Sculptra

Noticing a little less fullness in your cheeks or temples than you used to have? Sculptra by Galderma is a collagen-stimulating injectable that works gradually. Instead of adding instant volume, it can help your own collagen build back up over a few months, for a refreshed look that's all you. Quick visit, no real downtime.

  • About 30-45 minutes
  • Results build gradually over months
  • Usually a series of a few sessions
  • No real downtime

What Sculptra can help with

Here's where it shines

flatter hollow cheeks

Flatter, hollow cheeks

If your cheeks look a little flatter or more sunken than they used to, that's often volume loss. Sculptra can help rebuild support gradually, so the area can look softer and more lifted over time.

Treatments+

We place Sculptra to stimulate your own collagen in the cheek area. For most people the change is subtle and builds slowly across a few months, never an overnight switch.

Causes+

As collagen naturally slows with age, the deeper support under the skin can fade, which can leave the cheeks looking flatter.

Right after

Day 1 · no real downtime

The visit takes about 30-45 minutes. You might have a little redness, swelling, or tenderness at the points, which usually settles fast. We'll show you a simple massage to do at home, and you can head right back to your day.

Collagen gets going

Weeks 4-6 · the work begins

Any early puffiness is gone by now, and behind the scenes your collagen is starting to rebuild. You may not see much yet, and that's totally normal for Sculptra. The real change is on its way.

The refresh builds

Months 2-6 · gradual and natural

This is where it pays off. As collagen continues to build over the next several months, the treated areas can look fuller, firmer, and more refreshed for most people. We'll track your progress together at each session.

Real care from a team that gets it

Why clients choose us

Real care from a team that gets it

At Real Beauty Rx, you're looked after by an experienced team of injectors, nurses, and aestheticians who genuinely care about how you feel, not just how you look. Warm, honest, and zero judgment, every single visit.

Your treatment is performed by Jennifer Holman, NP, our owner and a Nurse Practitioner with over 14 years in medicine. She is a Key Opinion Leader for Galderma and Xcite Technologies, Chair of APANS, a lead injector-trainer for THMA, and known for her ultrasound-guided, full-face approach. You may also be cared for by our aesthetic nurse injector Lia Harding, RN. We keep it gentle, explain as we go, and never rush you through your series.

We assess where you've actually lost volume and how your skin is doing before anything's planned, so your treatment is built around you. All treatments follow Ontario's medical oversight rules.

Our whole vibe is subtle, and Sculptra suits that perfectly because it builds slowly. We want you to look refreshed and rested, while still looking completely like you.

Real Beauty Rx reviews

What the Beauty Club says

A few words from our Innisfil and Barrie clients.

Natasha has completely mastered the art of combining a results-driven medical treatment without sacrificing the relaxation of a traditional facial treatment. Instead of just waiting around during masks or product activations, she uses that time to melt away every ounce of tension you are holding by adding scalp and shoulder massages. I left with glowing, deeply treated skin and my mind and body super relaxed.

Real Beauty Rx is absolutely fantastic. Nurse Jennifer is highly knowledgeable and skilled. She was able to explain everything in detail and answered all of my questions (and I had many). I am beyond happy with my results and will definitely be going back!

Good questions

Your Sculptra questions,
answered

Everything you might be wondering before your first visit. Still curious about something? Just ask us.

Honestly? It's pretty manageable. It's a few small pinches across the treated areas, and the visit takes about 30-45 minutes. If you're nervous, just tell us and we can use numbing or a cannula in some areas to keep you comfy.

Great question. Most dermal fillers add volume instantly. Sculptra is a collagen stimulator, so instead of filling the area directly, it encourages your own collagen to rebuild over a few months. That's why the results come on gradually and tend to look really natural for most people.

Sculptra is a slow build, which is part of the charm. Any early puffiness settles within a week or so, and the real refresh builds over the next two to six months as your collagen responds. Results vary from person to person, which is why we check in with you along the way.

For many people, Sculptra results can last a couple of years once the full series is complete. A lot of our clients come back for a touch-up down the road to keep the refresh going. We'll talk through timing that works for you at every visit.

Sculptra is usually done as a series, often a few sessions spaced a few weeks apart, because collagen needs time to build between visits. The exact number depends on your areas and your goals, which we assess at your consult. We'll always confirm your plan and full cost before we start.

Sculptra by Galderma is priced on our Jane menu, and your total depends on how many sessions and areas you need, which we map out at your consult. We bill transparently and Beauty Club members get member pricing. Book a consult and we'll give you a clear plan and pricing in writing.

Not really. You can head right back to your day. We just ask you to go easy on alcohol, saunas, and intense exercise for about 24 hours, and to do the simple at-home massage we show you so the product settles evenly.

After Sculptra, we ask you to gently massage the treated areas for the first few days. It helps the product spread evenly so your results look smooth and natural. We'll show you exactly how to do it before you leave, so it's easy.

That's kind of Sculptra's whole thing. Because it builds your own collagen slowly, the refresh comes on so gradually that it usually just looks like a well-rested version of you. We keep it subtle, and we'll be honest about what's realistic for you.

We use Sculptra by Galderma, a Health Canada-approved collagen stimulator made with poly-L-lactic acid. Our team reviews your health history and any allergies before anything is planned, and we'll go over the details at your visit.

Sculptra has been used for many years and is Health Canada-approved when it's placed by trained professionals. Our team assesses you first, plans your areas carefully, and works under the medical oversight Ontario requires. We'll go over the details and any questions at your consult.

Often, yes. Lots of our clients pair Sculptra with other treatments for a balanced result, like dermal filler for areas that want instant shape, or SylfirmX for skin quality. We'll map out what makes sense for you and the right order to do things, with no pressure to add anything you don't want.

Sculptra tends to suit people who want a gradual, natural refresh and have some volume loss or collagen thinning to address. It's not the right fit for everyone, so we assess you first and will tell you honestly if another treatment would serve you better.

Sculptra is great for areas that have lost support over time, like the cheeks, temples, jawline, and neck. We'll assess your face and talk through which areas make the most sense for you and what's realistic before planning anything.

We do! Our clinic is in Innisfil, right between Barrie and the rest of Simcoe County, so we see lots of clients from Barrie, Bradford, and beyond. Easy to get to, free parking, and a warm welcome every time.

You're so welcome here. Plenty of our Sculptra clients are first-timers. We take it slow, explain everything, answer every question, and only start when you feel ready. No judgment, ever.

Sculptra is a great option for many people, but not everyone. We would not treat you if you are allergic to Sculptra or its ingredients. It is also important to tell us if you tend to form thick, raised scars, called keloids, or have a history of that kind of scarring, since Sculptra may not be a good fit for you. And like with any injectable, we wait if you have an active infection or irritation right where we would treat. We will go over your history with you so we can recommend the treatment that suits you best.

In the first days after treatment it is normal to have some swelling, redness, bruising, or tenderness where we injected, and these usually settle on their own. The side effect that is a little more specific to Sculptra is small bumps or firm nodules that can form under the skin, sometimes a while after treatment. We take steps to lower this risk, including how we prepare the product and a simple at-home massage routine we will teach you. If you ever feel a lump you are unsure about, please come in and let us take a look. We are always glad to check.
