Guest post by The Cosmetic Lounge founder and registered nurse, Jelena Vucica, on the growing popularity of Sculptra Injections.
From Kim Kardashian-West and Kylie Jenner, to J-Lo, Nicky Minaj, Blac Chyna and our very own Kylie Minogue… our obsession with plump booties not only continues but it’s seemingly growing!
At The Cosmetic Lounge, we’ve noticed a serious spike in our clients’ interest in non-surgical butt-lifts. Perhaps Covid-19 is partly responsible for this increased interest as people are re-focussing on their physical appearance now restrictions have eased and we’re generally wanting to feel better about ourselves. Whatever the reasons, Sculptra’s popularity is certainly on the rise.
So what is Sculptra? Different to the more-commonly known Brazilian Butt-Lift, Sculptra is a cosmetic procedure that’s designed to enhance the curve and shape of a buttocks, without surgery or a high risk of complications. Sculptra uses a bio-stimulator to stimulate collagen production in the deeper layers of skin. It can even help with cellulite improvement.
When administered correctly and expectations are realistic, Sculptra can modestly yet noticeably boost the natural shape of the buttocks. At The Cosmetic Lounge, we’re all about enhancing one’s natural beauty and for this reason, we’ve been spotlighting the potential benefits of a Sculptra treatment to our clients.
Like all cosmetic treatments though, there are some important factors to consider before booking a Sculptra treatment. These include…
Safety / side effects: This procedure doesn’t carry a high risk of scarring, but there is a small risk of infection. However, Sculptra butt lift is safer than its surgical alternatives. In addition to scarring, side effects can include skin discolouration, nodules, lumps and granulomas which can occur several months (or even more than a year) after injection.
Treatment time: A Sculptra butt lift can be done as quickly as other injectables within a licensed clinic. You can be in-and-out with a better butt within an hour! However, choosing a quality and trained provider to give you a Sculptra treatment is the most important part of this process and it is key to avoiding the side effects. At The Cosmetic Lounge, we’re lucky enough to have a clinical trainer who actually teaches many doctors and nurses of Sculptra treatments.
Cost: Costs vary according to how much volume you want to add during your Sculptra treatment. Generally though, the cost of a Sculptra treatment starts at about AUD $700.
Efficacy: Results of this procedure depend on many factors, including the level of experience your provider has. We’re seeing more and more happy clients as a result of their Sculptra treatment at The Cosmetic Lounge. It’s generally a low-risk way to get a significantly rounder and more pert buttocks.
It’s natural for weight loss, ageing, and pregnancy to decrease a butt’s natural pert and plumpness so Sculptra can be an easy, efficient and cost-effective solution to feel better – especially for non-smokers, those who are generally physically healthy and of course, for those who have realistic goals for the results of this procedure.
