Collagen plays an important role in maintaining the skin’s firmness, fullness, and overall structure. Gradual volume loss in areas such as the cheeks and jawline can affect facial definition over time. Sculptra Vancouver offers a thoughtful, long-term approach to supporting a more youthful-looking appearance without surgery.

How does it work? Sculptra is an injectable biostimulator designed to stimulate the body’s natural production of collagen. While it can provide some initial volume, its effects develop gradually as collagen production increases, helping support the skin’s structure, firmness, volume, and facial symmetry. With time, the results can become more noticeable as the skin’s collagen framework is gradually rebuilt. For many patients, the effects can last more than two years.

Because Sculptra works gradually, it can be an option for those who prefer a subtler approach to facial rejuvenation. A consultation with a qualified professional can help determine whether the treatment is appropriate for your individual concerns and goals.
Why patients love this treatment

Here's why our Vancouver patients love microneedling:

●Stimulates your body to produce its own elastin and collagen for long-lasting renewal.
●Reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and old, resistant acne scars.
●Creates more even, supple, and tighter skin with increased tone and elasticity.
●Is safe for most skin types with a personalized medical approach.
●Requires no downtime, as redness and mild swelling subside rapidly.
●Results build over time with a series of monthly treatments for fresh, new skin.

What to expect along the way?

What is the downside to microneedling? There really isn't a downside! Our conventional approach addresses the face, neck, chest, and other areas of concern in approximately 45-minute to 1-hour sessions. You may experience some redness, swelling, and pinprick bleeding immediately following treatment, which all dissipate quickly. Mineral makeup can be applied a little over 24 hours later.

Your skin is producing new collagen, so your results will be slow to develop. You may see some before-and-after results after your first appointment, but it may take several months and numerous sessions for others to see all the results.
Time for choices that work for you

West Dermatology has various options for you based on your desired results. Automated traditional microneedling uses a precision device to induce controlled tiny injuries to stimulate collagen. Platelet-rich plasma microneedling, or the vampire facial, adds blood-derived growth factors for even more collagen stimulation and healing enhancement.

What sets these apart is our medical, customizable technique that puts the focus on you. With Dr. Sutton, and the skilled West Dermatology team, you get thorough skin evaluation, state-of-the-art techniques, and an emphasis on genuine, healthy renewal.
