What to Expect
At Deviva Skin Lab, we aim to make your Sculptra® experience comfortable and effective, with natural results that develop over time:
Numbing: A topical anesthetic may be applied to the treatment area to enhance comfort.
Procedure Time: The procedure typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the number of areas treated.
Minimal Discomfort: Most patients experience little to no discomfort during the procedure, as Sculptra® is delivered through precise and gentle injections.
Gradual Results: Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra® provides a gradual improvement in volume and skin quality as your collagen production is stimulated. Results become noticeable over weeks and can last for up to two years with proper care.
How to Prepare
To ensure optimal results and a seamless treatment experience, follow these key preparation steps:
Consultation: Schedule a consultation with our Cosmetic Injectors to discuss your goals, address concerns, and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your anatomy and aesthetic vision.
Avoid Blood Thinners: Discontinue the use of blood-thinning medications, such as aspirin or ibuprofen, at least one week before treatment to reduce the risk of bruising. Consult your doctor before stopping any prescribed medications.
Alcohol Avoidance: Refrain from consuming alcohol 24 hours prior to your appointment to minimize the risk of swelling and bruising.
Disclose Medical History: Inform your provider about any allergies or medical conditions during your consultation to ensure a safe treatment experience.
Hydrate Well: Drink plenty of water leading up to your appointment to enhance skin health and ensure the best results.
Aftercare
Proper aftercare is essential for optimal results and a smooth recovery:
Massage the Treated Area: Your provider will recommend massaging the treated area for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days post-treatment. This helps evenly distribute the product.
Avoid Strain: Minimize strenuous activities and excessive heat exposure for 24-48 hours post-treatment.
Stay Hydrated: Continue drinking plenty of water to support collagen production and maintain skin health.
Sun Protection: Protect the treated area from direct sunlight and use sunscreen daily.

Common Questions
What if I experience swelling or bruising?
Mild swelling or bruising is a common side effect after Sculptra® injections and typically resolves within a few days. Applying ice packs to the treated area can help reduce swelling, and following our post-care instructions will ensure a smooth recovery. Avoiding strenuous activity, alcohol, and excessive sun exposure immediately after treatment can also help minimize these effects. If you have any concerns, our team is always available to provide guidance and support during your healing process.
Can Sculptra® be combined with other treatments?
Absolutely! Sculptra® pairs well with treatments such as Botox®, Dermal Fillers, and Laser Therapy to create a comprehensive facial rejuvenation plan. Combining treatments can address multiple concerns, such as volume loss, fine lines, and skin texture, for a more youthful and refreshed appearance. Our specialists will guide you in customizing a combination approach that aligns with your aesthetic goals and provides balanced, natural-looking results.
How many treatments are required?
The number of Sculptra® treatments needed varies depending on individual goals and the extent of volume loss. Most clients achieve optimal results with 2 to 3 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, allowing collagen production to build gradually. During your consultation, our Cosmetic Injectors will assess your skin and recommend a treatment plan tailored to your needs. Each session builds upon the last, ensuring natural and long-lasting improvements.
Is Sculptra® safe?
Yes, Sculptra® is considered safe and effective when administered by experienced professionals. It has been Health Canada-approved, undergoing rigorous testing to ensure its safety for cosmetic use. At Deviva Skin Lab, our team of skilled injectors follows strict protocols and uses only premium products to deliver safe and satisfying results. Side effects are typically mild and temporary, such as swelling or tenderness at the injection site.
How long do the results last?
The results of Sculptra® can last up to two years or longer with proper maintenance, making it one of the most long-lasting solutions for facial rejuvenation. As it stimulates collagen production, improvements continue to develop gradually over several months. Regular touch-ups can help maintain results and keep skin looking firm, plump, and youthful. Our Cosmetic Injectors will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan to maximize longevity and achieve your desired look.
What is Sculptra®?
Sculptra® is a Health Canada-approved injectable biostimulator that gradually restores lost volume by stimulating your skin’s natural collagen production. Unlike traditional fillers, it works beneath the skin’s surface to rebuild structure and improve elasticity over time. It’s an excellent option for addressing concerns such as volume loss, deep wrinkles, and overall facial contouring in a subtle and natural way. Sculptra® provides progressive results that enhance your youthful appearance without looking overdone.
