Injectables In Boston, MA — Use Sculptra to Restore Lost Collagen in Your Skin

Injectable products are used to improve your skin’s appearance by adding fullness, creating angles, and eliminating signs of aging. There are many different kinds of cosmetic injectables, but one of the most common ones is Sculptra. If you would like to find out if you are a good candidate for Sculptra, contact Wellesley Cosmetic Surgery today.

What Are Sculptra Cosmetic Injectables?

Collagen is a substance that gives skin its elasticity and thickness. As you age, your skin will begin to lose collagen, thus making you appear older. Most injectable fillers are designed to temporarily fill in folds and wrinkles caused by the loss of collagen. But, Sculptra is different. Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable that slowly replaces collagen in the skin.

How does it work? Your plastic surgeon will inject Sculptra into targeted areas on your face. Sculptra will enter the deep dermis, where it will slowly begin to help your body produce collagen that has been lost due to aging and other natural causes. As the collagen forms, it will add volume to your face and smooth out folds and wrinkles, making you appear years younger. It’s important to note that it typically takes two to three injection appointments to see the desired results.

How Do Plastic Surgeons Know When to Do Injectables?

A Boston plastic surgeon may suggest that you try injectables if you have shallow or deep nasolabial folds, which are found in the area between the nose and the mouth. Injections can also be used on wrinkles that surround the mouth, which are known as marionette lines, and wrinkles on the chin. Sculptra is not approved to inject in lips or under eyes.

Injectables may be recommended for patients who are only interested in non-surgical treatments. If you don’t want to undergo a facelift, an injectable may help you achieve the look that you desire, however, the results will not last as long.

How Long Do Injectables Last?

Sculptra results will typically last for about two years. Don’t be disappointed if you don’t see results immediately following treatment. Remember, it’s important to receive two to three treatments in order to achieve the desired results. After you have received two to three treatments, the results should be noticeable.

    Testimonials

    Everyone is super nice here and makes you feel extremely comfortable. Dr. Shektman did my second breast augmentation and he did a wonderful job. I had scar tissue in one that he was able to remove and I went larger. Highly recommend them!

    After seeing 3 other surgeons I decided to go with Dr Shektman at Wellesley Cosmetic Surgery because of his warm & approachable manner. I was quite nervous about getting a mini face lift & neck lift since I never had cosmetic surgery. I am so glad I choose him. He understood my concerns of wanting a natural look & he followed through completely. Everyone who has seen me has stated that they can’t really tell anything was done except for the fact that my face and neck look really good. That is exactly what I wanted: to look natural & “refreshed”. I highly recommend him. You will get the results you’re looking for & he will make you feel very comfortable throughout the whole process. He’s a skilled surgeon & a very kind person. Also, he has a dedicated staff who are very knowledgeable & attentive to your concerns. You really can’t go wrong if you choose Dr Shektman for your surgeon.

    I have been a patient of Dr. Shektman's at Wellesley Cosmetic Surgery for a number of years now. He first did a tummy tuck on me about 5 or 6 years ago. It really changed the way I saw myself and gave a great boost to my self confidence. Then, about six months ago I had him do my face and neck lift. Again, the results were excellent and I feel like my younger self. He also has a wonderful team that has been with him many years. Thank you all.

    My experience with Dr Shektman is always positive as he is so kind and gentle. I felt well taken care of for all three of the surgical procedures Ive had done. This summer, being a 42 year old mom running after a toddler on the beach, I’ve never felt so beautiful and confident in my own skin. My body is now curvy and sculpted in the right places, something years of diet and exercise could never achieve. Thanks, Dr Shektman!

    I absolutely love everything about Dr. Shektman and his staff but I love my face even more! I could have never expected such an amazing result! I look 20 or more years younger but it is ME, not somebody else! My recovery was amazingly quick, I actually went to dinner with friends 48 hours after the surgery, the same day my bandages were removed. My very first compliment received from somebody “ in the know” was:” OMG, it’s YOU but so young...”. My husband who was so much against my facelift tells me every morning how beautiful I am. I cannot go past the mirror without smiling to myself! I am no longer horrified by the way l look, I love it! Thank you, Dr Shekhtman!

    I had a great experience with Dr. Shektman and his team for my breast augmentation. I was extremely nervous to even have a consultant but felt very much at ease by the end of it. The surgery team was wonderful and made me feel incredibly relaxed right before the operation. Recovery (for me) was easy and I was back to work within a few days. The results were amazing - I wish I had done this years ago.
