Welcome to Sculptra
Sagging skin and muscles are commonly associated with an aging face or other parts of the body, but fat loss is also to blame. Youthful and vibrant skin is often dependent on the production of collagen, which diminishes with age. Sculptra can help correct these signs of aging by awakening collagen production to address wrinkles, hollow areas, or sagging skin. The results can last an impressive two years or more.
At True Beauty Med Spa, we offer the highest-quality patient care and the most natural-looking aesthetic results in the Short Hills, NJ, area. Dr. Beverly Friedlander and the injectable team are skilled, trained, and knowledgeable in ideal Sculptra techniques and methods and would be excited to give you a stunning outcome.
Sculptra is an injectable filler made with poly-L-lactic (PLLA) acid. Instead of “filling” the treatment area with the formula, Sculptra® Aesthetic (commonly referred to as Sculptra) is a biostimulator that works by stimulating collagen production under the skin for a gradual and, thus, long-lasting result.
This synthetic PLLA is extremely safe and biocompatible. It provides powerful wrinkle-reduction to restore youthfulness, vitality, and strength to your skin. It can also add shapeliness and volume where desired on the face, neck, or body, including the buttocks. As Sculptra stimulates collagen production over time, collagen loss is restored for a smooth, refined, natural-looking appearance.
Sculptra can address concerns in multiple areas by reducing wrinkles, filling in hollow areas, and even smoothing crepey skin. Whether you want to reverse the signs of aging or sculpt and enhance certain areas, this treatment could be the answer. Sculptra can improve multiple areas:
This injectable is a great option for both men and women of all skin types who are seeking a way to reduce the signs of aging due to collagen loss. In general, our Short Hills, NJ Sculptra patients are in good health and have realistic expectations regarding the outcome of the procedure. If you are looking to address any of the concerns below, you are likely a great candidate:

Experience the difference of a plastic surgery professional who cares about making a genuine difference in the lives of her patients.
At a consultation with Dr. Beverly Friedlander, you can expect an in-depth conversation about your aesthetic concerns and goals and a detailed plan on how those goals can be achieved at True Beauty MedSpa with Sculptra. You will also receive detailed information on how to prepare for your Sculptra appointment, including the need to avoid taking aspirin, NSAIDs, and any other blood-thinning medications, as these can increase possible bruising and other side effects.
Sculptra injections are generally quick and are performed in our well-appointed and safe facility. First, the treatment area will be cleansed. You may receive a topical numbing agent if needed, but the Sculptra solution is also mixed with lidocaine for comfort. Then, the injections will be skillfully administered by Dr. Friedlander for optimal results. The total appointment time is usually about 30 to 45 minutes.
Immediately after the procedure, you may feel slight tenderness at the injection sites, but you are free to resume all regular activities. We usually recommended a series of two to three treatments given around four to six weeks apart. We find that the subsequent treatments heighten the quality and longevity of the initial results.
We treat each of our patients with the idea that healthy skin equals beautiful skin. We are careful to only offer the highest quality and safest treatments and methods at True Beauty Med Spa. With 30 years of experience in New Jersey cosmetic treatments, Dr. Beverly Friedlander and her staff are committed to stellar patient care and outstanding aesthetic results.

Some patients experience a sensation of pressure or pinching, but most report that it is very tolerable. Sculptra serum is pre-mixed with lidocaine to ensure as much comfort as possible.
Risks associated with Sculptra are minimal and very rarely serious. Mild side effects could include bruising, swelling, or redness.
While not permanent, part of the great appeal of Sculptra is that it can last up to two years due to its collagen production qualities.
As is the case with almost every cosmetic procedure available, Sculptra is not recommended while pregnant or breastfeeding.
No, there is no required downtime with Sculptra, and you will be able to return to regular activities right away.
