“Good aftercare protects your results, and your safety.”

After any treatment, the care you take in the next few hours and days matters. Following these instructions helps your skin heal well, lowers the chance of side effects, and protects the result you came in for.

Sculptra Post-Care

The massage step below matters. It helps your result settle smoothly and evenly. If anything concerns you, call us.

After Your Treatment

  • You may exercise.
  • Massage the treated area for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days. Use a facial moisturizing cream as a base for your massage.
  • No makeup on the area for 8 hours after treatment.
  • Initial results take about a month to appear. Treatment is usually repeated monthly until your goal is reached. Maintenance treatments once goal is reached are usually 1-3x per year.
  • Call us with any concerns.

Concealing Bruising

  • You may use an ice-water washcloth as needed, but no direct ice.
  • To conceal bruising: on purple areas, use a yellow-based color corrector; on yellow, green, or blue areas, use a pink-based color corrector.
