Microsculpt: A topical twist on Sculptra®, a supercharged form of microneedling to transform skin
Microneedling presents a conservative way to transform the appearance of visible pores, stretch marks, dark spots, fine lines, wrinkles, and other cosmetic concerns. This therapy encourages a process of tissue healing to make over damaged tissues. Likewise, Sculptra® is a minimally invasive dermal filler designed to soften wrinkles and restore youthful smoothness and contours by promoting the production of skin-firming and plumping collagen.
At The Nest Day Spa & Aesthetic Center, we can combine the powers of microneedling and Sculptra® to elevate the radiance, smoothness, attractive volume and definition, and overall skin quality.
The beauty and ease of MicroSculpt
When Sculptra® is added to the microneedling process, this innovative treatment is called “MicroSculpt.” Microneedling on its own involves using a special handheld device equipped with numerous very thin needles to create microscopic channels in the skin. These controlled injuries induce the production of natural collagen. As the body heals itself, the injured areas or channels are filled with collagen fibers responsible for the firmness and plumpness of the skin. Additionally, microneedling helps to replenish elastin, another vital structural component of the skin that contributes to its smoothness. This versatile treatment is appropriate for everything from dark spots and visible pores to scars, stretch marks, lines, and wrinkles.
Sculptra® is a member of a category of injectable treatments characterized as “dermal” or “soft tissue” fillers. These products are formulated with ingredients that are designed to add volume to depressions in the face. Treatable concerns include depressed areas like scars, lines, and folds and areas of volume loss, such as the hollows of the apples of the cheeks. Sculptra® is also among that rare breed of fillers known as “collagen stimulators.” Like microneedling, Sculptra® promotes collagen production by introducing PLLA to depressions or shrunken or collapsed mid- and lower-face areas. This makes Sculptra® an exceptionally long-lasting filler whose results only improve with time.
With MicroSculpt, our professionals introduce Sculptra® to the skin “topically” via microneedling. The particles of Sculptra® then enter and penetrate the micro-channels created by the microneedling device. Think of this approach as a “supercharged” form of microneedling. MicroSculpt treatment supports brighter, tighter, smoother skin and improves texture and overall skin quality. Due to both of these approaches triggering collagen, you will see continued improvements to your skin over time.
