Do you ever wish your skin could rebuild its natural firmness and glow—without fillers or surgery? As we age, collagen loss leads to sagging skin, hollow cheeks, and fine lines that deepen over time. Sculptra® is a unique biostimulator that restores youthful structure and smoothness from within.
At Prospera Internal Medicine & Aesthetics Medical Center in San Diego, Lea Pace, PA-C, combines her extensive medical experience and artistic approach to help patients achieve natural, gradual rejuvenation. With over more than 16 years of experience in medicine and aesthetics, Lea provides expert care tailored to your skin’s unique needs.
What Is Sculptra?
Sculptra is an FDA-approved biostimulator made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible substance that encourages your body to produce new collagen. Unlike traditional fillers that provide immediate volume, Sculptra works gradually to improve skin firmness and structure over several months—creating results that can last up to two years or longer.

During your consultation, Lea Pace, PA-C, will discuss your goals and evaluate whether Sculptra or another treatment best aligns with your needs.
The Sculptra Treatment Process
Your Sculptra session begins with a comprehensive facial assessment. Your provider will carefully mark injection points and apply a numbing agent to ensure your comfort. Then, using a fine needle or cannula, they will inject Sculptra into targeted areas beneath the skin.
Each session takes about 30–45 minutes. Most patients benefit from a series of two to three treatments spaced several weeks apart for optimal results.
After treatment, you may experience mild swelling or tenderness, which typically resolves within a few days. Lea will recommend gentle massage techniques to help distribute the product evenly.
Results and Maintenance
Sculptra results develop gradually as collagen production increases over the next few months. You’ll notice firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin that continues to improve over time.
Results can last up to two years or more, making Sculptra one of the longest-lasting non-surgical rejuvenation options available. Maintenance sessions, conducted every 18–24 months, help preserve your results and keep your skin looking naturally refreshed.
