Sculptra at Bloom — Regenerative Facial Rejuvenation

Collagen is the scaffold that keeps skin firm, smooth, and lifted. As it thins with age, you see hollowing, laxity, and etched lines. Sculptra (poly-L-lactic acid, PLLA) is a regenerative treatment that stimulates your own skin to rebuild collagen—so results look like you, just better. Beautiful and subtle changes that add up to real, natural-looking improvement.

Why Sculptra?

• Stimulates your own collagen for gradual lift and firmness

• Softens lines and improves overall facial structure

• Results develop over weeks to months and can last up to 2+ years and beyond in some cases

• No “pillow-face”—balanced, believable refresh

At Bloom Aesthetics & Wellness in Frederick, Maryland, Sheila K. Rohe, MSN, CRNP, FNP-C, personalizes Sculptra plans to your features and goals, often as part of a full facial balancing approach.

What exactly is Sculptra?

Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable made of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). Tiny biostimulatory particles are placed in the skin to activate fibroblasts, which gradually lay down new collagen. The body safely metabolizes the PLLA over time; the collagen you build is yours to enjoy.

How is this “regenerative” medicine?

Instead of just filling space, Sculptra triggers your own repair pathways to rebuild the scaffold (collagen) that’s been thinning with age. That’s the regenerative piece—restore function and structure, don’t just mask it.

What areas does Sculptra treat?

Common facial areas include temples, cheeks, pre-auricular hollow, jawline support, chin, and nasolabial/marionette zones. It’s great for global framework and skin quality—not for lips or tear troughs. (We’ll discuss what’s on-label and what’s commonly used off-label.)

How many sessions will I need?

Most plans involve two to four sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Expect a maintenance session around 12 months.

When will I see results?

You’ll see a short-lived “post-procedure plump” from the mixing fluid that settles in a day or two. True results build gradually as collagen forms—typically noticeable by 6–12 weeks, continuing to improve for several months.

How long do results last?

Once collagen is rebuilt, improvements can last up to 2+ years, with individual variation based on age, metabolism, sun habits, and skincare.

What’s the downtime?

Most people return to normal activities the same day. Expect brief tenderness, swelling, or bruising. We’ll share easy aftercare (including gentle massage instructions) and quick recovery tips.

Is Sculptra the same as filler?

Different tools, different jobs. Hyaluronic acid fillers give instant volume and are ideal for sculpting specific features. Sculptra builds global support by stimulating collagen—slower onset, longer horizon. We often combine them for the most natural, balanced outcome.

Can Sculptra be dissolved?

No. Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, Sculptra cannot be dissolved. That’s why mapping, micro-placement, and the right candidate selection matter. When done well, it looks incredibly natural.

Who’s a good candidate?

Adults with diffuse volume loss, laxity, or etched lines who prefer a gradual, “no-one-can-tell” refresh. Not ideal if you’re pregnant/nursing, have active infection/inflammation, certain autoimmune conditions, or a history of abnormal scarring—Sheila will screen you.

What does treatment feel like?

We use topical or local anesthetic for comfort. Sessions are typically 45 minutes. You may leave with a “filled” look that softens within a day or two as the fluid absorbs.

Any ways to boost results?

Absolutely. Smart pairings include RF microneedling, PRF/PRP, and medical-grade skincare (vitamin A, antioxidants, SPF). Lifestyle—protein intake, strength training, and sun protection—helps protect your new collagen.
