As we age, collagen production in our skin decreases, leading to volume loss, wrinkles, and sagging. At Martin Plastic Surgery in Las Cruces, NM, we offer Sculptra®, a revolutionary biostimulator that gradually restores lost volume, smooths wrinkles, and enhances facial contours by stimulating your body’s natural collagen production.
Sculptra® is FDA-approved and designed to provide natural, long-lasting results without the need for surgery. If you want to turn back the clock and restore a youthful, rejuvenated appearance, Sculptra® may be the perfect solution for you.
How Sculptra® Works
Sculptra® is made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biodegradable synthetic substance that stimulates collagen production deep within the skin. As Sculptra® is injected, it encourages the body’s own collagen to gradually rebuild the foundation of your skin, restoring lost volume and improving skin texture over time. The effects are subtle at first, but over the course of a few months, you’ll notice a firmer, more youthful appearance.
Unlike traditional dermal fillers, which provide immediate volume, Sculptra® works over time, creating a natural-looking result that improves gradually and lasts for an extended period.
Treatment Areas for Sculptra®
Sculptra® can treat a variety of facial concerns, including:
- Cheeks & Mid-Face: Restores lost volume in the cheeks, providing a youthful, lifted appearance.
- Nasolabial Folds & Marionette Lines: Softens deep lines around the nose and mouth for a smoother, more youthful look.
- Jawline & Chin: Enhances definition and contour of the lower face.
- Temples & Hollow Areas: Adds volume and improves the contour of hollow areas, such as the temples.

100% recommend! Their office is super clean, everyone is very nice and attentive. They make sure to answer all of your questions up until the big day! They even have nurses call you to make sure you’re okay and have any more questions the first night! Recovery was so easy. Dr. Martin is so gentle, i barely felt anything in recovery.

The Sculptra® Treatment Process
A typical Sculptra® session at Martin Plastic Surgery in Las Cruces, NM is quick and minimally invasive. Here’s what you can expect during the treatment:
- Consultation: During your initial consultation, our expert injector will discuss your aesthetic goals and assess your facial structure to determine the best treatment plan for you.
- Preparation: The treatment area will be cleansed, and a topical numbing cream may be applied to ensure comfort during the procedure.
- Injection: Sculptra® is injected into targeted areas using a fine needle. The procedure is generally well-tolerated, and the injections are done carefully to restore natural-looking contours.
- Aftercare: Mild swelling or redness may occur, but it typically subsides within a few hours. You can resume your normal activities immediately, but we recommend avoiding strenuous exercise and direct sun exposure for the first 24 hours.
Is Sculptra® safe?
Yes, Sculptra® is FDA-approved and has been used safely for over a decade. The PLLA in Sculptra® is biocompatible and works naturally with your body to promote collagen production. When administered by a skilled injector, Sculptra® is a safe and effective treatment.
Does Sculptra® hurt?
Most patients report minimal discomfort during the procedure. Sculptra® injections contain a local anesthetic (lidocaine), which helps reduce any pain. For added comfort, a topical numbing cream may also be applied to the treatment area before the procedure.
How soon will I see results?
Results from Sculptra® develop gradually. While you may see some improvement after the first session, full results typically appear over the course of 3 to 6 months as your collagen production is stimulated.
Are there any side effects?
Common side effects include mild redness, swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the injection sites. These effects are temporary and usually resolve within a few days. Serious complications are rare when the treatment is performed by a trained professional.
How many sessions will I need?
For optimal results, most patients need 2 to 3 treatment sessions spaced six weeks apart. During your consultation, we will determine the ideal treatment plan based on your specific needs and aesthetic goals.
Can Sculptra® be combined with other treatments?
Yes, Sculptra® can be combined with other treatments such as Botox®, dermal fillers, or laser therapies for a more comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Your provider can create a personalized treatment plan to achieve your desired results.
How much does Sculptra® cost?
The cost of Sculptra® depends on the number of vials required and the number of treatment sessions needed to achieve your aesthetic goals. We will provide a personalized quote during your consultation.
How Long Do Sculptra® Results Last?
