Sculptra® in Kelowna

Sculptra® is a biostimulatory injectable treatment made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible material that naturally stimulates collagen production. Unlike traditional fillers that provide immediate volume, Sculptra® works gradually by encouraging your body to rebuild lost collagen over time. 

This process strengthens the skin’s inner structure and restores youthful fullness from within. As collagen regenerates, the skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more resilient. The results develop progressively, offering a natural enhancement rather than a sudden change. At Kelowna Hills, our physician-led injectors carefully tailor each treatment to your unique anatomy, ensuring your results look balanced, refreshed, and beautifully natural.

Sculptra® is highly versatile and can be used to address volume loss in the cheeks, temples, jawline, chin, and midface. It’s also effective for softening deep folds such as nasolabial lines and marionette lines. By rebuilding collagen in these areas, it restores youthful contour and improves overall skin tone and texture.

Sculptra® can also be used for body contouring applications, such as improving skin laxity on the neck, décolletage, or buttocks. Its gradual and natural-appearing results make it ideal for clients who prefer subtle rejuvenation over time. At Kelowna Hills, we personalize every treatment plan to target your specific concerns and aesthetic goals for long-lasting improvement.

Sculptra® results appear gradually, typically becoming visible around six to eight weeks after your first treatment. Collagen continues to build in the months that follow, creating a firmer and smoother skin texture. Most clients require a series of two to three sessions spaced four to six weeks apart for optimal results.

Once achieved, these results can last up to two years or longer, depending on your age, metabolism, and lifestyle. Because Sculptra® restores collagen, improvements continue naturally even after the treatment series ends. At Kelowna Hills, we recommend annual maintenance sessions to preserve your refreshed, youthful appearance long-term.

Absolutely. Sculptra® is often combined with other rejuvenating treatments such as Botox®, Dermal Fillers, or PRP to enhance results. While Sculptra® rebuilds structural support and collagen deep in the skin, other modalities can target fine lines, texture, or dynamic wrinkles at the surface. Combining these treatments allows for a more comprehensive facial rejuvenation that addresses multiple layers of aging simultaneously.

At Kelowna Hills, we take a holistic approach to aesthetics, customizing your plan to achieve balanced and natural-looking outcomes. Our team will recommend a treatment sequence that optimizes results while keeping your skin healthy and radiant long-term.

Yes, Sculptra® is an excellent treatment option for men looking to restore volume, improve skin firmness, and maintain a youthful yet masculine appearance. Unlike traditional fillers, it offers subtle, gradual improvements that enhance facial structure without adding excessive fullness. Common treatment areas for men include the cheeks, jawline, and temples, helping to restore contour and definition.

Because the results develop naturally, Sculptra® is ideal for clients seeking discreet rejuvenation that doesn’t appear obvious. At Kelowna Hills, our providers understand the nuances of male facial anatomy and design treatments that maintain strong, balanced, and authentic features. Over time, Sculptra® helps men look refreshed, confident, and revitalized, without changing who they are.

While both Sculptra® and traditional dermal fillers enhance facial volume, they work in completely different ways. Dermal fillers use hyaluronic acid to add immediate volume, while Sculptra® stimulates collagen production to restore structure and firmness over several months. The results from Sculptra® develop gradually and can last up to two years or longer, depending on your skin’s response and maintenance.

This makes it an ideal choice for clients seeking subtle, natural rejuvenation without looking “overfilled.” Sculptra® works beautifully in combination with fillers and neuromodulators for a comprehensive facial restoration plan. At Kelowna Hills, we guide each client through selecting the best option (or combination) to achieve natural, long-lasting harmony.
