STEP BY STEP PROTOCOL
01
INFORMATION SESSION AND MEDICAL ASSESSMENT
After reviewing your medical questionnaire, your treating professional will give you all the information you need about L-polylactic acid, commonly known as Sculptra, and then proceed to a full medical evaluation. It will start with taking pictures from different angles, visual analysis, palpation, delineating your anatomy and listing the needs associated with your specific goals. Your skin should be thoroughly cleansed to facilitate the assessment.
02
PERSONALIZED TREATMENT PLAN
Your professional will create a personalized treatment plan for you with the number of sessions necessary to achieve the best results for the treatment of skin laxity. As soon as you are ready to do the treatment, you will need to schedule your appointment for a later date as recommended by your professional. The Sculptra must be prepared in advance by dilution in order to obtain the best results of collagen production.
03
TREATMENT AND MASSAGE
Before your appointment, you will be able to apply an anesthetic cream to the treated area. Your treating professional will trace the marks delimiting your anatomical landmarks and proceed with the treatment. This area will be completely disinfected using compresses and an alcohol solution. Then, the injections will be made according to your needs, using a needle or a cannula. Your treatment will end with a light massage to even out the product.
04
POST-TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS
Before you leave the clinic, your professional will explain the post-treatment instructions and give you a written copy to take home. In order to maintain your results, we will advise you on an ideal frequency for your maintenance treatments. Therefore, we will advise you to make your appointment in advance in order to reserve the time slot that suits you best.
