Sculptra®

Thinking about a non-surgical method for facial rejuvenation? Sculptra could be just what you need. This cutting-edge, FDA-approved injectable enhances your appearance subtly and naturally by stimulating collagen production, addressing volume loss, and delivering enduring results. Whether you want to restore facial contours, reduce wrinkles, or revitalize your look, Sculptra offers a versatile and effective solution. Explore how Sculptra can transform your appearance and achieve a refreshed, youthful look without surgery.

Treatment pricing varies, with services starting at $750.

How does Sculptra® work?

Sculptra is composed of a biocompatible material and utilizes poly-L-lactic acid to naturally boost collagen production in the skin. Unlike conventional fillers that offer instant volume, Sculptra provides gradual, long-term enhancement. During the procedure, Sculptra is precisely injected into specific areas, encouraging collagen growth over time. This leads to a subtle yet noticeable improvement in facial contours, skin elasticity, and overall texture. As collagen levels rise, lost volume is gradually restored, helping to reduce wrinkles and fine lines. Sculptra’s distinctive approach notbonly produces natural-looking results but also promotes a refreshed appearance that develops smoothly over several months.

Sculptra Post-Treatment Instructions

Immediately after a Sculptra injection session, redness, swelling, and/or bruising may appear in the treatment area. To reduce the risk of edema and/or bruising after injection, an ice pack wrapped in cloth (avoid any direct contact of the ice with the skin) is applied to the treated areas.

  • To help Sculptra distribute evenly in the contour deficiency, it is important at the end of the treatment session to manually massage in a circular fashion the treatment area for a minimum of 2 minutes. A facial moisturizer should be used to perform the massage. It is recommended that the patient should massage the treated areas for five minutes, five times per day for five days after the injection session to promote a natural-looking correction.

 

  • In addition, massaging the treatment area to ensure proper distribution of the product may also minimize the appearance of nodules. Nodules usually resolve spontaneously. However, as reported in published literature, some nodules may require medical treatment such as subcision (break-up of nodules with sterile saline solution), and delayed occurrence of subcutaneous nodules at the injection site (usually will manifest within 3 to 4 months after the treatment) may require treatment such as intralesional injections of corticosteroids, subcision and/or excision.

 

  • Within the first 24 hours, an ice pack wrapped in cloth (avoiding any direct contact of the ice with the skin) should be applied to the treatment area to reduce swelling and bruising. Sculptra may cause redness, swelling, or bruising when first injected into the skin, typically resolving in hours to one week. Hematoma may also occur, typically resolving in hours to about two weeks. Worsening or prolonged symptoms or signs should be reported to the health care provider. The original skin depression may initially reappear, but the depression should gradually improve within several weeks as the treatment effect of Sculptra occurs. The health care provider will assess the need for additional Sculptra injection sessions after at least four weeks.

 

  • It is recommended to massage in a circular fashion the treated areas for 5 minutes, 5 times per day for 5 days following any injection session, according to the healthcare professional’s advice.

 

  • Treatment with Sculptra can result in small papules in the treated area. These subcutaneous papules are typically not visible and asymptomatic and may be noticed only upon pressing on the treatment area. However, visible nodules, sometimes with redness or color change to the skin, have been reported. Patients should report these events and any other side effects to their health care provider.

 

  • Aesthetic make-up may be applied a few hours post-treatment if no complications are present.

 

  • Exposure of the treated area to sun and UV lamp exposure and extreme temperatures are to be avoided until any initial swelling and redness has resolved. Patients should be informed about appropriate sunscreen protection according to the healthcare professional s advice.

Hormone Replacement Therapy

What Is Hormone Pellet Therapy?

Pellet implants offer a distinctive method for delivering hormones to address imbalances in the body. During a straightforward and quick office procedure, your doctor inserts a specified number of hormone pellets under the skin near the hip. These pellets release controlled amounts of hormones into your bloodstream over several months.

Belmar Compound manufactures hormone pellet implants in the following formulations:

  • Estradiol (E2)
  • Testosterone
  • Testosterone with Cholesterol
  • Progesterone
  • Anastrozole

We utilize terminal sterilization techniques to guarantee the sterility of our pellets.

Benefits of Hormone Pellet Therapy

Bioidentical hormones are used to treat individuals with low hormone levels, as they have the same molecular structure as natural human hormones and function in the same way. Administering these hormones in pellet form offers several advantages:

  • Convenience — You won’t need to remember daily medication, as hormone pellets may require insertion only 3-4 times a year.
  • Minimal Side Effects — Pellet therapy delivers hormones directly into the bloodstream, reducing the side effects often associated with oral medications.
  • Consistency — Pellets provide a steady, consistent level of hormones in the bloodstream.

Conditions Treated

Hormone pellet therapy can effectively address a range of conditions that bioidentical
hormone replacement therapy targets, including:

  • Menopause
  • Low Testosterone
  • Decreased Bone Density
  • Sexual Dysfunction
  • Muscle and Strength Loss
  • Mood Disorders

Who May Benefit from Pellet Hormone Therapy?

Pellet hormone therapy is often beneficial for individuals experiencing symptoms of hormone imbalance due to aging or other factors. As hormone levels decrease, both men and women may feel less like their former selves. They might notice reduced strength and energy, difficulties or discomfort with sex, weight changes, and increased sensitivity to temperature extremes. Additionally, declines in hormone levels can impact various aspects of well-being, including changes in hair and skin, memory, and overall vitality.

Who Should Avoid Pellet Hormone Therapy?

Hormone replacement therapy carries potential risks and side effects that can vary depending on an individual’s medical history and lifestyle. It’s essential to discuss the possible benefits and drawbacks with your doctor to determine what’s best for you. The effects of pellet delivery may differ from those of oral or cream-based treatments. Inform your doctor if you:

  • Suspect you might be pregnant
  • Are experiencing vaginal bleeding
  • Have or have had certain types of cancer, such as breast, uterine, or endometrial cancer
  • Have a history of stroke or heart attack
  • Have had blood clots
  • Develop a local reaction to the implant, such as itching or redness
  • Notice the pellets becoming dislodged or coming out of the skin

If you have any of these risk factors, your doctor may recommend an alternative treatment approach.

Foundation of Anti Aging Treatment

Medical Grade Skincare

Establishing a skincare routine is crucial for any anti-aging plan. This involves daily use of sunscreen, moisturizers, and cleansers, as well as incorporating products with active ingredients like retinoids, growth factors, and antioxidants. Medical grade products, which are researched and clinically validated, contain higher concentrations of active ingredients, allowing for faster and more effective results with less product use.

Neurotoxin Treatments

Neurotoxins, such as Botox, temporarily minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by relaxing the facial muscles. They are particularly effective for dynamic wrinkles caused by repetitive facial expressions. Results typically last several months and require regular touch-ups to maintain their effect.

Radiofrequency Microneedling

RF Microneedling uses innovative radiofrequency technology to target the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and enhancing your complexion’s radiance.

Biostimulators for Collagen Production

Biostimulators, including platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and Sculptra®, encourage the body’s natural collagen production to improve skin texture and elasticity. PRP uses the patient’s own blood components for skin rejuvenation, while Sculptra is a synthetic injectable that gradually restores volume through collagen stimulation. These treatments offer longer-lasting, natural-looking results with ongoing improvements over time.

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)

BHRT is a valuable component of anti-aging treatments, particularly for those with hormonal imbalances related to aging. Bioidentical hormones, which are chemically identical to those produced naturally by the body, can help address symptoms like fatigue, mood swings, low libido, and reduced skin elasticity. It is important to have a comprehensive medical evaluation and work with a healthcare professional to tailor this therapy to your needs.
