Sculptra  Sculptra's active ingredient, poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), is a synthetic bio-activator and is not considered a true filler. It was initially approved for facial atrophy in HIV patients in 2004 and recently approved by the FDA (8/10/09) for aesthetic use, including the correction of nasolabial folds & and other facial wrinkles!
Poly-L-lactic acid restores volume loss and smoothes wrinkles/folds from the inside-out, returning desired contours.
