Sculptra for Menopause Skin

Menopause brings significant changes to the skin. As oestrogen levels decline, collagen production reduces rapidly — leading to thinning skin, laxity, crepiness and loss of facial structure.

At Skin Medical, under the expert guidance of Dr Sabika Karim, we offer Sculptra for menopause skin. An advanced collagen-stimulating treatment designed to rebuild skin density from within.

What Happens to the Skin During Menopause?

During perimenopause and menopause:

  • Collagen levels can decline by up to 30% in the first five years

  • Skin becomes thinner and more fragile

  • Jawline definition softens

  • Cheeks appear flatter

  • Fine lines deepen due to loss of structural support

  • Skin may feel drier and less elastic

These changes are not just about wrinkles — they reflect a reduction in the skin’s internal framework.

Sculptra Technology

Sculptra’s core technology is based on poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a biodegradable synthetic substance that has been used in medical applications for decades, including in dissolvable stitches and soft tissue implants. PLLA works by gradually stimulating collagen production, which is essential for maintaining the skin’s elasticity and structure.

As we age, our skin loses collagen as its capacity to produce it naturally decreases. This leads to the more pronounced formation of wrinkles and sagging skin. Traditional fillers, injecting substances like Hyaluronic Acid, often provide immediate but short-term results by adding volume to plump up an area. In contrast, Sculptra’s unique mechanism of action gradually restores facial volume and improves skin texture over time, ensuring more natural results.

Why Choose Sculptra for Menopause Skin at Skin Medical?

  • Doctor-led consultation and planning

  • Evidence-based regenerative approach

  • Natural, age-appropriate results

  • Focus on long-term collagen health

  • Conservative treatment philosophy

We believe menopause should not mean loss of confidence. Instead of masking ageing, we work with your skin biology to restore strength and resilience.

What Results Can You Expect?

Sculptra results are subtle and progressive. Over time, patients often notice:

  • Firmer, thicker-feeling skin

  • Improved jawline definition

  • Softer lines

  • A more rested, supported appearance

  • Improved skin glow due to healthier dermal structure

The goal is not to change how you look — but to restore how your skin behaves.

Sculptra Product Information

Sculptra is found as a fine powder, which is then reconstituted with sterile water by the healthcare provider before injection. This process allows the PLLA microparticles to be evenly distributed, which means a more consistent collagen stimulation throughout the treated area. The treatment is typically administered through a series of injections into the deep dermis or subcutaneous layer of the skin.
