Which injectables can be used for skin tightening?
What is the procedure for skin tightening?
Before the process begins, the skin may be numbed with a topical anesthetic agent to make the injection process more comfortable for the client. Skin tightening will involve Sculptra® being injected in the concerned areas, which may be the neck, arms, or face, among others. Although dependent on the number of areas being treated, it should not take more than 30 to 40 minutes.
What to expect after skin tightening?
After the skin tightening procedure has been completed, the patient can resume their daily activities, even including returning to work. However, there may be mild bruising, tenderness, or redness, seen after the procedure. These are normal and will subside naturally after a few days.
The results will not be seen immediately after treatment as Sculptra® needs a few weeks to achieve its effect. However, after this period, patients will continue to notice an improvement in their skin tightness for up to two years after the procedure. You can reference this gallery of patients who have used Sculptra®.
