Frequently Asked Questions

What is Sculptra?

Sculptra is an injection procedure that introduces poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) into the skin to stimulate collagen production. It is used to improve volume and increase skin elasticity.

What is the difference between Sculptra and fillers?

Sculptra induces collagen production for gradual volume restoration, while fillers use ingredients like hyaluronic acid to provide immediate volume. There are differences in onset, duration, and treatment purpose.

What is the price range for Sculptra?

The price for Sculptra starts from ₩690,000 per vial. The total cost may vary depending on the number of vials needed.

(Non-covered services / VAT not included)

What are the effects of Sculptra?

Sculptra promotes collagen production in the skin, which can improve elasticity, restore volume, and reduce wrinkles. Effects appear gradually after the procedure, with final changes typically observed around 3 months.

Are the effects visible immediately after the procedure?

Sculptra induces collagen production, so gradual improvement is characteristic rather than immediate change. Noticeable results usually begin after about 1 month.

How is the required number of vials determined?

How long is the recovery period?

Generally, you can resume daily activities within 1 week after the procedure. Temporary swelling or redness may occur but usually subsides quickly.

What should I be careful about after the procedure?

Massage the treated area, avoid excessive stimulation, alcohol, and sauna. It is important to follow the post-care instructions provided by the medical staff.

How long do the effects last?

The effects of Sculptra can last for over 1 year. Duration may vary depending on individual skin condition and lifestyle.

Can Sculptra be combined with other procedures?

After evaluating your skin condition during consultation, it can be determined whether combination with other procedures is possible. The order is adjusted considering safety and effectiveness.

How accessible is Abijou Hongdae?

Located in the Hongdae area, it offers convenient access via public transportation, and appointments can be easily scheduled for consultation and procedures.

Is there anything to prepare before the procedure?

No special preparation is required, but it is important to inform the medical staff in advance about your health condition and any medications you are taking.

Is Sculptra suitable for all skin types?

The procedure is suitable for most skin types, but if you have a unique constitution or skin condition, it is important to have a thorough consultation with the medical staff.

Are there any side effects after the procedure?

Temporary swelling, redness, or bruising may occur but usually resolve within a few days. In rare cases, nodules may develop, so you should consult the medical staff immediately if you experience any unusual symptoms.

What is the recommended interval between procedures?

Additional sessions are generally recommended at intervals of 4 to 6 weeks. The interval may be adjusted based on individual skin response and treatment goals.

What is the difference between Sculptra and Juvelook Volume?

Sculptra contains PLLA, which stimulates collagen regeneration, while Juvelook Volume contains hyaluronic acid and focuses on immediate volume enhancement. There are differences in the onset and duration of effects.
