Sculptra is a dermal filler that is designed to correct the signs of aging by stimulating the body’s natural collagen production. Collagen is a protein that is naturally produced by the body and is responsible for providing structure and elasticity to the skin.
As we age, our bodies produce less collagen, leading to the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin. Collagen production decreases with age, causing a loss of skin elasticity and volume.
- Natural, balanced results tailored to your features
- FDA-approved poly-L-lactic acid collagen stimulator
- Personal consultation with Dr. Lauren Nawrocki, DNP
- Minimal downtime
Overview
What to Know About Sculptra in Baltimore
Sculptra is made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), which is a synthetic material that is biocompatible and biodegradable. When Sculptra is injected into the skin, it works by gradually stimulating the body’s own collagen production. This process leads to a gradual and natural-looking improvement in the appearance of the skin. Sculptra helps to replace lost collagen, restore facial volume, and smooth out fine lines and wrinkles.
Unlike other dermal fillers, which are designed to provide immediate results, Sculptra’s gradual process means that it can take several weeks or months to see the full effects of the treatment. However, the results are longer-lasting than those of other fillers, with many patients seeing improvements for up to two years after treatment.
Sculptra is most used to treat the signs of aging on the face, including wrinkles, fine lines, and facial folds. It is particularly effective for people with moderate to severe facial volume loss, which is a common sign of aging. Sculptra can also be used to treat other areas of the body, including the buttocks, thighs, and stomach. In addition to its cosmetic benefits, Sculptra has been used for medical purposes as well. It has been used to treat facial wasting in people with HIV, as well as to improve the appearance of scars and other skin imperfections.
Overall, Sculptra is an effective and unique dermal filler that can provide long-lasting and natural-looking results. Its gradual process and ability to stimulate the body’s own collagen production make it a popular choice for people looking to improve the appearance of their skin.

How is Sculptra different from other dermal fillers?
Sculptra is different from other dermal fillers in several ways. First, it is a gradual process that requires multiple injections over several months. Other dermal fillers, such as hyaluronic acid fillers, provide immediate visible results right after the injection. However, Sculptra’s gradual process results in a more natural-looking and longer-lasting effect.
Second, Sculptra is made from a material different from other dermal fillers. Most dermal fillers are made from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body. However, Sculptra is made from PLLA, a biocompatible and biodegradable material.
Third, Sculptra provides a different type of result than other dermal fillers. While hyaluronic acid fillers fill in wrinkles and lines, Sculptra stimulates the body’s natural collagen production to restore the underlying structure and increase facial volume, providing a more youthful and revitalized appearance.
Dermal Fillers
How is Sculptra Given?
Sculptra is administered through a series of injections. The number of injections needed depends on the treated area and the desired results. The injections are spaced out over a period of several months to allow the body to produce collagen gradually. The entire treatment process usually takes around three to four months.
Before the injections, the treatment area is numbed with a topical anesthetic. The injections are then administered using a fine needle, which takes around 30 minutes to complete. After the injections, patients may experience some swelling, bruising, or redness in the treatment area. These side effects are temporary and usually subside within a few days.
Candidates
Who Is the Best Candidate for Sculptra?
The best candidate for Sculptra is someone who wants to improve the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and facial folds. Sculptra is most effective for people with moderate to severe facial volume loss, making them good candidates for Sculptra. This treatment helps stimulate collagen formation, add volume, and restore a smoother appearance to the face, providing natural-looking and longer-lasting results.
It’s important to note that Sculptra is not recommended for people with a history of keloid scarring, autoimmune diseases, or active infections in the treatment area. It’s also not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women.

sdecarlo3Google review“As this was my 1st time ever looking into getting Botox!! So , glad I choose Green Relief Health .. As, I was so nervous.. they made me feel right at home… as you walk in, you feel so relaxed. It’s so peaceful and calm you check in. It’s all about you. They’re asking if you need anything to drink what all they can help you with … after a quick little wait in the waiting room, Then brought back to a small peaceful quiet room did some before pictures and waiting on Lauren to come in. She was absolutely amazing. We had a mini consultation went over what I wanted to do with my face Which areas, etc. then I was asking her what she would suggest and I love the fact that she doesn’t want you to look too fake plastic she wants you to look Natural… Then we went over some prices we chose what we were gonna do and the price literally was back within A few minutes ready to go … but Absolutely love, the factthey give you a vibrating fidget toy To help calm your nerves as a peaceful, calm music in the background within three minutes she was done. She has such a light hand. You could not feel the needles at all. We went over the aftercare also what I was going to come back for etc., then we had went to the front to check out and pay. We went over the VIP packages. We then scheduled a three week check up appointment as well with face filler just in case I decided to go for doing the face filler but we also scheduled three month Botox appointment and then the six month Botox appointment. My overall experience was perfect. I would totally give them five stars hands-down as I said I don’t need three appointments so that tells it all!!!!!!”
jessica mGoogle review“Lauren is amazing! She explained every aspect of my appointment to me, which put my mind at ease.

Ciara SattizahnGoogle review“Lauren is AMAZING! I had been interested in getting lip filler for YEARS, but couldn’t find a provider whose work I admired. That is, until I found Lauren—her work included the most natural looking lip filler results I’d come across and I couldn’t wait to schedule an appointment. Once the day came, I was nervous and anxious, but Lauren and her staff were so friendly and calming that I knew I had made the right choice and was in great hands. Did I mention they have a number you can text if talking on the phone isn’t your jam? Heaven. I recommend Lauren and her establishment to any and everyone who wants amazing customer service and superior results 💜”
Brittany GladdenGoogle review“Dr. Lauren is incredible! She is honest and wants what is best for her clients. I have gotten lip filler and dysport and I have never been more obsessed with the results. Dr. Lauren kept my lip shape and enhanced them so beautifully. I also love how Dr. Lauren works with you and is honest with your needs and wants. Getting filler and Botox can be very costly and Green Relief works with you on pricing with rewards to get money off. The staff is incredibly nice and the space is super cute and clean. Love love love!!!”

Leah ReneaGoogle review“I just had my 2nd round with the Botox, juvederm. I have really notice my lines are softer and I feel and look younger. I believe. Lauren is not pushy, very knowledgeable and helpful in helping you along your way. She will give you details about each type treatment you agree too . Still no pain from the injections and no bruising as of one week later. I would highly recommend Lauren to any one of my friends, family.”
Deborah CarrollGoogle review“I highly recommend Dr Lauren at Green Relief. I never thought I would look into getting lip filler done but after a prior dental accident I was very self conscious about my smile as my gums are discolored and thought it wouldn’t hurt to having a consult. Having my lips fuller helps hide the discoloration of my gums and I’m so glad that I went with getting them done. Dr Lauren is wonderful. She took the time to educate and explained things to me. I love my smile again. Thank you!”
Meghan SvobodaGoogle review“Words can't describe how top notch this place is. Dr Lauren is a great artist! She is super kind and knowledgeable. This is now my new go to place for fillers and tox. U won't regret it”
Ms KnowItAllGoogle review“My facial with Alaina was absolutely wonderful. She was extremely professional and personable . I loved how she talked me through each step she was doing and explaining the benefits of each product and results I could achieve. I truly felt comfortable and relaxed . Throughout my appointment she asked how my temperature was feeling with heated towels and the chair . I truly appreciated this , because sometimes when having services done in general , I would be too shy to complain or ask to change something and she did not mind at all. I also loved how she cared about my needs and wants future wise for my skin care routine and actually asked me, as well as educated me on things I didn’t even know. She was a pleasure and this was my first facial ever !! I will continue to go back for more! If you want a clean , friendly , and professional esthetician to work on you , I highly recommend services at Green Relief Health ! All staff are professional and extremely educated on any services and questions you may have .”
BrookeGoogle review“I cant put into words how incredibly awesome my facial experience was with Alaina. When I arrived I was full of stress and when I left I could have floated out of there. Alaina herself is pure comfort and beautiful. Her talent and knowledge of the human anatomy is stellar. She is a gift to Green Relief and I recommend her highly. I'm 75 and with just one treament my face is actually glowing. I can't wait until my next appointment. God Bless, Deb Smith”
Debbie SmithGoogle review“I'd definitely recommend this place! Everyone was so friendly and made me feel comfortable from the moment I walked in. They explained everything, answered all my questions, and the whole appointment was quick and easy. My Botox turned out exactly how I wanted—natural-looking and not overdone. I'm really happy with my results and will definitely be coming back! 😊”
Mary LudtkeGoogle review“Lauren , you and your team are professional , efficient and most friendly. Thank you for my summer time botox!!”
Sophia MontgomeryGoogle review“My facial and lash lift with Alaina were amazing!! So in love with my lashes – will definitely be coming back regularly:)”
Kat BensonGoogle review“Lauren makes you feel comfortable and explains the process of getting Botox. I will continue to see her and would recommend her practice.”
Danielle RedmerGoogle review“Lauren N. was very professional and made me feel comfortable for a Dysport injection. I had no issues or bruising, I don’t do them often but will definitely return.”
Pari BondGoogle review“Hello EVERYONE! I am very excited to report my Dysport results. It’s been 10 dayzzzz! All I can say is trust the process. I am still marveling at the transformation. I didn’t understand why I had to wait 2 weeks to see the full effect. At ten days I am good good! I am sold!!! I treated elevens and forehead. Just enough to still look and feel natural.”
riley rossGoogle review“I cannot recommend Alaina at Green Relief Health enough! From the moment you walk in, she makes you feel comfortable, cared for, and completely at ease. Her facials are hands down the best, and today I had my second microneedling session with her and once again I left beyond impressed.
Alaina is kind, informative, thorough, and truly passionate about what she does. She talks you through every step of the process, answers every question with patience, and makes sure you feel confident and educated about your skin care. What I appreciate most is that she always recommends realistic, affordable ways to care for your skin without pushing unnecessary products or treatments.
Not only do you leave feeling rejuvenated because of her technique and expertise, but honestly because of her calming presence as well. She is wonderful at what she does and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to truly invest in their skin and self care!”
Robin BladesGoogle review“Love coming here to get waxed. It’s more affordable compared to other places I’ve looked into. The staff is friendly. They’re very good at accommodating my sensitivities & allergies. I would definitely recommend booking an appointment here.”

03
Understanding Collagen’s Role
Sculptra Aesthetic isn’t your average hyaluronic acid filler or wrinkle filler. It’s a collagen stimulator. As we age, collagen loss can lead to facial wrinkles and loose skin. This treatment jump-starts collagen development, targeting not just the symptoms of facial aging but the cause. With time, this results in thicker, more youthful-looking skin.

Minimal Downtime
Immediately after treatment, patients can return to their daily activities. Patients can return to their normal activities immediately, making it a convenient option. While there might be mild swelling or skin discoloration at the injection sites, these effects are temporary.
05
Natural Results Over Time
Instead of a quick-fix treatment, Sculptra offers a gradual change, providing a youthful appearance over a period of weeks. The production of collagen enhances skin quality, ensuring a beautiful skin texture and youthful bounce.
06

Aftercare
What To Do After Your Sculptra Treatment
After receiving Sculptra treatment, following a few post-treatment care instructions is important to ensure the best possible results. Here are some tips for post-treatment care:
01
Ice the Treated Area
It is common to experience swelling or redness after Sculptra treatment. Applying ice to the treated area for 15 to 20 minutes can help reduce swelling and discomfort. Be sure to wrap the ice pack in a towel or cloth to prevent direct contact with the skin.
02
Avoid Touching or Massaging the Treated Area
After receiving Sculptra, it is important to avoid touching or massaging the treated area for at least 24 hours. This can disrupt the filler and affect the results. Additionally, it is important to avoid applying makeup or other products to the treated area for at least 24 hours.
03
Stay Hydrated
Staying hydrated is important for promoting healthy skin and maintaining the results of Sculptra treatment. Be sure to drink plenty of water and avoid alcohol or caffeine, which can dehydrate the body.
04
Avoid Sun Exposure
After receiving Sculptra treatment, it is important to avoid prolonged sun exposure or tanning beds. Sun exposure can damage the skin and affect the final results of the treatment. If you need to be in the sun, be sure to wear sunscreen with at least SPF 30.
05
Follow Up with Your Provider
Following up with your provider after Sculptra treatment is important to ensure the best possible results. Your provider may recommend additional treatments or adjustments to achieve your desired results.
Overall, following these post-treatment care instructions can help ensure the best possible results from Sculptra treatment. If you have any questions or concerns about post-treatment care, be sure to discuss them with your provider.
