Sculptra, you can restore lost volume due to aging or illness. As opposed to fillers, collagen stimulators are more effective in stimulating collagen production. Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) is the active ingredient in Sculptra, a biocompatible synthetic substance that induces collagen production. Sculptra can provide you with a more youthful appearance by treating deep creases, lines, and folds.
