Sculptra®in North Vancouver
Sculptra® is an injectable poly-L-lactic acid treatment designed to support gradual collagen production and help improve the appearance of age-related facial volume changes. At Nuevo Skin Lab, treatment is planned according to your facial anatomy, existing volume, skin characteristics, and individual goals. Our approach focuses on balanced, natural-looking refinement that develops gradually over time.
How Sculptra® Works
Treatment recommendations are based on an individualised assessment. Sculptra® may not be appropriate for every patient or every area of concern.

Planning Your Sculptra® Treatment
Why Choose Nuevo Skin Lab for Sculptra®?
Your treatment plan is tailored to the facial changes you would like to address, your anatomy, and the level of support or volume restoration being considered.
We assess facial proportions, treatment areas, skin characteristics, relevant medical history, and suitability before recommending an approach.
Treatment is planned with the understanding that Sculptra® works progressively rather than creating an immediate final result.
We discuss what to expect, potential risks, aftercare, and the anticipated treatment schedule before you proceed.
Follow-up allows us to assess your response and determine whether additional treatment may be appropriate.
Sculptra® FAQs
Sculptra® is made with poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible, biodegradable synthetic material. It is designed to work gradually, supporting changes in the treated area as new collagen develops over time.
