Nunnally Dermatology is a trusted destination for advanced aesthetic treatments in Baton Rouge, LA, and for good reason. We are excited to shed light on one of our innovative procedures called Sculptra and how it works to restore youthful volume and improve the appearance of facial contours. As a leading provider of dermatological services, we are committed to helping you achieve natural and long-lasting results from this groundbreaking treatment.
Understanding Sculptra: A Collagen-Stimulating Treatment
This treatment is a cutting-edge dermal filler designed to stimulate collagen production in the skin. Unlike traditional fillers that provide immediate volume, this treatment works gradually to restore facial fullness and enhance facial contours over time. By harnessing the power of your body’s natural regenerative process, this cosmetic treatment offers long-lasting results that look and feel natural.
The Science Behind This Treatment
This treatment is composed of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biocompatible substance that has been used safely in medical applications for many years. When injected into the skin, PLLA microspheres act as a scaffold, stimulating the production of collagen, the protein responsible for providing structure and support to the skin. As collagen gradually forms, it helps to restore volume and improve skin elasticity, resulting in a more youthful appearance.
The Treatment Process
Initial Consultation
At Nunnally Dermatology, your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation with one of our skilled practitioners under the caring and professional guidance of our lead specialist, Dr. Donna Nunnally. During this session, we will assess your unique concerns, examine your facial structure, and discuss your desired outcomes. Understanding your expectations allows us to tailor the treatment to your specific needs.
Personalized Treatment Plan
Based on the information gathered during your consultation, our experienced team will develop a personalized treatment plan. This plan will outline the number of sessions needed, the areas to be treated, and the amount of treatment solution required to achieve optimal results. We will provide you with a clear understanding of the treatment process and answer any questions you may have.
Administration of Treatment
This treatment involves a series of injections strategically placed in the areas of concern. Our skilled practitioners have a deep understanding of facial anatomy and employ precise techniques to ensure accurate product placement. We prioritize your comfort throughout the process and are committed to ensuring that you have a smooth and comfortable procedure from start to finish.
Results
This treatment works beneath the skin’s surface to stimulate collagen production. Over several weeks and months, you will notice a progressive improvement in the treated areas as the newly formed collagen enhances facial volume and contours. The gradual nature of the results ensures a natural and subtle transformation, allowing you to maintain your unique facial expressions without a stark overnight change.
Ideal Candidates
Those With Sunken or Flat Cheeks
Ideal candidates for this treatment often have sunken or flat cheeks due to age-related volume loss or other factors. This cosmetic treatment can restore volume and contour to the cheeks, creating a more youthful and vibrant appearance.
Anyone With Deep Facial Wrinkles and Folds
Candidates with deep facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds (smile lines) or marionette lines, can benefit from this treatment. This treatment option helps to fill in these lines and folds, softening their appearance and rejuvenating the face.

Individuals with thin or hollow temples may be ideal candidates for this treatment. This procedure can restore volume to the temples, addressing the sunken or hollowed-out appearance and improving overall facial harmony.
Anyway With Jawline Definition Issues

Most patients can resume their daily activities immediately following the session, making this treatment a convenient option for those with busy lifestyles.
Collagen Stimulation for Overall Skin Improvement
Beyond its volumizing effects, this treatment also offers the added benefit of overall skin improvement.
