Sculptra
Sculptra contains poly-L-lactic acid and is commonly used in a planned series. The visible change develops gradually as collagen support builds rather than appearing as a finished result on treatment day.
Radiesse
Radiesse contains calcium hydroxylapatite. Depending on how it is prepared and where it is placed, it can provide structural support and also stimulate collagen.
Planning across the face
Choosing a biostimulator requires assessment of anatomy, skin quality, volume pattern, treatment area, timing, and risk. The most effective plan may use one product, a staged combination, or a different treatment entirely.
