As we age, the body produces less collagen – one of the most common yet vital proteins in the body. This starts between the mid-20s and early 30s, causing the skin to become dry, thin, less elastic, and show more wrinkles.
Luminisce Holistic Skin Innovation, one of the Philippines’ leading dermatology clinics, today introduces Sculptra, the first and original FDA-approved poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) collagen stimulator that addresses the root cause of aging by restoring the deep, underlying structure of the skin.
Anti-aging treatments in the form of collagen creams and collagen supplements have been criticized for addressing just the symptoms of anti-aging, instead of its cause. While creams fail to fully penetrate the dermis, supplements – which are broken down by the digestive system – provide inconclusive results on their efficacy.
Sculptra works by injecting PLLA microparticles into the skin which then stimulates collagen production. (PLLA is a biocompatible, biodegradable substance that is gradually absorbed by the body.) Restored collagen subsequently helps bring back facial volume and the look of fullness to wrinkles and folds. The result is a significant improvement in skin quality that lasts up to 2 years.
“We’re excited to introduce Sculptra at Luminisce as part of our portfolio of holistic treatments that address aging using the most effective and safest technology. This treatment will be available in all our clinics in Alabang, Bonifacio Global City, and Ortigas.” – Dr. Kaycee Reyes, Founder of Luminisce.
