SCULPTRA is a sterile, injectable, biocompatible, biodegradable material that is made of poly-L-lactic acid (a synthetic polymer), sodium carboxymethylcellulose and non-pyrogenic mannitol. SCULPTRA is indicated for use in immune-competent subjects for the correction of shallow to deep nasolabial fold contour deficiencies and other facial wrinkles, and correction of fine lines and wrinkles in the cheek region. It is also indicated in people with HIV-associated lipoatrophy for restoration and/or correction of the signs of facial fat loss.
A sterile, bioabsorbable, inorganic chemically synthesized mineral (e.g., synthesized calcium hydroxyapatite) intended to be injected into the dermis/hypodermis of the skin, lip submucosa, and/or for supraperiosteal administration to add volume by serving as a space-occupying supplement to the intercellular matrix of connective tissue (dermal filler), typically to correct cutaneous contour deformities (e.g., wrinkles, folds, scars) associated with aging, injury, or degenerative lesions; it does not include a local anaesthetic agent. The material is typically preloaded in a disposable syringe.
