What Is Sculptra?
Lost volume occurs naturally during the aging process, especially in the mid-face, as the cheeks tend to become hollow and flat. Dr. Oben Blair Ojong offers Sculptra Aesthetic, a poly-L-lactic acid bio stimulator that allows for fuller and longer-lasting volume in the cheeks. In addition to restoring the contour of the mid-face, Sculptra can decrease the appearance of fine to deep wrinkles and lines, including the nasolabial folds (also called laugh or smile lines) that start at the sides of the nose down to the outer corners of the mouth. With its unique formula approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration), Sculptra promotes the natural production of collagen in your body, so even if you stop getting injections, your complexion can still be stronger and healthier than before. Schedule an appointment for a consultation at Rêve Dermatology and Aesthetics in The Woodlands, TX to hear about the benefits of this aesthetic treatment.
How Are Sculptra Injections Performed?
After your consultation to develop your custom plan for treatment, you will receive your Sculptra injections in one of our private procedure rooms. A local anesthetic or numbing cream can be applied before sterilizing and marking the areas to be injected. Once ready, the bio stimulator is injected into the deeper skin layers at the chosen sites. For best possible results, we suggest a series of four treatments, each done at Rêve Dermatology and Aesthetics, about three weeks apart.

Rêve Dermatology and Aesthetics Reviews
Everyone in the office is super friendly and helpful. Dr. Ojong is amazing. I came in for a skin biopsy and was in and out in 30 minutes. She explained everything she was doing to ease my anxiety with the process. Will definitely be coming back for any of my dermatology needs!
Great service, Doctor Ojong really listened to to our concerns and needs, she found the right plan to move forward with. Great results have followed!
Blown away by the staff and doctor. Dr. Ojong is very approachable, genuinely kind, unassuming and humble. She provided me options for my treatment and completed my procedure quickly and painlessly. My issue has resolved as she predicted. Her Medical Assistant was also very friendly, and awesome at her job. She’s a fully licensed Nurse (RN) which is way more qualified than most doctor’s staff. If your skin has medical needs, and you don’t give Dr. Ojong a try, you’ll be missing out.
Dr. O and her staff are amazing. She has already transformed my skin in the month I’ve been seeing her. So happy to have found Reve right here in The Woodlands!
Great service and professionalism of the staff. My new doctor for sure!

Is Collagen Builder Right for Me?
Sculptra is best for anyone who wants to add contour to their cheeks without surgery. Some candidates may have naturally thin cheeks, while others experience full cheeks that are deflated with age. Sculptra may also help to improve fine to severe facial lines and wrinkles, including nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and chin wrinkles. Since Sculptra's formula helps to prompt the body's natural production of collagen in the skin, most Sculptra patients will notice a visible improvement in the appearance and health of their complexion.
Collagen Builder FAQ
How does Sculptra work?
Using poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), Sculptra is a treatment that works within the dermis of the skin to help stimulate collagen production. As more collagen is formed, Sculptra can help rejuvenate the skin's strength and volume over time. The increased collagen can effectively plump folds and wrinkles.
Are Sculptra injections safe?
Along with approval from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Sculptra has had a long history of safety worldwide since the late 1990s. Side effects are rare and usually mild, including minor pain, swelling, redness, and bruising. Sometimes, bumps may become noticeable when pressure is applied to the treated area. Contact us if you experience any concerns about side effects that are abnormal or last too long.
What is the best age to receive Sculptra?
Sculptra is beneficial for individuals who want to reduce the appearance of facial lines and wrinkles. It is often used to fill chin wrinkles, lines around the lips, and the deeper lines between the mouth and nose (nasolabial folds). The most common age to receive Sculptra injections is around the late 30s to early 50s. However, Sculptra can be safely used on most men and women who are over the age of 18.
