Sculptra® in Zurich
Your specialists for Sculptra® treatment
As we age, our bodies produce less collagen. The skin loses its elasticity and firmness, causing wrinkles to form and the skin to lose volume and tone. Sculptra® treatment offers an innovative solution to stimulate natural collagen production and restore the skin’s freshness and firmness.
Unlike traditional fillers such as hyaluronic acid, the biostimulator does not work immediately, but stimulates collagen formation over the long term. The treatment thus ensures a smoother and younger-looking complexion without changing the natural shape of the face. The results build up over several months and are long-lasting.
At the clinic utoquai in Zurich, experienced specialists are on hand to analyze your individual skin structure and develop a tailor-made treatment concept—for natural and long-lasting results.

Sculptra® treatment procedure
Consultation
A comprehensive consultation takes place before the treatment. We analyze your skin structure, clarify your wishes, and work with you to define the best areas for Sculptra® application.
Precautions
We advise our patients to refrain from taking blood-thinning medication for about 2 weeks before treatment. The same applies to alcohol and nicotine consumption.
Treatment
The treatment takes about 10–30 minutes and is performed on an outpatient basis. The injection is considered to be relatively painless; but we can apply an anesthetic cream beforehand if desired. Sculptra® is injected directly into the desired area of skin using very fine needles. The poly-L-lactic acid preparation stimulates the deeper layers of skin and gradually increases the body’s collagen production. For optimal results, 2 to 3 sessions at intervals of 4 to 6 weeks are generally recommended.
Aftercare
Sculptra® treatment is minimally invasive and does not usually cause any major side effects. After treatment, you should refrain from wearing makeup and gently cool the treated areas of skin to reduce any swelling or redness. You should avoid direct sunlight until the skin has completely calmed down. Sports and strenuous activities are possible again the very next day.
The effects of Sculptra® develop slowly, as stimulating collagen production takes time. After about 3 to 4 months, clear results are usually visible, ensuring long-term skin rejuvenation.
Cost of Sculptra® treatment in Zurich
The cost depends on the amount of product used and the extent of the treatment. Prices start at CHF 950. We will draw up an individual cost plan for you during a personal consultation.
