While classified as dermal filler, Sculptra and Radiesse contain unique ingredients that address various concerns.
- Sculptra: FDA-approved Sculptra contains a collagen stimulator called poly-L-lactic acid, which reduces deep wrinkles when injected into the skin.
- Radiesse: Composed of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA), Radiesse stimulates collagen production. It can reduce wrinkles and folds after a single treatment.
Dermal fillers typically provide instant results, while biostimulators require multiple treatments and provide gradual but longer-lasting results. Additionally, we can apply biostimulators to various body parts, whereas fillers typically focus on the face.
