Juvelook
Juvelook is a self-tissue-regenerating collagen booster that combines the biodegradable polymer PLA (polylactide) with HA (hyaluronic acid).
DetailsSculptra Collagen Stimulator
Sculptra uses PLLA (poly-L-lactic acid). Unlike traditional fillers, it doesn't inject an external volumizing substance — it works as a collagen stimulator, triggering your body to produce new collagen and tissue that fills in volume naturally. Because the volume comes from your own regenerated collagen rather than an added material, results look increasingly natural over time, restoring elasticity and softening wrinkles as your skin regenerates itself.

Effects & advantages
Key features of Sculptra
- 01
Volume from your own collagen
There is no added volumizing substance. Your body produces new collagen and tissue that fill in volume naturally.
- 02
25 months, up to about
Long-lasting effect
PLLA breaks down gradually while stimulating collagen production, with effects lasting up to about 25 months.
- 03
Elasticity and fewer wrinkles
Regenerated collagen restores skin elasticity and softens wrinkles. It also helps with the moisture loss that comes with aging.
- 04
Breaks down safely
FDA- and KFDA-approved. It breaks down safely in the body into water, CO₂ and sugar.

Results after Sculptra
Over time, collagen regenerated at the treatment site restores skin elasticity and softens wrinkles, filling in hollows and deep scarring caused by genetics or weight loss. Because results build up gradually, the anti-aging effect lasts longer. It also helps address the moisture loss that comes with aging, improving skin hydration as well.
How it helps
Hollow temples & cheeks
Gives natural-looking volume with no sense of a foreign material.
The principle, in plain words
How does Sculptra work?
Unlike a filler, Sculptra does not fill a hollow right away. It prompts your skin to build new collagen, and volume returns slowly.
Unlike a filler, which fills a hollow area immediately, Sculptra triggers a mild inflammatory response after injection that gradually stimulates new collagen formation. Over roughly 25 months of ongoing collagen production, the dermis thickens and lost volume is restored.
