Sculptra Injections at Hilinski Medspa:Achieve Long-Lasting Facial Rejuvenation
Sculptra® is a revolutionary injectable treatment offered at Hilinski Medspa that helps rejuvenate the face by stimulating your body’s natural collagen production. Unlike traditional dermal fillers like Restylane® or JUVÉDERM®, Sculptra® works as a bio-stimulant, encouraging collagen production deep within the skin to restore volume and create a youthful, refreshed appearance. With board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. John Hilinski leading the way, patients in San Diego can achieve gradual and long-lasting results that improve the overall structure and fullness of the face.

What is Sculptra®?
Sculptra® is an FDA-approved injectable made from poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible substance used in medical applications for decades. It is designed to restore facial volume by stimulating collagen growth in the skin. Rather than providing immediate volume like traditional fillers, Sculptra® works gradually over time, enhancing the skin’s structural integrity and natural plumpness as collagen production increases.

How Does Sculptra® Work?
Sculptra® is not an immediate filler. When injected, it stimulates the skin’s collagen production over time, gradually improving volume and softening wrinkles and folds. Patients often notice that while the initial plumping effect from the injection disappears after a few days, their skin begins to look fuller and more youthful as collagen is produced over the following weeks and months. Most patients require multiple treatments to achieve optimal results, with sessions spaced 4-8 weeks apart.
The Sculptra® Treatment Process
Consultation
During your consultation with Dr. Hilinski, he will evaluate your skin, discuss your aesthetic goals, and determine how many vials of Sculptra® you will need to achieve the best outcome. Each treatment is personalized based on your facial anatomy and desired results.
Injection Process
Sculptra® is injected into specific areas of the face using a fine needle. The product is mixed with sterile water and lidocaine to minimize discomfort during the treatment. The process typically takes about 30 minutes, and most patients can resume their regular activities immediately afterward.
Post-Treatment and Results
While the initial volume you see immediately after the injection will subside, collagen stimulation will begin shortly after the treatment. Over the next few weeks and months, you will notice subtle yet significant improvements in facial volume and skin texture. Results from Sculptra® can last up to two years, providing a long-term solution for facial rejuvenation.
